firstly, before you call me racist, heartless or whatever, i'm not. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-19954043 i'm appalled this has happened to the poor lass, but why is she being treated in our country? i thought we were struggling with patients as it was? i've read all the story, especially about how it's been recommended she comes here for treatment, but we're going to end up paying for it out of our taxes... and no, it's not the same as one of us been recommended to go to the USA or another country, we have to pay for that. is it all just a PR exercise or an excuse to use a shiny new ward they've built?
Don't know. Half our doctors come from Pakistan so you'd think they'd be able to treat her over there, maybe it's a security problem since they're still threatening her and they couldn't keep the Taliban out of the hospital.
Not a wind up, rules are rules. Luckily we dont live in a society like that but if you do you should obbey the rulings.
Because she's got the courage to stand up to thugs and bullies and she deserves our help and our respect. I wish her well and I hope she makes a full recovery so that she can go on to be educated.
Why is she being treated abroad though from a pakistan point of view? Is it that their hospitals aren't as good or that they worry about her safety?
Cheers. Was just wondering because as someone else said, we get a lot of doctors from over there so they obviously have the skills, shame they don't have the facilities to match really.
Actually laughed at that. Must try harder, Greekman. Watch the New York Times documentary about her, she deserves the best treatment possible, wherever that may be.
So when she and her family all move over here and claim benefits, gets a free mansion and whatever else they can sponge i will bump up this thread and see if peoples opinions are the same.
