What the petition asks
After a recent visit to my local accident and emergency department last week on a Friday night approximately 11:30 PM I was absolutely dumbfounded at just how many people were being admitted into the accident and emergency department or coming by ambulance because of drunken related injuries.
We have such a stretched national health service and the budgets and the balance sheets are the worst that they have ever seen surely there must be a simple way to claw some of this money back. By introducing a fee for people who abuse this service with the drunken injuries this will not only reduce the amount of people who come in for the bumps and grazes but it will also and significant much-needed funds. Please share and support this petition as much as you possibly can & help save the NHS
