What the petition asks

There is a vast amount of people arriving in the U.K. Just to use the NHS at no cost to themselves but it is putting a massive strain on the NHS if this was stopped the NHS would benefit greatly
I think everyone knows of this situation as the hospital programme on tv showed e.g. of people abusing the NHS there bills were amounting to thousands and none of them paid they just up and left
