England: £7.20
Scotland: Phased out by 2011 Wales: No charge since 2007 Northern Ireland: £3 from January 2009, phased out by April 2010 So the English get taxed again whilst the rest of the country gets away with it. No change there then. And another thing. I was in a queue (again) waiting to pay my £14.40 tax for my pills to keep me alive and the woman in front of me was asked - Do you pay? To which the reply was - No I don't as I don't work and I'm just off to the Pub. So I did some research and found out that less than 10% of peope actually pay. Give me strength.......... |

Er... perhaps we should get back on prescription charges?
 I've been lucky so far and have not needed them (prescriptions), but I understand that sometimes, because there is a flat minimum fee or something, that it can be more expensive than buying privately (over the counter, so to speak).
