Q. What do you think?I think it is binge drinking,alcoholism and drug abuse?What do you think has contributed to this problem and what measures do you think has the government and the NHS have taken to combat this problem.Have all the methods failed or is there still hope.Exact details and statistics welcome.
A. Drinking problems. It's deep rooted in Scottish behaviour and is now also a major problem in England. It is a huge social, as well as health problem. Targeting younger people with 'alcho-pops' is a cause. Years ago, when only beer & lager were easily accessible and affordable, people couldn't get so much alcohol into their systems as they can now, with the much stronger and sweeter drinks. They also have more money to spend than in the past so can afford to go out more often and drink more when they do go out.
The Government is waking up to this problem and I would expect more taxes imposed on alcohol in the future. More drink related legislation will be imposed too, with drinking in public places other than bars being outlawed.
The excessive drinking is closely linked to other social problems, such as violence, a sharp rise in sexual disease and unwanted pregnancies. People don't use common sense when drunk.

Can Indian women travel from India to the UK to give birth for free?
Q. because the NHS is free, i want to benefit from it, also i want to get the British citizenship for me and my baby and my husband also my mom.
Answer it.
Answer it.
A. No you cannot travel from India to the UK to give birth for free.
The NHS is only free for non UK residents for emergencies. A pregnancy is not considered an emergency.
f you are pregnant, you would not be granted a visa to travel anywhere near the due date UNLESS you have arranged for a private medical birth in the UK and have the documents and proof of funds as evidence.
It is a popular misconception that the NHS is free. It is not. UK residents pay through their National Insurance contributions and taxes for the privilege of non-charged health care. Basically if you don't pay in - you can't use the facility.
To access free NHS care you would need to be registered with a NHS doctor's surgery and to become registered, you would need to prove legal residence in the UK.
On the subject of British citizenship for your child, you are 27 years too late. Since 1 Jan 1983, anyone born in the UK must have a British parent or a parent legally settled in the UK to be British. Even if the child was able to claim British citizenship, it would give no rights to any other family member, even its mother, to British citizenship.

What do you think of the British Government planning to put abortion adverts on our TV?
Q. I've just heard that the British Government are planning to put adverts on TV about abortions, and I have to admit it makes me feel sick.
I don't see how this is going to stop the younger generation of Britain having sex. The Government should concentrate on the methods helping prevent pregnancies not showing young people a quick fix for when you are pregnant.
I was just wondering what the rest of you Brits thought about this. All opinions welcome.

A. There is already this advert on British TV for the morning after pill.

As for other adverts they will be simply advice and not abortion services, most abortions in the UK are carried out by the NHS and are therefore free. As for the BBC itself it doesn't show adverts, it is only the commercial stations that play adverts.
In terms of abortion as long as it's carried out within the permitted number of weeks, then I have no problem with it. It's certainly better than going back to the bad old days of illegal abortion, when back street abortionists plyed their trade and many women were left mutilated or even dead.

How far along were you before you got your first u/s scan on the NHS?
Q. I'm currently at 14 weeks and still don't have a date for my "12 week" scan. I'm going on holiday in less than 2 weeks so if it's after that it will be 19 weeks. Is anyone else having the same with the NHS?
A. once i had had my pregnancy confirmed at the doctors i was provided with a password and then i was able to go online and book my appointment on the nhs website with our local womens hospital for my first scan.
have you been to the doctors yet? you may even want to try and just book one with the hospital direct you should really try and get in there before you go on holiday because when you get back you'll be ready for your 20 week scan.
good luck xx
