Rejected petition Prescription costs in 'United' Kingdom

More details

The government must explain the legality and morality of England retaining prescription fees whilst allowing individual member states of a so-called 'United' Kingdom to abolish theirs. To further explain why this has not been presented to the European courts as either a violation of human rights or as a blatant act of racism.
