I sometimes get a letter requesting free medical report that says
something like: "... and since we are a charity, we are unable to pay
for the report...".
My reply: "blah blah... and since I do not have charity status myself,
I am unable to meet your request for the report...blah blah..."
The letter you received from the MP should be sent to the Prime
Minister for his views. This is appalling!
Then again, there are doctors who have not smelt Jel's coffee yet,
wakey wakey ;-)
