Additionally, that fucked up system where an ambulance won't go your way unless you're collapsing - can't get that shit. Actually about paramedics - ambulance usually carry no doctor just personnel that is trained to keep a patient alive.

I drive via CZ every year, IMO, it looks fucked comparing to Poland.
The influx of EU migrants into the UK has meant a lot of Brits end up on benefits or low wage and benefits. Squeezing the Governments ability to spend more. Already many of the migrants from outside the EU are pensioners, further swelling the benefits system.

As you state Poland, Hungary, Czech only take in qualified people. So no pressure on tax revenues. Most of the new arrivals contribute in real terms.
