Agree

Yes, and require visitors to show proof of insurance before entering the UK

Disagree

Yes, but only those outside of the EU

While Labour might be concerned about the sustainability of the NHS, differentiating between EU and non-EU visitors for emergency medical treatment charges could be seen as discriminatory and against Labour's broader principles of equality and universality in healthcare.

Disagree

Yes, and require visitors to show proof of insurance before entering the UK

Requiring visitors to show proof of insurance before entering the UK could be seen as contrary to Labour's vision of an inclusive and accessible NHS. However, there might be some support for ensuring that the NHS's resources are protected, but this approach would likely be seen as too restrictive.

Strongly disagree

Yes

The Labour Party has historically supported the National Health Service (NHS) as a universal service free at the point of use, based on need rather than the ability to pay. Charging foreign visitors for emergency medical treatment would go against this principle.
