answer text <p>Since the United Kingdom has a residence based healthcare system, a person who is not ordinarily resident in the UK, including a British national expatriate, is chargeable for any National Health Service hospital services they receive during visits to the UK, unless an exemption category applies, as set out in Regulations. Therefore, entitlement to free NHS care is not linked to the payment of UK taxes.</p><br /><p>Being ordinarily resident in the UK means, in relation to British citizens, living here on a lawful, properly settled basis for the time being. A person can be ordinarily resident in more than one country at a time, depending on their individual circumstances. <br></p> more like this

answer text <p>The UK government has expressed serious concern at the tragic loss of life in Yemen over August, including the tragic incidents of 2 August, 9 August, and 23 August in which so many Yemenis were killed. In the first two weeks of August alone, over 400 Yemenis lost their lives, including young children, and many more continue to face egregious violations of their basic human rights.</p><p> </p><p>We have welcomed the speed of the investigation into the Sa’ada incident of 9 August, and the Coalition’s announcement of regret and action to address the recommendations of that investigation, and are continuing to review the investigation’s conclusions.</p><p> </p><p>We continue to urge all sides of the conflict to do everything possible to protect innocent civilian life and to demonstrate their commitment to International Humanitarian law.</p> more like this
