I recently took a friend to the outpatients’ department of Worthing Hospital.

I was asked to check in on an automated machine (one of three).

Upon initialising the procedure, the screen shows, “English or Polish.”

Now, just what is that all about? And at what extra expense to the NHS? Next, we will have Urdu, Latvian, Spanish, French, etc.

Nonsense to say the least.
