Thing is they respond with emotional claptrap rather than looking at things with an open mind.

1. When I used to go years ago you could see why people were there - broken limbs, blood eveywhere, etc. Nowadays, they are jam packed but not with that sort of case.
2. Mrs Dally thinks it's because doctors no longer do out of hours work and so people with minor ailments go to A&E.
3. White, middle class British types are under-represented - presumably because they are risk-averse, play by the rules, etc.
4. On Saturday evening the place we were at was rammed and Mrs D counted only 8 white people, 5 of whom were Polish. None of the staff were white and English. The one white nurse was Irish, all other nurses / doctors were from ethnic "minorities" (sic).
5. Many self-inflicted case - men dangerously drunk at 2.00pm, and vomitting, for example.
