Rejected petition People who are admitted to hospital after too much hospital should pay for their treatment
More details
People who are admitted to hospital as a result of drinking too much should be made to pay for their care. If someone is drunk and taken to hospital by ambulance, they should be made to pay for the cost of the ambulance as well. Hopefully, this would help to stop the drink culture in the UK.
