@brunogirin @RolloTreadway i dunno if i'd call it excellent - it kind of sucks that it's necessary at all, given that Scotland has somehow found the wherewithal to pay all their citizens' prescription charges. but it does indeed save money for anyone who needs regular prescriptions - especially for asthma, which despite being an intermittently life-threatening condition is somehow not eligible for free prescriptions in itself.

@millihertz @RolloTreadway Yeah, I realise that I show my English bias in my reply, having never lived in Scotland or Wales. We are so used to be happy with a discount, even on things that could be free with the right political will.
