Sir - Come April 2014, the £8 prescription will be upon us.
The charge will be £8.05, rising to £8.25 in 2015.
The cause for long term ill, low paid or people struggling with household bills will have a stark choice, between
medication, or food on the table.
How can it be classed fair, that people in England still pay prescription costs ,where they have been scrapped in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland?
