Abolish prescription charges in England other parts of the UK are free of charge

Petition Details

Whilst Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have free prescriptions all citizens of England have to pay extortionate prescription fees, if one part of the UK has to pay then all part should contribute.

Additional Information

Either abolish the prescription charges in England or make them the same throughout the UK to lighten the cost for England's citizens, in other parts of the UK they are free of charge to make it fair for the whole of the UK. Are the citizens of England being unfairly discriminated against?
