Gloria (in excelsis), the telephone sex worker (wink, wink), has her say in today’s Age, having been “seething for weeks”:

She has a range of illnesses, including emphysema, and was particularly incensed about the proposed $7 GP visit fee.

It is probably ungracious for me to mention it but you can go to a doctor three times for the price of a pack of smokes, or perhaps we could say, for the return on 14 minutes of telephone sex. Why does anyone think free medicine is a right?
