Make VW pay NHS for diesel car health effect
We want you to recover all NHS future healthcare costs attributable to VW diesel cars due to their cheating on emissions tests.
Why is this important?
The consequences or a company's deliberate avoidance of healthcare measures (such as NOx control measures) must be punishable by compensation and/or costs to all affected parties.
The NHS and taxpayers should not have to carry the bill for this type of profit enhancing avoidance measure.
In this particular case (VW 'dieselgate') it seems likely that the NHS will be the largest single financial loser and should therefore seek to recover costs.
