A TURKISH transsexual woman granted UK asylum is having at least £60,000-worth of NHS surgery to become a man called Dennis.
The 33-year-old fled to Britain in 2002 claiming she was being persecuted in her Muslim homeland.
She has now won the right to become a UK resident - and taxpayers' cash will fund her gender-reassignment programme. Identified only as G.O, she was born female but will get a prosthetic penis. Her breasts have been removed and she told friends she wants the name Dennis.

Swap op ... surgery will cost at least £60,000
Wow! That's gotta cost ~US$125,000 for one sex change operation for a persecuted Turkish woman.
It's outrageous to be spending £60k on one sex change op, £60k of people's tax money!
The Pilgrims saw this coming and left......
A preview of what is to come...
While old people with heart problems wait to get operations because...well...they are old.
Great. The UK rationing board doesn’t pay for lifesaving medication for cancer patients, but pays for sex change operation.
Preview of Obamacare.
Must be the result of BrownCare.
Nation Healthcare, Change Immigrants Can Believe In.
I have no issue with this type of surgery as long as the person paying for it is the person under the knife and not everyone else.
It would cost the NHS less money to give the Turk a plane ticket to Thailand and 10 grand. Here is another shining example of why Nation Healthcare is a disaster.
No lung cancer treatment, but sure, we’ll pay hundreds of thousands to lop off a penis!
Hey, The State of Oregon (Medicaid..partly federal) actually gave a kidney transplant to a convicted of murder illegal alien.
One hospital has been bankrupted by illegal aliens getting dialysis.

Yup, better known as the U.K. Health Care “Death Panel” in so many wonderful government approved feelgoody acronym.
So instead of making peopel pay for voluntary cosmetic surgery and employing even more Doctors in the private sector to perfom surgery like this, they ration care and Doctors by extension so that an immigrant gets free cosmetic surgery and dead ol’ grandad doesn’t get a new heart valve and croaks 3 months later.
Or in this case an Addadictomy courtesy of the English taxpayer.
