Who are you to decide if they are a 'community'? Roma people are a recognised ethnic group in Britain, one that experiences plenty of discrimination, health inequalities, and lower life expectancy than any other so called community in this country.

Many have the same types of jobs as people in the wider community and pay income tax just like the rest of us, they pay council tax and VAT just like you or I (unless you are an MP).

Fortunately we do not live in a country where access to health services is based on how much you earn or how much tax you pay. It is based on your health needs. But when you have a group of people with such poor health outcomes, it makes sense for guidance to be given to GPs to spend a bit longer with them, just as they should with anybody else who might have undiagnosed health difficulties, and where I agree with you is that the statement should have included a note to this effect as well.
