I see wee nicola up north has called in the army to help with the ambulance crisis. She’s not the only one it’s happening in some parts of England 
, this was instigated by a case in Scotland where a poor bloke had to wait 40 hours for an ambulance, oh and sadly by the time it got there he had died I’ve known plenty of cases here in Blackpool where genuine cases have waited between 4 and 8 hours, one of them was my dad back in April when the ambulance came from Burnley, he had sepsis and had changed colour but hey the fantastic nhs staff brought him back
anyway I ain’t gonna blame any government, I put it down to lunatics using ambulance service as if it was a taxi!!!! Only 10% of 999 calls are genuine emergencies, let’s start fining these idiots that abuse the system or lock them up !! They are a disgrace!!!!! A chipped finger nail or a cough is no reason to dial 999
