A 60 year old grandfather died of a heart attack because the paramedic sent to the scene waited outside his house for 16 minutes doing a risk assessment before entering the premises. Roy Adams a chauffeur called for help when he started to suffer chest pains and shortness of breath as he was alone at home he was told by the operator to leave the front door open so paramedics could have easy access, the first man to arrive at the scene saw the open door and fearing a burglary in progress would not enter, he then started his risk assessment, by the time this was completed and back up arrived it was to late and Mr Adams died. Now I’m not sure if there is blame to be apportioned here, or was it unavoidable because of the lawless and violent times we live in, but what a world when medics are fearful of entering houses whilst responding to 999 calls. In the last dozen or so years the general fabric of this country has been in decline, since Labour came to power things have gone from bad to worse, under Blair the criminals became a priority over the victims to such an extent that we have no real deterrents anymore. Why would anybody be scared of prison, laptops in cells, satellite TV, three square meals, medical care with no waiting lists. The worst thing Labour done amongst many bad things was to adopt the ridiculous human rights bill in its entirety, because of this bill Blair encouraged by his wife “coincidentally” a highly paid human rights lawyer sold this country down the river. I can remember seeing a photograph of Wembley in the 1950’s hosting a F A cup final a 120,000 people crammed in with fans almost up to the touch lines, being kept in check with a handful of policeman, how we yearn for those days back.
