Up the strikers

[pipster]

When I had my Cardiac Arrest there were I've been told ( I wasn't taking much notice myself !!!) a first responder vehicle, another 4×4, an Ambulance and an Air Ambulance ground vehicle outside my house

Looks like I had over a quarter of the available ambulances then!

Where were you when this happened and what year ? - suspected heart attacks are no longer necessarily classed as code reds.

Plenty of confirmed cases out there of people lying in gutters waiting for an ambulance - like the poor fella knocked over in grangetown, my mates mum broken neck waited 8 hours - in the end they sent an ambulance from monmouth - that got lost going from cyncoed to the Heath or the 2 years who had a seizure and was totally unresponsive - no ambulance arrived at all.

Whoever it was on Cathedral road that got the 2 paramedic cars plus an ambulance must just have been lucky perhaps

15 August 2022 at about 14.15 in Llanishen. It was classed as a category 1, the highest possible. It wasn't actually a heart attack,Cardiac arrest can take place without being classed as a heart attack.

I didn't wake up until sometime in October!!

You were very lucky to even get a response. as at that time their response levels were around 50% for code red when they should be over 90% , maybe they just happened to be passing your house when it happened...

Down with the strikers in.this current climate where folk in other industries are struggling to pay thier bills and all this will do as we fatten the pay f half decent earners will bring inflation, postal increases, train fare rises.. the inflation..

What they should consider giving up some of the over generous pension values that the tax payer pays to support the 2.3 trillion liability for those pay rises ...

You notice not much I'd mentioned by union leaders about that wonderful 2.3 trillion pension support .in the public sector. .

Interesting and unsurprising viewpoint. I do wonder whether you would support the Amazon warehouse staff that are striking for better pay and rights. Let us know what you think about that.

In case you haven't noticed, "inflation, postal increases, train fare rises.. the inflation.." is already here. Inflation is literally why people are striking as their usual salary isn't going anywhere near as far as it did 12 months ago.

I have introduced a 6.5% increase (plus benefits) for all of my staff earning less than £40k.

Speaking of strikes, your brain cells might need to get off the picket line and get back to work.

It was interesting to hear Mick Lynch when he had to admit the pension of his rail workers - 25% contributions - 15% employer contributions and 10% employee contributions - private sector it's 5% tops

The fact that I was clinically dead probably concentrated their minds!

I've been told that one Ambulance was legally 30 minutes away and got to me in around 1/ 2 that time!!

If my son hadn't been there to give me CPR I wouldn't be writing this post now.
