Air ambulance pilot told he 'could not park' on estate by housing saleswoman

An air ambulance pilot who landed on a Whitnash estate was told he ‘could not park there’ by a housing saleswoman

The air ambulance had been called to under-construction Mallory Grange at around 1.30pm on Sunday (January 28) following reports of a man who had suffered a cardiac arrest.

But when the crew touched down they were greeted by a saleswoman for Persimmon Homes who told them not to park there.

Onlooker Michael Bunting, who witnessed the incident, told the Observer he was shocked and lodged a complaint with the company.

“It took myself and a few other bystanders to lift the fence to get the crew through. At this point she is still giving the crew hassle about where they have landed.

“Every second counts and Persimmon Homes should have assisted wherever they could instead of obstructing.”

But Persimmon Homes say the saleswoman was doing her job and putting safety first.

Lets hope one day those in housing need s an air ambulance and told the same when one arrives for them . They are given a bit of power like most authorities then think they are God.

I would make a point of always landing there in future, just to annoy them!

Persimmon incidentally was the biggest single beneficiary of the Tories recent house buying initiative, their shares rising in value by the same amount as the government subsidy to their customers.

:yellow_grin: So would I.

Yes the Tories are nt daft housing under their control making money out of it. Yet they can bulldoze villages and privately owned homes for a train to go through what's the point in owning your own home if in reality you never have a say in what happens to it come the government want to carry out their schemes .

Our whole economy is based on the false premise of housing. At some stage in the not too far future it's all going to come crumbling down.
Of course it'll fit; you just need a bigger hammer.
