Because they'd have to pay £1.70 an hour to park it there.... extortion in the extreme, you can park in the Centre of Winchester for 70p per hour less....

Ooops sorry... Simple really - fence off the area where the heli needs to land, with CCTV attached nearby to catch the little loves on camera. Identify them, find their parent(s), fine them or stop the parent's benefits. That should sort the issue - don't rely on the police, how can they charge a 14yr old Chav anyway?

Fire service are usually there when the helicopter arrives why don't they use their water jets to disperse the idiots

what they should do is hover the air ambulance over the field then whilst the chavs are distracted throwing sticks at it just run them over in a normal ambulance.

CHAV is C ouncil H ouse A dolescent V ermin. Tombstoning is the same as cannon-balling, jumping fro a height into water, making a big splash.

Without even reading as far as to find out what area it was in that the the Air Ambulance was having trouble landing at i kind of guessed and 'yes' how right was my guess. Only low-life from the areas of Lordshill, Millbrook & Redbridge could be caught up in something like this. My mind boggle's as to what's going to be the next Headline from these areas. Trouble is now there is so much trash in this country from kids having kids and couldn't care how their brought up that it's so much out of hand i don't think anyone can put it right. No wonder more people emigrated last year than any other year. Unfortunately it will eventually be all the descent folk going and we're be left with all the trash of society. What a future i hope that maybe i won't be around here by that time either. Agree with the other too just let the Helicopter land and sod who's in the way.

There are many of us out here that feel the same. I'm afraid we all have one, two, three and so on families living somewhere within our community. Unfortuantely Millbrook etc have more than else where. As long as the kids are not under their parents feet the parents couldn't care less where they are let alone what their doing. As long as there all happy claiming their benefits (most of that fraud) smoking their pot and drinking their booze thentheir in there own little happy lazy world. To hell with the rest of us out there working and paying our taxes to keep them in comfort Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhh

Sublime.

A real woman, with more guts than most of the so called men on this site, who look for excuses for the lowlife vermin infesting our lives.

Ooops sorry...

Yeh it takes real guts to continually post your opinions anonymously on the Internet, doesn't it

Ooooh, i think we've hit kenny the ****'s problem.

He struggles to cope with women that are stronger willed than him.

Get over it sunshine. There are women out there, that have been dealing with limp dicks like you for years.

Just remember this, if you think for one second, appeasing the young filth that infect the ghettos of this town, holds any weight with REAL women that have the gumption to stand up to them, you may aswell go home and lock the door of your hen-pecked existence and lose the key.

Another genius who thinks he can tell something about someone from a couple of posts on the Internet. Just what the world needs. Ever heard of projection? You sure do it a lot. Go get laid, for the sake of your health, you angry little man

Says the so called P***k Oops man who has very little going for him by the sounds of it. You couldn't be more wrong on your judgement of me, i am infact happily married for the last 18 years and yes to the same man. We have both worked hard doing unsociable hours never claimed a benefit in our lives so to have to stand by and see and listen to the low-lives of this world as well as help keep them. that's why my opioions are strong not because i've been swayed. If you remember reading my first post of today you will see i expressed my own views. Or are you too doped up or drunk to remember. Also i have a purt bottom from probably working hard and not stuffing my face with junk food and takeaways everyday of the week because i can be bothered to get off my a**e and work.

3 points here, Surely as air ambulance was introduced some time ago thought should of been put in place as to the best place as to where it is to land, coupled with the increasing desire for all to drive cars .. the obvious place has to be in the hospital grounds, as stated before, the car park is far too small and too low, so extend up top floor to make a heliport. This needs to be done, so get on with it, you can charge the disabled too that would pay for it ! In the mean time over the road there is a lot of open green space called Holybrook cemy! Now come on surely there is enough space there to land? And while were thinking of improving things Coxford Road crosses the M27 at Chilworth, it\\\'s a private Road, why is this not an Ambulance access road to the M27? to save the long slow rush though congested Roads? while were about it, clear Shirley high street of clutter too, and let all traffic flow! Seeing an ambulance try and drive up here is unpleasant as drivers cant get out of the way due to the clutter.

What seems strange is, the many who knock his views, tend to be the same ones that tolerate society today, with all it's nasty youth and parents with no control. He is angry, he has a problem, but when you have people that refuse to stand up to the evil that is rife in todays world, i would take the person that took the fight to the problem, over the weak pansies you find on here any day. If you have used a previous name to gain a reaction, i find it sad that you needed to hide behind another poster, to throw abuse at a woman. Maybe the taunts of you being gutless are not too far short of the mark.

Fight fire with fire, i say. The thugs that rock and roll, so despises, thrive off the fact our government has failed to act. If you agree with his views, as i have on many occassions, you may realise his anger is aimed not only at the thugs and their parents, but equally at the lack of a strong government. I've noticed previously, he has backed the police force and their lack of poilitical support, he also fights for the underdog. Yes he fights, yes he's angry as said previously, but i can honestly say, i believe this country needs people that can vent anger to change policy. I have been a reader on the echo forum for a long time and watched with anticipation for his reaction to sleaze, non stories and general behaviour in our city. I can say with the exceptions of a few posts, he hits the nail on the head. Unorthodox, in his temperment, but people are fed up with weakness in a system that should be there to protect them. I have not come on here to argue with anyone, but i feel a fair judgement should be made about readers and writers that see an ever declining society. Compromise has not worked with the lowlife members of society. They've had hand outs, bribes to go back to work, retraining and free education programs, all off the back of us tax payers. This has not and will not work. Maybe it is time to get tough, to isolate them from the working society does not sound good, but most of these people will never change. I will always back the side of right over wrong, whether the beliefs are aggressive or not.
