Rejected petition Make highly intoxicated people pay for Ambulance treatment

Everybody likes a drink,nobody likes a drunk but working for the LAS certainly opens your eyes on how many just call an Ambulance because they are drunk etc,this should be chargable to the offenders.While we are picking up drunks our Resources are not able to get to the people who really need them

More details

I work in the Resource Centre and my wife works for the London Ambulance Service as Crew staff on front line.she gets calls every time she goes out to Clubs,Pubs etc helping intoxicated people which is a complete waste of Resources.These Ambulances need to be used for people who really need them
