Like I have said before, the RNLI crews are life savers and should a dinghy capsize with the loss of life, they get the blame for not attending. However, I was part of the enterprise team at Hartlepool and I know the channel crews are under pressure, but it is a catch 22 situation. BUT, I will never return to the RNLI as my views have changed 100% about the role. Who pays for the fuel? Joe Muggins of course! people standing in pouring rain collecting money.
