Just read this in the Daily Mail - horrible attack, and the woman's life still in danger. There's a number on there just sharing in case anyone saw anything....

Saffron I thought the same .


A few months ago it took an hour and a half for an ambulance to arrive when my 94 year old mother broke her femur very badly .Not the same I know .


The poor ambulance staff said that every visit they did the first thing they had to do was aplogise for the delay .There seemed to be some change of protocol re hand over at the hospital which was causing great delays .

It's horrifying but unfortunately not as as rare an event as we all hope it should be...


In the early 2000s a study found the leading cause of death amongst pregnant women was murder (20% of all deaths for pregnant women in the US). It IS really appalling what pregnancy brings out in some people.

Some Evil people in this world. So sad for the poor girl this has happened to. I really hope those nasty's that did this scum attack are caught and suffer locked up for it. This country needs to toughen up dealing with these crimes.

I felt physically ill when I read about this yesterday. Never ceases to shock, how some people are capable of such disgusting behaviour.


Quite possible that it was treated as a low priority because the caller didn't convey the full details. Wouldn't be so quick to jump to conclusions regarging the ambulance service.

Mmm - the FIRST phone call was assessed as low priority .

Which is what happened with my mother ( not the same I know ,tho she did die within 24 hours of the fall ) .

Repeated calls , original ambulance diverted to a " more urgent " call .


And wasn't there a case earlier this year of an accident in Camberwell New Rd where the police ended up taking an injured person to hospital themselves because of the delay ?


I should say that I have the greatest respect and appreciation of the Ambulance Service ,I'm not trying to criticise them .

London Mix - don't even get me started, been working with Refuge for the past 2 years, two thirds of all domestic violence starts in pregnancy.


Glad to hear someone has been charged, hopefully she makes a full recovery.

Jeremy.. We had an emergency at Curry Club when one person was suddenly taken very ill..


On calling the Emergency Services the caller was asked what seemed like an list of

pre-prepared questions and would not listen to any details the caller was trying to convey

saying. "I did not ask you about that. Just answer the questions"


I can only assume the answers to the questions merit points and that the number of points

determines the urgency of the situation.


Not the best system IMHO.

There aren't enough ambulances and paramedics are under ridiculous pressure. I know a couple and they are struggling.


I thought the police ended up taking this poor woman to hospital having waited an hour for the ambulance. Which to me begs the question why didn't the police just take her sooner?

Ideally there'd be some degree of communication between the police force and the ambulance service, so they'd know approximately how long the ambulance would be (and elevate priority if necessary). But I guess this isn't the case... hard to make a call when you're in the dark.

The police have already indicated that it was not a random attack. The emotion involved in wanting to kill an unborn child requires a strong connection so its likely to be the father or someone who felt threatened by the pregnancy based on their relationship with the father or the mother.

Ex-boyfriend and father of the baby, according to the Beeb. I suspect he'll be watching his back constantly when they throw him in Wormwood Scrubs. Someone will sort him out.


I only hope they have enough evidence, seeing as there was two of them and they were wearing motorbike helmets. So if anyone did see anything, phone it in to the police. You may make a big difference.

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
