Facebook users reacted with anger. Julie Hayhoe said: “This is an absolute disgrace when you're providing a great service to our community.”

Becky Birkett said: “So sad when all you try and do is help us all. I have a car sat outside doing absolutely nothing, if any of you need to borrow it let me know.”

Beryl Cook said: “Totally brainless. Don't they realise that they may need their pointless little lives saving one day and they will be running to our NHS doctors and nurses expecting help.”
