I seriously think people should be charged for using the RNLI. Whatever the reason, payment is valid in my opinion. If you were in serious trouble, most people would be quite happy to pay to be rescued, I know I certainly would. Making people pay will stop the stupid, selfish people walking out over the marshes, who don't bother checking tide tables and know full well, that if they call 999, they will get a free lift back to safety!!! Making people pay a decent amount, would soon stop a lot of people using it as a free boat ride back to shore! I'm guessing the four people today were not local, so also breaking lockdown rules. A 'local' person wouldn't be so stupid as to not check the tide table before venturing out over the marshes!!!
