As a former member of the rnli I know first hand of the importance of these crews. We must not lose this vital means of response

This is a life saving service and should be managed by experienced professionals.....get the experienced volunteers back at the helm before its too late.

It was an outrage that the RNLI chose to sack so many experienced volunteers, an potentially put any future sea rescues at the risk of failure.

You have lost too much experience. Please reinstate the previous crew. You have had mishaps with equipment. Don't take chances with the present crews lives. Bring back the staff who can handle all situations before we have a tragedy.

We need an experienced lifeboat crew on duty in New Brighton. We are a busy seaside town and it is only a matter of time before something serious happens!

These people give up their own time to help others from losing their lives. Surly this service is always needed

RNLI need to get their priorities right! Reinstate the crew now! They served the people in and around Mersyside and put others first before themselves. The RNLI need to show some respect to the crews that get their hands dirty, deal with problems, and emergencies which many would run from. Including overpaid suits running what is essentialy a charity using other people's money. Do the public want yes men? Or experienced vountry personel who know what a dangerous river the Mersey can be! I know which I would prefer if drowning and being sucked under and freezing. There are undercurrents and sand bars in the estuary and that even pilots are wary of! It's not for a new crew without old hands.

Please we need an expearianced crew that know the area and waters and know how to use and look after the very expensive kit that has been donated by the local people.

The experienced expert volunteer crew have been treated disgracefully by the management. There is now an inexperienced crew. New Brighton is an essential station for the River Mersey.

Reinstate the experienced crew and make the River Mersey safe again.
