December 2018 was the busiest month on record for the London Ambulance Service (LAS), new figures have shown.

Paramedics treated almost 101,000 patients in the capital in December - about 7,000 more than the monthly average the year before.

The second busiest month on record was December 2016, when LAS paramedics saw 99,632 patients.

Paul Woodrow, director of operations, said "Christmas festivities and winter illnesses and injuries" always meant the end of the year was a particularly busy time for his staff members.

Two men have been jailed for supplying Class A drugs as part of a County Line operation being run to Kingston and Surrey.

Lawrence Amoah, 25, of Stafford Road and Bhavin Patel, 27, of Kilburn Park Road were found in a black BMW pretending to be asleep by officers on patrol in Harrow on 26 October last year.

Both men previously pleaded guilty to possession with intent to supply Class A drugs.

At Harrow Crown Court yesterday, Amoah was jailed for five years and seven months, and ordered to pay a victim surcharge of £170.

Patel was sentenced to two years and seven months and also ordered to pay a £170 victim surcharge.

Both men also had drugs and mobile phones seized.

A single mother has been fined £400 for leaving her recycling next to an unemptied bin for collection.

In December Bonnie Janes was struggling to fit all of her plastics and cardboards into the overflowing bin at Hermon Hill recycling centre.

She decided to place the rest next to the bin for collection.

On New Year’s Day the 38-year-old received a letter from the Redbridge Council demanding £400 for fly-tipping.

Ms Janes said: “I don’t think they can justify it, the council hasn’t come back to me with any reason for the refusal of my appeal.

“I’ve been washing and seperating my recycling for years, trying to do the right thing.

“I could have thrown it in landfill but I am a lifelong environmentalist, I was just trying to do my bit.

“It’s their fault that the recycling bin wasn’t emptied for me to put my recycling into.

“Now they’re just trying to bully me into paying the fine. I cannot afford it. They have shown no humanity or decency. I am so cross and sad.

“I feel bullied and persecuted.”

The Trafalgar Place resident: “I’m a low earner with restricted hours because I am committed to the school run.

“Life is a struggle and I do my best to do the right things. And the thanks I get is a £400 fine. I don’t have £400.

“And if I have to pay this, the council will be making my life even more difficult than it already is.

Ms Janes, who is a lifelong vegetarian, said she will take the appeals process as far as it can go to fight the fine, even to court in necessary.

She added: “I feel very strongly about the environment but now I just feel insulted, they’re accusing me of fly-tipping, I couldn’t believe it."

A spokesman for Redbridge Council said: “Fly-tipping is taken very seriously by the council and costs large sums of money to clear up.

“Tough action through penalty notices is a necessary way to keep our neighbourhoods clean and deters people from dumping rubbish.

“There is a sign at the site stating that anyone leaving items next to the bins would be prosecuted. Ms Janes has admitted to leaving the boxes there and the appeal has been refused.”

A 38-year-old man who "upskirted" a woman at Victoria Tube station has been fined £2,000.
