CLAIMS that Sark’s refusal to use the Brecqhou helicopter contributed to the death of a resident have been dismissed by Guernsey’s chief ambulance officer.

SARK’S refusal to use the Brecqhou helicopter for emergencies contributed to the death of a 72-year-old resident, the Sark Newsletter has claimed.

Disclosures by this newspaper that the Seigneur of Sark is willing to stand down if the Barclay family gain too much influence in that tiny island are an interesting twist in a story that appears to be reaching a climax.

SARK’S government working in conjunction with Guernsey would ‘not by any means be the worst thing in the world’, the island’s ‘deputy chief minister’ has said.

SARK is not at war with Brecqhou so ‘peace talks’ are not necessary, according to the island’s ‘chief minister’.

SARK’S government is in line for another major reform after proposals to split the dual role of the Seneschal were announced.
