just to keep you posted...

remember i mentioned that the fire fighters in the uk were going to be going on strike.

well as from 6pm on wednesday just gone, the fire fighters actually went on strike.



i went past the fire station, in my town, on the way to work. all the fire fighters have blocked of the doors to let the engines out, with there cars. locked the back entrance gates, and have got caravan's and lil tenty thins. and there all sat around n well doin tha stuff you do when on strike.

already there been a few deathes..... just on the first night there was 3 deaths in fires. i didnt see the news yesturday, and i havent seen it yet today to know what the figure is now.

just hope it dont last too long.

Yes! During eachof the strikes, we won't be able to use the hall's kitchens, or go into parts of the building after certain times in the evening. GG 11% raise-rejectors.

Hey Bobs, sorry to hear that.

It really pisses me off that people have to hear about stupid ass people who are a sorry excuse for firefighters. I can only imagine that the strike is about money, and I will tell you that NOBODY becomes a firefighter because of the paycheck. Take it from me, I am a volunteer Firefighter and I do the same exact stuff for FREE. My payment is to be able to participate in a great proffession as a hobby (Plus I get to drive a really big truck that makes lots of noise). These idiots are there to do good, stop fires to save property, and to SAVE peoples lives. The minute they stop doing that they should all be fired (no pun intended) for not doing there jobs.

For them to strike and actually let people die in fires should be a crime punishable by death.


Sorry for the rant, but you can see that it hits home. I agree that Full time FF's are not payed enough, but it is not worth human life.

yeah that is really F***ed up that people died directly becasue of the strike...in the US its illegal for firefighters, police, and teachers to go on strike... that is not a good sitiation and hope the best to you in the tough time...
