Direct Entry is a Direct Insult to our members It threatens the safety of Firefighters It poses a threat to effectiveness of response Cuts opportunities for career progression An irresponsible waste of public money (approx £175k before being competent for role) @fbunational

Our FBU Brigade and Regional Control Members Rep, John Rickard, is making the most of the fantastic FBU education programme this week. He's attending the 'Representing Memebers' course. These courses are great and are there to help us as reps be the best we can for our members ✊🏻

72 lives needlessly lost. 72 months ago  Still waiting for justice. Forever in our hearts.  REMEMBER THEM. 💚

NEW | 🚨 "Labour will ask Parliament to repeal these vindictive [anti-union] laws within 100 days of entering office! "No ifs, not buts, we will see Minimum Service Levels out as one of our first acts in Government" Labour's Deputy Leader @AngelaRayner at FBU Conference today.

'Our jobs are killing us' 🔴Prevention 🔴Health Monitoring 🔴Legislation - are needed now to protect our #Firefighters. The UK is shamefully behind other parts of the world on this @fbunational @tribunemagazine tribunemag.co.uk/2023/03/our-jo…

Members of McDonald Rd Blue Watch organising a collection @ Scotland rugby match on Saturday with support of the SRU in memory of their friend & colleague FF Barry Martin who tragically lost his life @ Jenners fire earlier this year support can also be given via text 🚒👇

Firefighters know an emergency when they see one. As the IPCC delivers a "final warning", our members are on the front line of the climate crisis. The government must listen to our demands for funding for the service to prepare for the future. More here: fbu.org.uk/campaigns/clim…

12 years of attacks on our pay; falling real wages. Silence from NFCC. #WhatYouPermitYouPromote

Today we have shown the government the real strength of our movement. The energy has been immense - on the streets, at packed out rallies and picket lines. We stand with the 500,000 workers striking on this day. Together we will defend the #RightToStrike

💥 This is huge 💥 The numbers speak for themselves. 🗳️ After more than a decade of falling pay, firefighters have voted by an overwhelming margin for strike action. 🗳️ We stand firm. ✊

Great show of solidarity amongst the UK's firefighters. 73% turnout with 88% of those voting for strike action✊🏻 #FairPayOrFireStrike

RIP Brother Barry Martin ✊🏻
