@UnionSteveW @fbunational Proud to be part of this great union ….. #AlMembersMatter 💪🏻

We will not stand by while our members face bullying, harassment or any form of discrimination.

@RebeccaLewi Happiest of birthdays to your dad 🎈🎈🎈 x

Integrity Decency Solidarity Honesty Rectitude Decorum These are words that mean something to me ALL THE TIME. They represent who I am ALL THE TIME. Contrary to the hype... I have behaved properly throughout.. Have a look....I hope you can all say the same #Steve4GS

This is an important outcome. Anna Stec and the team at uclan have carried out this independent research in a very thorough and objective way. The research has taken a number of years of painstaking and meticulous work. The Executive Council commissioned the work because, frankly, no one else was going to. This is work which should have been commissioned by the employer or perhaps, because the hazards are universal by the government. The research is an important step forward for the union and members and will assist greatly in our campaigning. It is vital that the government use this information, and if necessary, further research to establish the health effects of the fire on survivors and residents in the surrounding areas.

What do you want when you need us ….. #FundTheFireService #5

news.oxfordshire.gov.uk/faringdon-fire… A lot of work by officials and members in Oxfordshire to get this work progressed - working with the service through committees (joint H&S, JCC) lobbying of councillors and making the case for improved facilities on stations. Pleased to see this get the go ahead at bus RDS station. @Oxfordshire_FBU @OxonFireRescue

gov.uk/government/pub… It's so important that the union keeps on top of developments on all matters relevant to the fire sector. This recently released report, which has been held back since 2022 (a scandal in itself) provides the academic and scientific arguments concerning a major risk which has long been recognised by all of us in the fire sector and beyond. As with tower blocks, the risk of major and catastrophic fire development and spread can exist soon after construction if the buildings are not built and protected adequately. But during their lifetime all such buildings are vulnerable to serious fires following initial ignition if the building is changed without adequate safeguarding. This is a hugely important report. Members will remember the fires in such buildings for example the Fair Isle Bird Sanctuary Fire in 2019 and the Moorfield Hotel fire in Brae in 2021. In 2020 a housing association had to evacuate 858 residents from Notting Hill Genesis block because the modular construction was so poor. In 2023, in Croydon in South London modular construction has been used for Europe's tallest building at 163m. Under construction and due to open quite imminently in West London is the 106m Enclave: Acton. Bear in mind that in comparison that Grenfell Tower was just a little over 67.3m

@RebeccaLewi Wow …. Just wow x

Vital that the FBU engages with this issue. The English Devolution White Paper proposes: - Mayors will by default take responsibility for Fire and Rescue Services where boundaries align with PCCs. - Exploring Mayors overseeing multiple Fire and Rescue Authorities across wider areas. We must ensure firefighter voices are heard in these discussions. 🔗 gov.uk/government/pub…

As a member of the FBU, I will be supporting @UnionSteveW for General Secretary • Experience • Pragmatism • Composure • Relevant • Leader I encourage all members to vote for Steve. I ask all members to vote to ensure their voice is listened to! steve4fbu-gs.co.uk/2024/12/10/exp…

@benshephard …… 50 and flipping Fabulous …and particularly Hansum 😍….. what a pleasure it is to see you most days on the 📺…. Enjoy your special celebrations 🎈🎉🥂🍾❤️ x

Exactly what should be happening, open questions not pre-set, pre-planned questions in front of one candidate at a time. You would never interview applicants for a job together because it is unfair. This is not a hustings and hustings are NOT part of agreed FBU policy.

@Squigglepig Have a great time x

En route to National School.....the eternal journey struggle....need coffee to drive...then have to stop driving due to too much coffee 🤦

Proud to represent @fbunational @FBUCSNC and @NlandFRS today attending the @SFRSYourSafety Bicentenary Event at St Giles Cathedral in Edinburgh … happy to see a glimpse of the Princess Royal 👸🏻….. Such a fitting ceremony 😁

@AdamT9372 @LeeBarronMP Fabulous representing … especially @Squigglepig 💪🏻

Thanks, Lee, for joining us yesterday. Great to have MPs like yourself backing workers and calling for greater investment in the work they do. Firefighters demand investment. @LeeBarronMP

What a brilliant night … A step back in time and a super cast …. I thoroughly enjoyed it 🎭🤩

@AdamT9372 @UKLabour @Gen_Kitchen_MP @fbunational @NorthantsFBU @northantsfire @FBUEastMidlands Gan on @AdamT9372 … representing at its finest 💪🏻

At @UKLabour party conference and speaking with @Gen_Kitchen_MP about fire service matters. Also spoke about the @fbunational fight for maternity provisions fit for todays firefighters. @NorthantsFBU are calling on @northantsfire to increase maternity pay to 52 weeks.

@Squigglepig You will smash this Hayley … stay strong 💪🏻

My poor brain is so full....there are not enough biscuits in the world to help my cognitive function this week....NEBOSH plus IIH flare up is not a fun combination.

@andy_murray I think your 👖 must now be on 🔥 #LiarLiar 😂😂😂

Never even liked tennis anyway.
