When workers are divided, we all lose. It's time to unite. Today, we're joining the @UKTogetherAll. Join us on 28 March in London for a message of hope over fear. Firefighters know all about duty. It’s our duty now to take a stand.

Reform UK Kent council leader is branded "Captain Chaos" after suspending nine councillors including five members of the fire authority. Removing fire authority members means that Kent FRS Chief Executive can't sign off on big spends. "Captain Chaos" is threatening public safety

@ReformUKKent couldn’t run a bath, let alone Kent County Council. These are the elected members responsible for Kent Fire & Rescue Service, we all know what savings mean, cuts. I want to be clear firefighters & @FbuKent members will not accept any cuts to Kent FRS!
Politics UK@PolitlcsUK

🚨🎥 WATCH: Reform UK's Kent County Council leader tells the party’s Councillors to "fucking suck it up" over proposed savings to avoid putting up Council tax “That is the best thing we can do to show Reform can actually run something as big as Kent County Council”

Firefighters risk their lives to serve their communities & protect the public. Years of underfunding & a significant number of firefighter jobs cut is making this even more dangerous. The Labour government must urgently invest in the FRS to protect our firefighters.

Cuts kill. To save lives, the government must invest in the fire and rescue service. Labour Party delegates have today passed a motion calling for a wealth tax to fund our public services. @UnionSteveW speaking at #Lab25

FBU EC member for South East, Joe Weir moved a motion, on Zane's Law at TUC congress on Monday. The motion was unanimously backed. TUC affiliated unions have now joined us in the fight to get Zane's Law into legislation, for better landfill regulations to protect our communities. #TUC25

As another heatwave hits parts of the UK, firefighters are on high alert. Wildfires are on the rise, but the fire and rescue service has been cut to the bone. The government must tax the oil and gas companies driving the climate emergency - and fund our public services.

Today at 18:39, exactly one week on from the time of call, FBU annual conference took part in a nationwide minute of silence to honur the sacrifice of Jennie Logan and Martyn Sadler, who lost their lives in the line of duty on Thursday 15 May. We also remembered David Chester, a member of public who died in the same incident. And our thoughts are with the two firefighters who remain in hospital.

Highlights from day two of FBU conference. Delegates discussed their commitment to working-class solidarity, social justice and anti-racism, with debates on combatting the far right and standing up for migrants' rights.

Angela Rayner is pushing to tax wealth. It’s time for Rachel Reeves to abandon Thatcherite welfare cuts and end austerity. @UnionSteveW says "Austerity will leave pensioners in the cold, plunge disabled people into poverty, and drive living standards down even further."

When research revealed the impact of attending Grenfell on firefighters' health, @GwynneMP said the government would look seriously at the issue. Today, @UnionSteveW called on the government to make good. The FBU will work with ministers to deliver regular health monitoring.
