This is possibly the saddest thing I've seen in a long time..an immigrant nurse talking about fleeing her home..she saved her UNIFORM. So she could still WORK for our communities.

I'd fill this country with a thousand of this woman than one of those good for nothing thugs.
God help this poor woman.

I love my city #Newcastle

Penny Mordaunt loses her seat. I and thousands of fellow firefighters will take great satisfaction from that (she ripped up our pensions).

[Matt Wrack @MattWrack]

This takes some brass neck from #PennyMordaunt. She utterly ignored overwhelming evidence presented by firefighters on pensions and fitness standards.

Her various governments have ignored all public sector workers for 14 years.

Two generations of firefighters, visits to Dad and Grandads fire stations 🚒❤️ @NorthWalesFire @Tyne_Wear_FRS

Women firefighters are being forced to return to work early because they can’t afford to live on maternity pay.

It’s putting their health – and their children – at risk.

This is why we’re fighting for 52 weeks full pay maternity leave in every fire and rescue service.

If Poundland did a light festival. #LumiereDurham was garbage tonight. No a patch on how it used to be. My ticket was free, but I still don't think I got value for money.

@CFODaveRussel @Owen_Gunn99 Can I ask a question about your ‘pre alert map’? Are Manchester still using pre alerts, and if not why did you get rid of them ? Thanks

[Fire Brigades Union @fbunational]

We are fighting for 52 weeks of full pay maternity leave across the fire and rescue service:

🔥 To end the postcode lottery
🔥 To value women in the fire service and promote equality and inclusion
🔥 To protect mothers and babies from toxic fire contaminants

Do you back us?

Have so much love for this from @CarlislePolice

[Tyne and Wear Fire and Rescue Service @Tyne_Wear_FRS]

URGENT - Due to BT 999 failure - any emergency calls for Fire Service ring 101 where you will be put through to Police who will pass this to us.

RETWEET if you agree.

Simple.
Don’t scab.

Richard Madeley asking Matt Wrack why he thinks firefighters have right to strike then declares he’s not asking why firefighters have right to strike 🤦🏻‍♀️ Has Dick asked any Tory MPs why they closed fire stations and reduced staff? Solidarity @fbunational

[Secret Headteacher @secretHT1]

Nurses
Teachers
Ambulances
NHS Physios
Junior Doctors (being balloted)
Train drivers
Teachers
University staff
Civil servants
Postal workers
Fire Brigade
Criminal barristers

All of these services striking.

They can’t all be wrong.

The people are not the problem.
