[Gareth Tovey @GarethTovey4]

My comments, as FBU Executive Council Member for Wales, on the CFRAI's report "Responding to domestic dwelling fires : South Wales Fire and Rescue Service", and the broader landscape here in Wales.

@GoytreFC I know this referee tried to help you fork pitch you wanted gane on at 5.30pm then it pissed down for 2 hours. You don't mention how the referee delayed ko to let weather pass helped you fork pitch to get game on. Pathetic statement never tells the full true story.

Higher rates mental illness, such as PTSD - The constant threat of dismissal if competencies of the broadest skill set ever, are not maintained - constant threat of dismissal if we don’t adhere to service values, generally not adhered to by our leaders…

Great thread 👏🏻

[Gareth Tovey @GarethTovey4]

Please take 2 minutes to watch this short video. It explains why the FBU, firefighters and control staff, have been forced into balloting for strike action over pay. Year on year pay cuts are simply not sustainable.

[Matt Wrack @MattWrack]

Why should workers accept pay cuts while corporations enjoy a profits boom and millionaires get richer and richer?

WOW: FBU members have SMASHED the consultative ballot on the disgraceful 5% pay offer ✊✊✊

A massive 79% have voted to reject it, on a 78% turnout.

Watch this space for further updates.
