Firefighters try to raise issues around vehicle safety and presumptive legislation being trashed by @JaclynSymes to Labor Mps like @ShaunLeaneMP, his solution Block them!

@JaclynSymes Just like our hard working volunteers in the SES, Victoria’s hard working Firefighters would rather be battling fires, & protecting the Victorian Community, rather than having to battle the Government - Minister Symes.

@TerpsMLC Firefighters really would like the Andrews Labor Government to replace its ageing fleet of firefighting appliances too, we need to get there quick, it’s how we Protect The Victorian Community…🚒

Let’s hope a Andrews Government #DoesWhatMatters

@MaryAnneThomas @OlgaBVAU Fantastic that your supporting our Brother & Sisters in AV, the previous Liberal Government did untold damage to Paramedics & Professional Firefighters with their dirty politics, but unfortunately we’ve now been betrayed again by Labor!

@JohnKennedyMP Would be fantastic if the @DanielAndrewsMP - Labor Government would have a chat with Victorian’s Firefighters about their ageing fleet of Fire Trucks that need replacing, & the deals done with Liberals to trash our Presumptive Legislation for Cancer Laws.

FRV firefighters in Ballarat and Lucas are responsible for rescuing people from confined spaces and collapsed trenches however, they have neither the equipment nor training to do so, putting lives at risk.

Premier @DanielAndrewsMP rejected firefighting funding “out of spite” putting the public and firefighters in grave danger according to leaked cabinet documents.

Simon Monk, senior advisor to Emergency Services Minister @JaclynSymes, allegedly ordered FRV to NOT fight an attempt by CFA to breach an agreement struck between both agencies; an agreement that was an outcome of the fire service reform by the Andrews gov

Victoria's professional firefighters are ramping up pressure on the Andrews government to provide critical trench rescue equipment and training to Ballarat firefighters.

Today FRV firefighters took to streets of the Richmond Electorate to hand out over 2000 campaign flyers, educating members of the community about the "Protect Firefighter Cancer Laws Petition" and our "Trench Rescue campaign".

@DanielAndrewsMP @BronwynHalfpen1 @JaclynSymes

A tragic 2018 trench collapse in Delacombe saw 2 men die, with closest specialist trucks and crews 2 hours away.
UFU is fighting to get these specialist trucks and crews deployed to NW Victoria BEFORE they are needed again.

@DanielAndrewsMP #springst

[ProtectTheProtectors @VicFireys]

The UFU is ramping up the campaign opposing recent changes to firefighter cancer laws which risk the ongoing viability of a scheme designed to compensate firefighters who develop cancer as a result of protecting the Victorian community from fires

The community awareness campaign continues in Richmond.
Last month the @DanielAndrewsMP Gov trashed laws designed specifically to protect a firefighter and their family if they contract cancer from fighting fires.
Fireys don't forget, and we'll make sure the public don't either.

[ProtectTheProtectors @VicFireys]

.@DanielAndrewsMP, @JaclynSymes, @IngridStitt and @BronwynHalfpen1 have betrayed ALL firefighters by trashing laws that protect firefighters battling cancer!

@TerpsMLC @Betterloosenup3 @tissa38 @ASU_VicTas @WiegardLeon @IngridStitt Some do? in a clean environment well away from the front line at a staging area, we've never had mechanics in breathing apparatus in house fires, chemical fires, toxic warehouse fires.
