God help you if your home is on fire

You know you have to be a very special kind of person to be a fireman or firefighter, as they must now be called these days. In the old days it was an easy calling, you had to be fit, courageous and compassionate but times have changed and you now need to be a very different kind of creature.
You have to be strong enough mentally to ignore for over six hours the pleas of a woman begging for help before watching her die.
You have to have the patience to stand on the bank of a shallow ditch and wait until a man lying in 18 inches of water is really dead before doing anything.
Yes you have to be a real special kind of person. You need to have the same attributes as someone like Group Commander Paul Stewart who saw the death of the woman as a "successful outcome" because they retrieved the woman's dead body.
Or someone like Dany Cotton, the Fire Services most senior female firefighter, who said:
"the role of the fire service is changing, and it's no longer simply about attending emergencies. In fact, the work we do now isn't just complemented by a diverse workforce, it demands one"
Really special kind of people I think you will agree. Now one thing you may disagree with me over is what I write next.
I have nothing but contempt for the firefighters of today because they may have the courage to go into a burning building or stand and watch someone die but they do not have the courage to put a stop to what is being done to a once efficient and effective Fire Service.
In this article linked to here, you will read that the Fire Service now intends to employ non english speaking immigrants as fire fighters and will use flash cards and sign language to communicate with them during emergencies.
They will also be employing deaf and disabled people and of course more people from what they call, the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transexual community, for which they will be spending tax payers money in setting up a support network for the perverts and paedophiles they are hoping to employ.
A pieced of human excrement named Dave Chappell who is the fire safety officer for the Fire Brigades Union sees the above as a good thing whilst another idiot, Lee Howell, who is a Chief Fire Officer says:
"Our goal is to prevent loss of life and injury and the principles of equality and diversity are intrinsic to the way we work, from understanding the needs of different people, assessing risk and delivering services, to recruiting and developing our employees."
Well there may be one or two real firemen still out there but they are becoming fewer each day as the Common Purpose madmen in control of the Fire Services work to destroy it and alienate it from the British Public.
