Fund the bloody fire brigade
No no no no, that's too sensible
Did you see how much they had to increase the police budget? Sadly there simply is no way we can afford to pay firefighters.
Fluctuating demand makes the use of Volunteer firefighters more desirable
But reducing pollution and better environment management (controlled burns, removing dead brush, letting natural floods occur) will go further than any fire brigade
By the time they find volunteers it's probably too late but a proper fire brigade can get driving very soon after a call
Volunteer firefighters are gained ahead of time, they are just called upon as needed
Who's going to wake the volunteers up and drag them to the fire truck?
Will their landlord volunteer the housing they hoard? Let this shit burn.
Not relevant to the conversation but the volunteers I’ve met have been good people so no
