Firefighters are still on the scene of a battery recycling plant fire that broke out Monday night.

Lack of regulation on lithium-ion batteries and resource cuts makes it incredibly difficult to safely respond to these incidents.

When the government offered firefighters a measly pay rise and attacked their pensions, we took them on - and won.

This was all possible because of the political fund.

Pay, health and safety, workers' rights, our public services - it's all political.

To have a voice, we need a political fund to fight on these issues.

The daily life of firefighters and control room staff is shaped by the decisions of politicians.

Every ten years, the union has to run a ballot if we want to campaign on the issues that matter.

Discrimination, harassment and bullying have no place in the fire service.

It’s our service, our union and our duty to transform our service. Equality matters.

You may not be interested in politics, but politics is interested in you...

The government is attempting to ban strikes in the fire service. This April it's time to vote YES to having a political voice.
