There's an 8 day fireman's Strike here in the UK. Prime example of how greedy the government is. They won't even give a 20% pay rise to the fireman that risk their lives.
But still, on the 2 day strike last week. 4 people died and a fireworks factory whent up in flames. What will happen over the next 8 days?

Luckily for you, it's winter.
if the same thing happened here, their demands would be met, cause we always get sh*tloads of bushfires over here in summer (it being summer in a week).
Like last year. Half the east coast was burning for like 2 weeks. Right thru chirstmas. Reeeaaalll pregnant dog.
EDIT: Paul? Could you turn off the option that changes "b_i_t_c_h" to "pregnant dog"? I hate that word.

I'm on the governments side. Firemen knew they would be risking there lives before they took the job.
Thousands of people want those jobs and they all know its dangerous. It's true firemen don't get a lot, but they should have done better in school and got better paid jobs. I have no sympathy for them murderers.

The Firemen's demands are totally ridiculous. Nobody, and I mean NOBODY gets a 40% payrise. They get a perfectly resonable amount of money now. Its just plain irresponsibility on the firemen's part, risking lives to get more cash.

It's their union I don't understand...why 40% all of a sudden? Increments over the last thirty years would seem to be the best thing to do.
