Just a thought

Jackoniko, in terms of a weighting for the firemen (sorry PC version firefighters) just compare it to the weighting that the stand in firefighters get at their home bases (when ever they are actually there) like Odiham, Benson etc. Also the council tax or whatever rates are called these days that they pay while deployed in a tent worldwide in a.n other **** ole and receiving no benefit from all they pay without weighting in the first place.

A repeat, I know, but we are still allowing the striking gits to use the fire stations to brew up etc, have a kip while they are on night picket duty, and disgustingly wear their taxpayers provided fire fighting clothing (usually just the jackets with a pair of Jeans....cos it looks cool while the mil personnel fight fires in soldier 95.....with, I have it on good authority, the fire retardent properties of a petrol soaked oilly rag.
