"We were so close to losing a number of properties." Firefighters rallied in Eastleigh calling on Hampshire & Isle of Wight Fire & Rescue Service leaders and the government to stop proposed cuts. Fire Brigades Union say crew levels are already at a critical situation even before reducing those responding to a fire.

Cuts to emergency services will cost lives. New cuts could mean 2,300 firefighter jobs slashed. This year has already seen record breaking wildfire incidents, with resources overstretched. The government must urgently reverse this decision.

Enough is enough. The chair of Buckinghamshire Fire Authority has backed removing oversight and closing fire stations—a direct threat to public safety. We must demand accountability. Call for their resignation now. #FireSafety #Buckinghamshire #Accountability
