We salute our member Michael Dowden who was the first incident commander at Grenfell and was confronted by an unprecedented fire. He conducted himself with courage and professionalism in an impossible situation. We stand with him. Let's get this hashtag going. #IAmMichaelDowden

It's firefighters not firemen! Regarding the money - stop tax avoidance, increase taxes on the richest, increase corporation tax and invest in public sector pay. Firefighters have had a real terms pay cut of £6705 since 2008. We don't need praise - we need a payrise!!
