I sit also with a heavy heart on this subject. Everyone goes on about how poorly nurses and firefighters are paid and yet no one does a thing about it.
Surely it is time for the people who (vocally at least) support the claims of the firefighters to go on strike FOR THEM!!! Show a solid support base and tell the government that THE PEOPLE WILL NO LONGER ACCEPT THIS SITUATION!!!
But that ain't gonna happen is it!? People will crow about the pay situation in the emergency services but they won't put themselves out to alter it. They will only put themselves out of pocket to produce gain in their own.
