Emergency services - Government gambling with lives
Compounding that fact is the opinion of senior voices concerned with our fire safety and fire fighting system that the lack of co-ordination and co-operation between the emergency services could actually put the public in danger, and has done so in a number of instances.
Despite the fact that the Government is well aware that people here are more likely to die as a result of a fire than in most other developed countries, it continues to do nothing to radically improve a fire fighting service which is out-dated, under-manned, and comprehensively inadequate to cope with the necessities and demands of a modern country.
