THE firefighters in the UK should be backed one hundred percent in their fight for a decent wage.

Let us not forget 9/11 when 316 or more firemen ran up the Twin Towers in New York as thousands of people were running down. Our firemen are of the same ilk. Who knows when it will be our 9/11?

In the direst of situations, they will not let you down. So, if you give a hoot, toot!
