London Firebrigade could be on strike due to shift pattern changes. The last time they went out on strike the Green goddess were used, but they have since been decommissioned. They will use freelance firefighters to man stations and operate appliances.

Interesting development the London Fire Brigade have announced further strikes. The next one will be on Bornfire night. I'm sure due to health and safety laws, some bornfire displays will have to be called off?

Guess if you want to attend a bonfire do Mark you'll just have to go outside London
It might come as something of a shock but there is a big old world out there and not everything revolves around local London issues

Some people don't seem to realise there are other places apart from London. The BBC often think it is the only place in England.
