Real Australian and NZ Heroes

And the story of exhausted fire-fighters, vollies and pros, being robbed as they slept in a motel in Ballarat, by useless oxygen thieving scum makes you want to sh👀t them on sight if you ever came across the sewer crawling 💩gibbons.

From the 2013, Dunalley, TAS. They're revered by the public but not recognised enough by the Powers That Be.

💯% I don't give AF about who wore it best.

Mike. Any valid reason Australia isn’t investing in these instead of the never going to happen nuclear subs? $392 m for 7 of these planes. https://www.ekathimerini.com/news/environment/1250332/greece-to-acquire-new-canadair-firefighting-aircraft/

Here’s thought. 2% levy on revenue on all fossil fuel and mining companies to fund a national natural disaster rapid response force.

Because a board position on an arms manufacturing company pays more than a company that manufactures fire fighting equipment does - thats all that matters to whoever the minister is

A fair thesis. Gone are the days of actual public service.

Career politicians - pipeline from Uni through staffer onto safe seat then board position. Totally owned by there investors - sorry "donors". All I see is self interest from our so called leaders. As you can probably see this gets right under my skin!
Have a good one!

Love the passion mate. Don’t apologise. You too. Looks like a hot summer down there.

What a battle they're fighting at the moment. Here's hoping these cooler conditions help them gain control in the Grampians (Gariwerd)

Hear, hear. I salute these true heroes!

Yes. Absolutely. But, as usual, treating the symptoms and not the cause.

They absolutely sacrifice a lot from their devotion to saving people & property & by the look of that soot around their noses it's likely that their health will suffer long term effects from bushfire smoke! Growing up where I did & at the time I did we all breathed in plenty of particle heavy smoke.

Yep. Volunteers, who gave up their family Christmas, left their homes and family behind - on Christmas Day no less - in the service of others, not for money, fame or fortune, just in the service of others.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your bravery and all you do.
