West Melbourne firefighters are tonight left with a broken 8 year out of date fire truck yet again.
At the start of shift, firefighters found that every time they switched on the firefighting pump, the truck started dumping its entire water supply onto the ground.
This 23 year old truck is putting lives at risk.
Premier Ben Carroll promised Victorians a “new direction.”
Instead, we’re seeing the same failures that were ignored under Jacinta Allan — now being ignored under Ben Carroll.
Not enough funding and fire trucks being stretched beyond their limits every day.
How much longer do Victorian firefighters and the community have to wait for the fire service they pay for and deserve?
A “new” Labor Government. But the Same crisis.
