record number of Fire Rescue Victoria fire trucks off the road than ever before — this is a fire service collapsing.

This week we’ve seen record number of Fire Rescue Victoria fire trucks off the road than ever before — this is a fire service collapsing.

Fire trucks failing across Melbourne. What’s left are being shuffled around Melbourne like deck chairs on the Titanic just to maintain any coverage.

This morning, Victoria had zero Teleboom trucks — specialist fire trucks that rescue people from heights and fight fires from above.

Mechanics have worked tirelessly to get one of the five back on the road this afternoon — but now Sunshine Fire Station is left without theirs, with no spare trucks anywhere in the state. Crews are literally forced to put their equipment on a trolley.

Yet again, Jacinta Allan has failed Victorians.

Lives are being put at risk.

And this is the fire service Victorians are now paying double for.
