I must admit I did find this amusing, but think they have a point, its a big ask to expect a firefighter to continue in their role until they are 67, no matter how fit they may be

Cap doffed to the guy with a powder fire extinguisher.
Genius.
Actually thought they were quite restrained in keeping the hose on spray as opposed jet, must have been damned tempting.

I think the Police showed remarkable restraint, in just standing there. I bet they were just dying to get stuck into those fireman! biggrin

Quite! Had they been hoodies doing the same thing then they would have been beaten the crap out of.

It's quite possible the opposite is true.
There was quite a numbers difference and firemen are not a disorganised mob.

I would sincerely hope British fireman would be a lot more professional and understanding. Protesting is one thing, hosing down policeman, people who work a long side the fireman, in freezing weather is disgusting.

Yeah, it did seem like a bit of a dick move. They were just doing their job!
