FFS, another inquiry? Just buy the bloody trucks.
Exactly. Tell that to the suits in Wellington.
Typical. My mate's a firey and he says the trucks are held together with duct tape. Embarrassing.
Yeah nah this is a joke. They've had years to sort this out.
Wait, we're still using those old things? Saw one the other day that looked like it was from the 90s.
less dangerous than the trucks apparently
MPs probin' fire trucks instead of gettin' new ones. Classic.
Log in to leave a comment.
old story, different government.
I work in logistics and this is pure incompetence. Procurement is broken. Firefighters deserve better.
dollar spent on inquiry is a dollar not spent on trucks.
Why is this even a parliamentary inquiry? Just a waste of taxpayer money on talkfests.
mate, the probin' is the problem. They should be buyin'.
Honestly gutted for the firefighters. They risk their lives and can't even get reliable vehicles.
