Firefighters line the Royal Mile in Edinburgh for the funeral of Brother Barry Martin. Today we mourn the loss of a dedicated member of the community and a brave firefighter. We come together in his honour.

The far right are assisting billionaires. When profit rules, your health, safety and well-being fails. At FBU conference this year, delegates voted on a motion to oppose the far right and their politics of division.

Fire control staff are there whenever anyone calls 999 for fire. This is the reality of their vital work 👇 Now Merseyside fire control staff are going on strike to defend their life saving service. Show them you stand with them - RT with a message of solidarity

Water companies have taken more than £70bn in dividends, leaving the public with leaking pipes and polluted rivers. It's time for the government to nationalise water, to ensure firefighters have access to clean water supply to safely tackle fires.

Fire doesn’t discriminate, and neither do we. Firefighters protect the public no matter who you are or where you’re from. The far right wants to divide working people with hate while they slash public services and fill their pockets.

The richest 350 individuals and families in the UK hold a combined wealth of £795 billion. With wealth like that, how can Rachel Reeves justify further welfare cuts, affecting only the poorest individuals and families? FBU Steve Wright challenges Reeves' spring statement on LBC.

Disrespected. Hurt. Disappointed. Taken for granted. This is how the govt. has made firefighters and fire control staff feel after years of attacks on our pay and profession. But if we stand and fight together, we can win change. Our moment is now. #VoteYes #FairPayOrFireStrike

Firefighters were asked to cross the picket line and collect bins in Birmingham. Firefighters are trade unionists and we will never disrespect our comrades fight for fair pay. Solidarity with Birmingham's bin workers! #megapicket

Bosses and politicians have never given us anything. Everything we have, we've had to fight for. Share and tell everyone in your workplace to stand up and join the fight. #VoteYes #FairPayOrFireStrike

It's time for water to be brought back into public ownership. Firefighters need clean, high-pressure water to tackle fires safely - but private water companies have failed to deliver.

When workers are divided, we all lose. It's time to unite. Today, we're joining the Together Alliance. Join us on 28 March in London for a message of hope over fear. Firefighters know all about duty. It’s our duty now to take a stand.

Last week has been the final bullet for Keir Starmer. FBU members can't wait till May for change. FBU general secretary Steve Wright on BBC One LK, "we lost more firefighters last year under a Labour government. We will be talking about industrial action."

Last night we moved our employers again and got a new pay offer. This only happened because firefighters across the UK have stood united.✊ We are a democracy, and our members will now decide on it. We will have an honest, sober discussion as a union. Matt Wrack on Sky News

🚨 BREAKING: FBU WIN in Oxfordshire FBU members have been campaigning for months against dangerous proposals for cuts by Oxfordshire County Council. Firefighters' duty is to protect the public – and that is exactly what members have done. When FBU members fight back, we win.

Research shows that firefighters who attended Grenfell are now suffering debilitating health effects. The government and employers have been asleep at the wheel when it comes to protecting firefighters from occupational diseases. Matt Wrack calls for action on BBC Radio London

Assistant general secretary, Ben Selby, has announced the results of the FBU 2025 general secretary election. Steve Wright has been elected as the new general secretary following a ballot of union members.

Birmingham bin workers cannot be expected to accept an £8000 pay cut. An attack on bin workers, is an attack on all workers.
