"The Audit Commission says up to £200m a year could be saved by changes including reduced night cover, cutting sick leave and using cheaper vehicles."

Oh my, yet there was me thinking that the Fire Brigade is there to Save Peoples Lives :o more people will be in Danger if they Reduce night cover, its absolutly propostarous, excuse me for my spelling.

"Their solutions included changing shift patterns depending on need and cutting the number of staff on duty when fires were least likely to occur."

So when a Serious Fire happens were stuffed basically.
