Wellington is still down its primary life-saving ladder truck.

The entire lower North Island is left relying on "Christine"—and Avalon’s baby ladder truck with a faulty monitor.

Is this what "prepared to serve" looks like? 🚒⚠️ #NZpol

Classic FENZ deflection: blaming station signs for lost public confidence during Mental Health Week. Megan Stiffler & Janine Hearn complained about placards & paint. The irony? They sponsor the Whanaungatanga wellbeing programme—yet own the culture driving the crisis. 👇

MENTAL HEALTH SPIRALS WHILE EPIC FAILURES BY FENZ CONTINUE Independent report urges significant changes by Senior Leadership

Janine Hearn’s shocking hypocrisy: panicking over truck paint while ignoring a 4-year overdue safety hazard.

Firefighters have been forced to crew this truck without a safety sign-off since 2022, yet Ms Hearn is more concerned about the product used on the paintwork. #NZpol

The priorities at the top are completely rotten. Time for real accountability.

Chris Bishop saw the news. He knows a house fire occurred 400m from the closed Hutt City Fire Station—right in his electorate, sending 1 person to hospital.

All we get is "Blah blah blah."

5 years without a fire station in Hutt City is no joke. No more excuses. #NZPFU #NZPol

BREAKING: One patient taken to hospital with smoke inhalation after a house fire at 6.30am—just 400m from the closed Hutt City Fire Station.

5 years after toxic mould closed the station, crews are forced to respond from 10 mins away.

Communities deserve accountability. #NZPol

99.72%? The Inquiry found the statistic misleading. MPs rejected it. We never accepted it.

Yet the pair in this video, reportedly still working for FENZ, are collectively being paid over $850,000 pa. #NZPol

@nzpfu.bsky.socialOct 6, 2026, 8:44 PM

Imagine a firefighter putting out their first real fire on the job because FENZ hasn't provided live-fire training in over a year. That is the reality across New Zealand right now.

@nzpfu.bsky.socialOct 5, 2026, 8:03 PM

Disrespected in every way. #NZPol

Insurance industry watching closely as firefighter pay offer falls below non-union rate at a levy-funded fire service already missing its response targets. #NZPol
