Stupidity sheer stupidity

We the ordinary people if the United Kingdom have suspected for many years that the Health and Safety laws of this country are a big pile of crap. Forced upon us by a mindless bunch of stupid morons.

But this story of a fire station being built with no fireman’s pole for health and safety reason is the worst example yet.

Fire chiefs in Devon have hit back at claims they built a new station without a pole for health and safety reasons.


Or

Barmy fire chiefs came under a blaze of criticism today after they banned the traditional fireman's pole - because it posed a 'health and safety hazard'.

In one national newspaper a Fire Brigade Official states that the extra 20 seconds that it takes to use the stairs does not count as we still reach our government targets of attending incidents in less than 20 minutes.

I am not so vindictive as to wish his home catches fire and is destroyed because the firemen arrived 20 seconds too late. The idiot who thought this one up should be dismissed with no payment at once.

In fact if I had my way it would be far worst than that.
