Tom Launches More Fire Cover Campaign I was recently made aware of the possibility that one of the existing fire appliances at Corby Fire Station might be removed and replaced with a Cobra Intervention Vehicle – indeed, on the 14th November, I visited Corby Fire Station to talk to FBU representatives and firefighters about their concerns relating to this proposal and signed the locally organised petition against the changes. To my mind, and informed by what I heard, I believe that, given that Corby is a rapidly expanding town, we need more fire cover, not less. Furthermore, it is also important to remember that Corby Fire Station covers much of rural East Northamptonshire too. So, I am campaigning to protect the second fire appliance at Corby Fire Station and believe the introduction of the new Cobra Intervention Vehicle, should not be at the expense of existing provision - it should be in addition, to provide a further option for our local firefighters, when responding to calls.
