And with someone at least saying "Don't" we can use that to hang them if they start lobbying

2018-08-26 12:19:39 UTC  

"Hey remember when you stuck by a cabinet that told you expressly not to do the shit you're doing now?"

2018-08-26 12:19:44 UTC  

I mean you can haunt them everyday with this.

2018-08-26 12:26:45 UTC  

I think the next president not to is going to look like an ass.

2018-08-26 12:26:50 UTC  

Provided people remember.

There have been screams from the Left about the Tory cuts to public services for the past decade. But shit like this is not only applauded but asked for

Remember a time when the gay community just wanted to be left alone? These days the pride community feels the need to shove it down everyones throats.

2018-08-26 13:28:56 UTC  

i dont think that painting one fire truck for a pride parade will have any kind of meaningful impact on firefighters budget

2018-08-26 13:29:41 UTC  

Lol, but the money is from a allocated Diversity appreciation budget meant for this.

2018-08-26 13:29:42 UTC  

I dunno bout that... the cost of designers, lawyers, sign-off, the actual painters...

2018-08-26 13:30:21 UTC  

the seven levels of UK bureaucracy to get a mural on a truck

2018-08-26 13:31:43 UTC  

^^^^

2018-08-26 13:32:29 UTC  

Besides, that is a decent paint job from a technique point of view. Interested to see if it was a mostly stenciled design though.

2018-08-26 13:33:12 UTC  

dunno how much it costs to get a stencil made

2018-08-26 13:33:45 UTC  

probably a couple of extra firefighters wages

2018-08-26 13:35:40 UTC  

It’s more in designing the stencils. And for so many it could be a hefty penny. Granted, they could bought them all separately and combined them together to get that look, but it seems to mesh to well from my own experience. My guess was they were all commissioned as one set which can be pretty costly

2018-08-26 13:37:21 UTC  

The main point is not this one truck. Do you really think it was a firefighter that had this idea? No. it was the diversity sector coming out of Uni with no useful education and forcing their way into bureaucracy. This is costing million and doing untold damage. We will be living with this shite for decades to come. Ppl are only now saying they have had enough but this problem has been building to this point for decades and it's not going to roll over and go away if we ask it to.

2018-08-26 13:37:33 UTC  

Dunno- dont know enough about UK prices, wages and bureaucracy. But still to make a judgment would be nice to know how much it actually cost and how big percentage of a budget it is

2018-08-26 13:41:01 UTC  

Does advertising about diversity put out fires?

2018-08-26 13:42:24 UTC  

If it does I might have an apology to write.

2018-08-26 13:44:49 UTC  

My guess is a couple grand for the base parts, not accounting anything else. Getting someone to design and make so many stencils, then a artist to actually paint it. The time it takes from what I estimate to be six layers+ of paint on such a paint job is pretty high. We also aren’t accounting for the cost of the paints themselves or any UK beauracracy to get through

2018-08-26 13:48:58 UTC  

in the UK.... there will be a team... to oversight the team... that makes sure its PC

2018-08-26 13:49:28 UTC  

Now of course, that’s in USD and from my experience looking at how much urban artists are paid in the UK

2018-08-26 13:50:09 UTC  

Yeau Got a LOICENCE Ferr that CEAOMMEINT?

2018-08-26 13:50:28 UTC  

I am so sick of this pride crap. I voted yes to gay marriage in Australia (and would again). But enough is enough.

2018-08-26 13:50:41 UTC  

@Dan they wont stop

2018-08-26 13:50:48 UTC  

i know

2018-08-26 13:50:55 UTC  

can you imagine tons of people in a straight pride parade 😛

2018-08-26 13:51:05 UTC  

You gave them a finger now they want the whole fist up thier ass

2018-08-26 13:51:18 UTC  

Surely there are gay people who are also sick of this.

2018-08-26 13:51:27 UTC  

sorry... I mean.. nazis...

2018-08-26 13:51:37 UTC  

There are ,they turned conservative

2018-08-26 13:52:09 UTC  

Also, confirmed that the UK fire department have a diversity budget that is meant only to be spent on these things

2018-08-26 13:52:20 UTC  

Lmao

2018-08-26 13:52:59 UTC  

Because the UK doesn't have a problem with fire killing people oh wait.

2018-08-26 13:53:00 UTC  

So they can be frivolous with the budget due to not being able to use it for much else

2018-08-26 14:11:23 UTC  

It really is amazing how small a death toll will be in an american disaster

2018-08-26 14:11:33 UTC  

But you hear a story out of India about a tragic papercut that killed 24.
