US support for Windsor Fire Station campaign

4:19pm Mon 23rd Jun 08:: written by Antony Quarrell


One time US presidential contender and 9/11 Mayor, Rudolph Giuliani is the latest big name to back the campaign to keep Windsor Fire Station open 24/7.

The former New York Mayor agreed to support the campaign after he was approached by campaigners via his company, Giuliani and Partners.

Mick Rowley, Fire Brigades Union (FBU) Representative at Windsor Fire Station, said: “The Windsor Firefighters warmly welcome the support of a man who knows and understands the importance of firefighters and their role following terrorist attacks.

“As a town Windsor has the Castle, two barracks and thousands of visitors to consider in this respect.”

In another boost Matt Wrack, General Secretary of the FBU, has written to praise the Windsor Fire Station Campaign.

Mr Rowley said that the FBU Executive was keeping the Windsor campaign under intense scrutiny and commented: “If the risks within this enigmatic and high profile station are ignored, then a dangerous
precedent may be set for the rest of the country.”
