    We’re ready, but we need Victorians to get prepared for bushfires this summer. Today I joined our agency colleagues and Emergency Services Minister Lisa Neville for the press conference on Victoria's summer preparedness activities.

    Two large air tankers from NSW are assisting with the fires in the North East of the state. Sharing resources when they are needed most is another way we work together with our neighbouring states to support each other through the fire season.

    Totally agree. It’s the same with the Firefighters...it was ok for them to fight the fires in but now they are ‘thugs’. Our Vic CFA/MFB Fireys did not care who ur political party was, they just did their job.

    What if I told you this is actually a picture of a brave woman fighting the ferocious fires? Forget your bullshit and just thank everyone for putting their lives on hold and their butts on the line to get the job done.

    Our media is full of images of brave men fighting the ferocious fires. As always, it's usually men who do the really dangerous, difficult work protecting everyone else. Give thanks for the good in men.

    This certainly puts the size and scale of the into perspective, and shows what crews are contending with. My thoughts are with all of the communities affected by these fires. Everyone contributing to the emergency response is doing an outstanding job.
