Firemen are too male and too white, say chiefs

Britain’s fire service is too male and too white, a report has claimed.

The report, which was commissioned by the National Fire Chiefs Council (NFCC), found that the fire service was “institutionally racist, misogynistic and homophobic”.

It said firemen in Britain were not “diverse” enough because the service’s proportion of women and ethnic minorities is less than in wider society.
