Well readers, we have had Simon had an FRU ....... click HERE to read the article, but Simon also
has a rather nice car.
In fact Steve, Martyn and Craig also have nice cars, that
cost us the tax payer thousands a year
in leasing fees.
IF these high
performance vehicles were used to race through the wind, hail, rain, snow and
even “shock horror” sunshine, we
probably wouldn't mind too much.
BUT
WE DO MIND ...... WE MIND A GREAT DEAL
BECAUSE
Can you guess how many times
the Chief Fire Officer
turned
out to an incident in 2011 /12 ?
10 times, 15 maybe even 20 !
NOPE
the answer is
CFO Pilling (call sign 0101 ) according to his own oracle database did not turn out to an “incident” once in 2011/12 !
|
SO, that begs the
question .............Should he have a car that is deemed “tax free” because he
allegedly needs it for operational reasons?
In fact we know that some of the new NHS Commissioning Boards are
recalling lease cars and making staff use their own cars for “operational
use” this includes NHS Senior managers and even includes some community nurses
and midwives. Now we at FCCL would say a community nurse probably uses their
car for work every day, and Simon and Co don't.
So, below is a table of how much the cars cost for the WYFRS
top table and how often they have been used to attend an incident / emergency ......... and we don’t
mean that quick sprint to the supermarket when they have run out of milk.

And we have to admit although we are outraged by what we
have learnt, we here at FCCL are not tax
accountants. So we have done the responsible thing and sent the information
about the issue and expressed our concerns to Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs...................
lets see what they define as operational use.
We would also like to know why the CFO gets a flashier car
than the others ................? Surely
his ego doesn’t need the boost of a better car – how petty, and in these days of
belt tightening, what a waste – look after the pennies and all that!!! Mind you when you earn of £160k a year do you actually know what a penny is ? Click HEREto learn more about salaries at the top table

Dont forget his trip to New Zealand or somewhere like that - we probably paid for that too.
We at FCCL (Fancy Cars Cost Lots) need our big cars. Have you tried getting a set of bagpipes in a 3 door hatch?
Simon got an effaryou
To save us lots of money
In light of what you say above
This saga isn't funny
You don't need Aston "Martyn"
Coz you're not Daniel "Craig"
Are flash cars really needed?
An answer, don't be vague
Before we close a station
And lose the guys that work
Lets say goodbye to two Jags
And cut back on the perks
We all know the tune........
Oh Lord won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz
I don't earn enough, need some meet for my ends
I'll use it for fire calls, and so will my friends
Oh Lord won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz
Oh Lord won't you buy me a Range Rover Sport
It snows once a year, suits the skis I just bought
Please don't tell the taxman, don't want to get caught
Oh Lord won't you buy me a Range Rover Sport
Oh Lord won't you buy me a red F R U
I don't like the white, and my eyes clash with blue
They're useless at car fires, or so say the crew
Oh Lord won't you buy me a red F R U
Oh Lord won't you buy me an Audi Q 9
I need a big boot for the beer and the wine
There's an offer in Waitrose, so cheap it's a crime
Oh Lord won't you buy me an Audi Q 9
Sarah, you need to tell the taxpayers alliance too. They will be very interested.

Reject the cuts, you know it makes sense.
They pay tax and contribute to leasing costs for the cars and nzfs paid 20 k for CFO pillings services so get your facts straight - public servants working harder than private sector comparitors for far less pay should not be attacked in this way
Are the people behind this site so daft they think that the top fire managers can run a tax fiddle without anybody knowing.I am sure their car deal will be all above board and as public workers the taxman will make sure they pay their full dues because unlike most small businessmen who do run cars paid for by calling it a business expense and paying less tax public workers are screwed for every penny. These personal attacks are not doing you any good - its like you have some kind of personal grievance against them
