Less than one a day.

Difficult to justify the expense of the Fire Service if you are being critical of trying to save covid deaths, when many more people died of it today than in the whole of 2018-19 in fires.
I would prefer a good dose of COVID-19 in preference to being stuck on the fourth floor of our Manchester office with a blaze raging across the bottom two floors, with no firemen on hand to put it out.
