(BBC) A “chaotic” response to the Manchester Arena bombing was the result of fire crews being “starved of information,” a public inquiry has heard.
Andy Dark, assistant general secretary of the Fire Brigades Union, said his members were ready to “muck in.”
But he said Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service failed to respond properly to the terror attack due to a breakdown in communications.
Crews were left feeling “humiliated,” he said.
Mr Dark told the inquiry in Manchester: “The key problem I think for the fire and rescue service on the night was being starved of information and, to an extent, not accessing information by other means.”
