How will they rescue people then?
Or is that not how it works?
Fire person by megaphone: "It is the will of Allah that you burn to death on the 5th floor."
Victim, yelling from window: "Did he leave the chip pan on then? Come on get us down."
Fire person by megaphone: "I cannot climb the ladder it would lack modesty."
Victim, yelling from window: "Are you a Virgin?"
Fire person by megaphone: "Yes."
Victim, yelling from window: "Then get the other 75 to either hold the ladder or get undressed while I jump."

Even Janet Street Porter has got hold of the wrong end of the stick:
I realise we live in an age of political correctness, but am I the only person who finds the new uniform for female firefighters who happen to be Muslims completely ludicrous? The fire service proudly unveiled the specially adapted uniform yesterday – and it featured an ankle-length skirt, a long-sleeved blouse, and a hijab headscarf. Apart from anything else, this get-up looks like it would be extremely hot to wear, let alone when you're facing a wall of flames. And an ankle-length skirt isn't exactly easy to manoeuvre when you need to shin up a pole or climb a swaying ladder.

Ms. Street Porter has never in her life had a ladder that reached the top floor in my opinion.
