Protecting the Protectors
We wrap up the first day of the show by looking up and out beyond our borders. In this fascinating conversation brought to you by fire chiefs from Stockholm and London, they consider how the threat of war affects daily operations and why there is a continuum from emergency preparedness, civil defence to total defence.
