London Burning.

Six dead and many injured in the fire of a high rise building in London.

The public is surprised by the rapid spread of the fire. Speculation is towards modern and or cheap material used in the renovation of the building.

Wow, I wonder if there were sprinklers. That picture almost looks like the fire is too hot not to have had an accelerator of some sort.

How is it possible in this day and age, a building, (recently renovated), has no sprinkler system?
