re: #245 wheat-dogg
Morning here, and I am catching up on news from the other side of the world.
I just learned from the BBC that the Grenfell Tower did not have a fire sprinkler system, because they are not required in the UK.
WTF?
What git proposed that regulation? Sure, sprinkler systems are expensive to install, but they save lives.
Heck, even our new classroom building here in China has sprinklers in the ceilings.
Well, my understanding (though I may be wrong) is that the Home Office covers such things. At the time the building was renovated, Theresa May was Home Secretary.
