@chris_billany @MartinSLewis Has he ever charged you for this info…? Answer is no. Then let the man have a holiday, he didn’t cause this so why should he be working 7/365

Ps I am still on my social media & work break. Yet I felt this news was too big and too damaging not use my platform to try and put pressure on for sensible urgent action from political powers. Back to silence if I can.

Good news concerning challenge to Government position on PEEPs.

Toronto Canada has some going up as well.

Respect & solidarity with Sarah & Georgie who've worked tirelessly on this issue affecting millions of Britons. Legacy of Grenfell catastrophe where 40% of disabled residents of Grenfell died. Our mums, dads, siblings, children, partners. @claddag @DisRightsUK @johnpringdns

You're hereby invited to the presentation of my PhD project at @DTUtweet, who have generously hosted me during the majority of the PhD project as I had to relocate.

@PVfireguy @DTUtweet Hi Jens, would like to see that report. Can you send as a pdf?

#FastestwaterFriday Fact: On avg, 7 people died each day in U.S. home fires. Cooking remains the leading cause of home fires & injuries; however, smoking materials persist as the leading cause of home fire deaths. #FireSprinklers can change this! Build w/#fastestwater.

We did it! Another successful "high-rise operations" demonstration. 5 full days, 50 hours of volunteering this month. 27 Fire Departments and counting. All at donated time. Who's next? Highrisefirefighting.com

A fifth-floor balcony was destroyed by a fire in #BethnalGreen. Firefighters worked hard in very hot conditions to quickly bring the blaze under control and minimise damage to the affected flat orlo.uk/AGG5u

Thank you to the @DerryFire firefighters who arrived immediately on the scene. I was inside when we started smelling smoke and the alarm rang.

Some wild video has surfaced from a fire a few weeks back at the 401 and Yonge St area that the @TPFFA made quick work of. #toronto #fire #canada

Fire has broken out on the top floor of a block of flats on Manwood Street in North Woolwich. 15 engines and 100 firefighters are at the scene. @LBC

En welk 'wondermiddel' kan deze cascade van ellende onderbreken (zodat de brandweer niet nodig is als dit gebeurd in een accupakket)?

NOW: at least two homes in #Hingham on fire. Multiple departments responding. Neighbors hosing down homes to try and save their property. #WCVB

If temperature in your house is really hot, it can't be as bad as a block of flats in Ipswich. While construction work is going on, their building has been wrapped in thick white plastic...for more than a year! @MirandaSchunke reports. #5News
