        No building should be built taller or larger than the fire department are able to tackle, flammable cladding prevented ppl going in to help?

        This is exactly what happened in Dubai The Address Hotel over a year ago. Cladding was combustible.

        Any block that has flammable cladding needs to be removed asap or be forced to do so by law, this can never happen again, heart breaking
