        Doesn't matter whether it was the fridge or not. Fires happen. But they shouldn't spread like that.

        Where is guy who started fire and why has he not been taken in for questioning? And don't mention Labour councils have used same cladding.

        Confused by posts. This is local council issue, nothing to do with Mayor of London.

        If this is another #Beko or #Hotpoint appliance fire then the responsible company needs to be shutdown. We have too many appliance fires.

        And electrical problems, as previously noted by residents? Power surges etc? Maybe suspend judgement until final reports on all issues?

        So it turns out the #Grenfell fire was caused by another @HotpointUK appliance. The company needs to be shut down for its poor safety record

        So you've inspected that appliance and can definitively state that there was no electrical system failure in the building that contributed?
