        Question that everyone is asking, didn't they have some sort of sprinkler system, fire protection, or a exit program?

        Water sprinklers and fire alarms were non existent, and the people had been warning the council for years

        The building burnt last week mate, I saw the remains with my own eyes. You think survivors are just chilling inside?!

        The point I was trying to make was that the official death toll will take ages to reach near the true figure due to verifying the mess
