Fire in a high rise on Whitechapel High Street. London Fire say ten engines & 70 firefighters are at the scene. They’re asking people to avoid the area if possible
Now 100 firefighters are tackling this blaze in Aldgate. You can see external parts of the building flying off as the flames spread. Praying everyone is ok
Now, Sadiq Khan says 20 fire engines and more than 125 firefighters are working to tackle the fire at the block of flats and offices. It's the Relay Building, also home to Houblon Apartments
I used to live here. There's 132 flats. Those flats contain 132 heat detectors, 264 smoke detectors and 264 sounders. Please explain how a #WakingWatch with two eyes, a nose and an air horn gives better early detection and warning? Just connect them all to a centralised system. 
If you're wondering what a good fire alarm looks like in a block of flats, this will explain. Fire officers tend to think about offices when you mention fire alarms & wouldn't be aware of the smart systems now available for flats. GB tech, made in GB.
If talking about the costs of #WakingWatch, NFCC tell us, it's for early detection & warning. Pre-existing costs of this, for residents, already include their domestic smoke detection/alarm system & if the block has AOVs there'll be smoke detectors for them in communal areas too.
