" FIRE extinguishers are being banned from blocks of flats – after they were branded a health and safety RISK."

So if you are getting shot or stabbed in England call the cops as you bleed to death.
If your house is buring down call the firemen and sit by idling.

'The Fire Service is backing the ban – which could be brought in across the country under new rules."

Seems like it hasn't happened yet....Probably won't...It is soooo helpful if you read the article before posting it.

Well, it is the sun. Can't get much more red top than that.
The article is days old - and pretty sensational (ish) - we have pretty much 'done' with this article here.
Have you ever used a fire extinguisher? Do you know the correct procedure? How about even if it is the right type?

I pretty much agree to the ban. Better to try and get out, than try and fight a fire you may make worse and risk fire-fighters lives.

Yes but it has already been banned in many areas, apparently they are "assesing risks" block by block.

Ummm... The sun. Newspaper - red top - it basically means it's a trashy tabloid with extreme political agendas.
Oh - and lots of tits.
