While it's politically incorrect to say so, fire brigades do have
a track record of blundering when it comes to large fires. Another
was the Liverpool Echo.

Cherry picking failures from a very large number of successes


At fighting fires in big public buildings? Perhaps there are
non-compliant tower blocks and multi-storey car parks going up in
flames all the time, being put out, and they never make the news?


Clearly most have a fire that is contained very effectively


Then they wouldn't be non-compliant.

and so are no news at all when no one dies etc.
