East London Fire Update: smoke contains asbestos, stay indoors

Here is a quick update on the East London fire that we reported on earlier with a video, we have now seen Sky News reporting that the smoke contains asbestos.

The London Fire Brigade are advising any people with respiratory conditions to make sure they stay indoors, I personally would keep away from any smoke with asbestos in.

The investigation in to what has happened will start right away, but it currently looks like an accident and not arson.

The people in that London area should be glad that the Fire Brigade acted very quickly to suppress the plumes of smoke and control the risk that asbestos brings.
