I\u2019ve just been looking at the hype here in the UK. It seems that Grenfell Tower had a structure of reinforced concrete, rather than steel. Steel, it seems, is more susceptible to collapse through fire because it has a much higher thermal conductivity. That\u2019s why our towers don\u2019t collapse, whereas US towers do. We have more stringent building regulations here, of course, because we\u2019re British, and we uphold British values of democracy and free speech. That\u2019s why no-one listened to the residents, who were trying to tell the authorities about the fire hazards following the refurbishing work done on the tower.
