If the fireman was right and if the asbestos was in the building structure, then someone's for it big time. It's been banned for ages. It's been banned for much longer than Tin Town has been there.

Maybe stuff stored within the sheds contained asbestos?

Again, if the fireman's correct in his analysis, then everyone downwind of the plume has a legacy they've never even dreamt of !!

The lawyers are already ordering their new flash motors and mansions !!!!

The firemen weren't masked, they haven't excluded people from the area, the buildings are relatively new - all points to no known asbestos present.

Bigger worry is the benzine products etc given off by the burning plastic, a lot of these are major carcinogens.


There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025

Do firemen have any sort of detectors or ways of monitoring for different sorts of chemicals that may be in the air when they first arrive at a fire

We have a fireman somewhere on wiki who may tell us more

Dont think its asbestos, next door is Sims recycling, and they used to recycle fridges! Talking to their engineer in the Ellesmere Port plant today and they recon that their damage is about £3 million!!! They also had a load of foam insulation from fridges stored that went up!!! Not good for the old ozone!!!!

that tin town your talking about. would like to point out that the original steel structures of those sheds where errectet {built] in the late 40s. i watched them been cladded in the original black sheetin when i was a lad and hanging around on Warrens fieled. Warrens field was the piece of grass land to the south of the corporation destructer yard which is where the gas bottle place is now

The large building was built in the early 60's as the stores building for the Polaris submarine project. It later became the shipyard's general stores. The cladding was corrugated steel ,not asbestos panels.
