#Fire #investigators confirm the blaze was accidental - in some ways that is good news, but venue owners and management still have a lot to answer for in respect of #FireSafety - such #fires in night time venues are still a big cause of mass casualty events, even across Europe which is a relatively safe and stable region nowadays and mostly manages to keep a lid on risks to punters in such venues from #OrganisedCrime and #terrorism )

The Guardian | Say hello to the UK’s most successful growth industry: organised waste crime | George Monbiot by George Monbiot
Thanks to a sustained ideological assault on regulation, our country has been turned into a literal dump
This country’s a dump. I don’t mean that metaphorically. I mean it literally. From the point of view of criminal waste gangs, it is one big potential landfill. The chances of being caught range between minimal and nonexistent, and the penalties are mostly laughable. Successive governments have given criminals a licence to print money.

A spate of shootings in French cities has drawn attention to the growing number of victims of drug-related organised crime.
While the government’s answer has largely been to get tough on law and order, campaigners argue repression alone is not enough, and are calling for France to follow Italy’s example in involving everyday citizens in the fight.
