Some residents in an east London tower block have said they did not hear any alarms during a fire in which a man died on the 17th floor. They told BBC London they had been alerted by neighbours banging on their doors and telling them to leave the building during the early hours of Saturday. The man died in the flat fire at Neutron Tower in Poplar. Two adults and a child were rescued by firefighters wearing breathing apparatus, the London Fire Brigade (LFB) said. FirstPort, the building's management company, said "it would not be appropriate for us to speculate on specific matters" while the fire was under investigation. The LFB said: "There are a range of factors that are being investigated regarding the cause of the fire by the Brigade's Fire Investigation Team." More on this story ➡️ #London #LondonNews #Poplar

🏊 Children leaving primary schools' in London are less likely to confidently swim one length of a standard-sized swimming pool. That's worse than any other region in England.
