Are you trying to tell me that a building constructed 50-60 years ago would stand up as well as one built now?
Go outside and have a word with yourself.

Look at the 4:00BST picture and tell me it didn't spread externally.

Footage has shown the fire spreading up one side of the building externally, before engulfing the entire block.
