It so heartbreaking, RIP Sahara.

I hope someone faces charges for this.

Round the corner from my parents house in a similar area there's been a smell of gas for, oooh, 12 years? I know multiple reports have been made and yet every time I visit the smell is still there. So it wouldn't surprise me at all if reports had gone ignored.

What a terrible thing to happen. I hope the family get justice, not that anything can bring their beautiful girl back but the company/ies responsible must be held to account for what looks like a massive failing on their part that resulted in this tragedy.

Someone should face charges but will they really? You only have to look at what happened with Grenfell to know that there are loopholes that companies go through to somehow avoid liability.

This happened 20 mins up the road from me. I saw all the fire engines and knew straight away that something really bad must have happened. I went on Twitter and saw what happened straight away. How horrifying. The mum has 3 other kids and said people were running in the house to help find her and her kids.

They had just picked up Sahara’s new school uniform for the new school year and now she’s not here. All because people didn’t do their job properly? I just can’t believe it, it’s disgusting
