Indeed.
Such things are mandated in some countries but not here.

I caused the fire alarm to go off in our block by empting a vacuum bag into the communal bins (the dust set it off)
the alarms in the whole block went off
everyone ignored them

And that attitude is why cheap badly fitting replacements were used. After all council tenants are only scum, and deserve to die in a fire.
Very true. But don't let's stop the right wing having their fun blaming it all on the tenants.

With dry risers and sprinklers the need to take heavy hoses would be reduced.

many are ok but some really make up for it.
it was the scumbags that were unemployed and loved a crusade to get involved with....they were like a dog with a bone...nothing better to do ....and you were not allowed to tell them to f*ck off and get a life...oh no...you had to reply to their every enquiry ....
But it is not allowed in Wales:
"The Welsh Government has amended Approved Document B volumes 1 and 2, with new regulations and guidance to be implemented on 1st January 2016.
The amendments to the documents arise from the Domestic Fire Safety (Wales) Regulations, resulting in a new Section 7A ?Automatic Fire Suppression Systems? in the Building Regulations 2010 Statutory Instrument. Section 7A introduces regulations 37A and 37B, requiring all new ?domestic premises? to have a fire suppression system installed.
A fire suppression system is defined as an automatic system that controls and extinguishes fires without human intervention. Typically these are sprinkler systems, although other types are available."
