This is a disaster waiting to happen with a loss of life.. They have bottled gas and if one explodes there may well be a chain reaction and a fire storm. I hope all those in Castle Point Council and the Councillors that for years ignored what was happening and allowed this holiday camp to a place of permanent residents accept if it happens they are responsible.
Again!?!
How many more fires like this does it take to convince them that nobody should be living there?
