Background
After the fire that took place at Glasgow Central last weekend, I believe that the historic buildings shouldn't have been utterly destroyed and the main Glasgow train station taken out of commission because of the fire produced by vape batteries. To maximise profit, these devices may have limited battery protections and, as seen, can create devastating damage which should not be given the possibility of affecting services that are imperative to UK functioning.
