Andrew Pope has today confirmed with residents, and has obtained photographic evidence, that the sprinklers in the bin area have been refitted.
This is a victory for Andrew's campaign to expose the Labour-run Council's failure to fix the sprinklers that have been out of action since December.
After Sunday's incident in the Towers, Andrew informed the Fire Service about the sprinklers on the ground floor being out of action. The Incident Commanders confirmed that the Council had not told them prior to attending the incident.
Andrew says:

"I am determined to protect Shirley Towers residents from the Labour-run Council's negligence. And I am determined to get residents' voices heard.
It is abysmal that Cabinet Member for Housing Councillor Andy Frampton did not want to respond to my questions on behalf of residents.
Now residents know that Labour does not care very much about the fire safety of residents, or the safety of firefighters attending Shirley Towers.
And Labour need to be voted out from the Council.
I very much hope Shirley residents will vote Labour."
The Shirley by-election is on Thursday 26th February and the Council elections are on May 2026.
