This really couldn’t have happened at a worse time. A very busy shopping day at Westfield and West Ham playing Spurs.

The initial speculation blamed an electric car for starting the fire but no, it started from a diesel vehicle.

It's always an EV, until the facts are revealed.

Reminds me of the Liverpool Echo Arena car park fire that turned out to be most likely caused by a leaky petrol LR product.

EV fires are less common but much harder to extinguish.

It's interesting how people jumped to "must be an EV" straight away. Shows how quickly the blame game starts before the facts come out

My thoughts exactly. Many jumped to the wrong conclusion.

I don’t know if the car park’s open again yet but several people had to get home from shopping or football without their vehicles.

At least EVs take the pressure off the Jews. Most things are normally their fault on social media.
