East London tower block residents described their flats as “like living in an oven” after the building reached sweltering temperatures, forcing them to leave their homes to take breaks from the heat.
Problems with scorching temperatures inside Leaside Lock flats have been ongoing since last year, when one resident found the heat so unbearable they plastered a sign which read “DO NOT BUY THESE FLATS. TOO HOT” in their window.
