Blaze in Swiss resort bar kills around 40 people, police say

When I saw the photos of the sparklers in the champagne bottles being waved overhead, I thought it must be some stupid new idea, but apparently they'd been doing it for some time as a regular thing for special orders.
 
My first thought was "oh, ****, not another Stardust*" and it increasingly looks like an apt comparison, with owner negligence and government lackadsaicalnees looking to be to blame.

* A fire in a Dublin nightclub killing more than 40 shortly before I was born. It's only in recent years that the victims started getting their proper due, albeit unlike Hillsborough they were never blamed for their own deaths.
