As bad as that is, it only scratches the surface because they didn't actually go inside any of the buildings. It would be unimaginable for a building outside of the Chinese bubble to literally start collapsing upon itself after standing on its own for only three years.
The typical quality of newly constructed housing in these regions of mainland China is illegal in London, and increasingly alien to even the most wretched Londoner.
It was international news when there was a serious fire in a tower recently in London, it's not news at all in some places.
Yes, of course safety is not comparable and is paramount in importance. However just in terms of the day-to-day experience of living in these places - I'm not so sure London has an obvious advantage.
