Twin Towers WTC v Grenfell Tower

[Beanz]

The building controller who passed this specification should be hung.

Is that what all the protesting was about? They showed it last night and looked like a near riot broke out with May being jeered and rushed off the property etc.

People are annoyed about the inaction and a real response to the tragedy

Seems tragedy and empty rhetoric of officials in response knows no boarders. Was it Government owned or private. Almost sounds like it was a death trap.

Government owned and they may have picked a cheap cladding which may have made the fire spread quicker

Not entirely sure how Government funded and supported housing programs work there but many places here are notorious for bad conditions and health-code violations. Until recently a couple locally were accidents waiting with limited entry- exit and half the emergency fixtures busted.

The list mate is mind blowing. It is a damning indictment of what happens when money becomes the bottom line and people's safety, care and well being is deemed irrelevant. Literally years of warning from the residents themselves, No proper safety procedures, Gas pipes all up the stairwells, no sprinklers, clad in highly inflammable material, fire exits blocked, access for fire trucks restricted by adjacent building, huge cuts to the fire service, etc, etc


Warning form the residents themselves in 2013 - https://grenfellactiongroup.wordpres...ing-with-fire/

here at the foot of the article are another 9 warnings from residents 9 years ago - http://www.globalresearch.ca/britain...s-like/5595084


Heads should Roll, from the top down.

Here is an example from the former Tory Mayor of London dismissing legitimate concerns about public service cuts to the fire service. Typical of the current Governments attitude (he is a current secretary of state and former wananbe PM)
