Twin Towers WTC v Grenfell Tower

[Beanz]

Actually I made an error in one of my previous posts. It turns out that it's not virtually every building tested that has failed the fire safety tests. It is actually EVERY building of the 65 checked so far

"Sixty high-rise buildings in 25 local authority areas have failed cladding fire tests, with every sample so far assessed falling short of the safety threshold.
Substandard cladding has been found on social housing across England, from Plymouth, Norwich and Manchester to Sunderland and Stockton-on-Tees.
Last week Theresa May promised an emergency assessment of up to 100 buildings a day, but the alarming results, and the 100 per cent failure rate of the high-priority samples so far, have prompted calls for the testing process to be accelerated....."

Yes it's called "council tax" and everyone pays it whether they are in private or council housing but at different rates. Rebates were given to the rich. Rob from the poor give to the rich.


The Conservative council responsible for the tower block where at least 79 people died in a fire described by the mayor of London as preventable has stockpiled £274m of reserves and offered rebates to residents paying the top rate of council tax.

According to the latest accounts, the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea ran a budget surplus, which Labour councillors have claimed was being used as a slush fund to bribe voters with a rebate close to elections.
A draft statement of Kensington and Chelsea’s accounts for 2016-17 disclosed that the council has an “AA” credit rating and a financial standing described as robust, with “usable reserves at 31 March 2017 of £274m (£300m at 31 March 2016

The council has been relieved of responsibility for taking care of the survivors of the disaster, having struggled to cope with the aftermath of the deadly blaze. A new Grenfell fire response team, made up of representatives from central government, the British Red Cross, the Metropolitan police, London-wide local and regional government and the London fire brigade, will now coordinate efforts.....
