Nothing really he was just taking a fair bit of flak off the public in W10. In fairness, mind, they were probably just looking to lash out at anybody in 'authority' and he just happened to be on the spot. | |

I saw that, but its not his fault how long has he been Mayor, the tories have cut cut cut, look at the 70 tory mps who are land lords voted against a law making rented homes like Grenfell Tower be fit for human habitation. | |

London tower block on fire on 21:32 - Jun 15 with 2411 views | Dr_Winston | It's amazing how many people have become experts on both housing law and health & safety over the last 24 hours. Here's an idea. How about we let the professionals work out what happened and then see what the inquest reports before attempting to make tedious f*cking political capital out of the death of dozens of people? | |

I saw this on twitter earlier. Have I got it wrong here but didn't the block of flats get cladding put on the outside of it like houses have had all over the country in a free government scheme? Serious question. | |

The number of people I've heard talking with complete false authority about "cladding" over the last couple of days is quite amusing. I agree with your general point but there will be political consequences to this. Everything is political. | |

Free government schemes normally involve somebody somewhere making a lot of money. | |

Yeah but you get my drift there's been thousands of houses done throughout Neath/Port Talbot and that's serious thousands. | |

Oh no doubt. With events of this magnitude there's always fallout and lessons to be learned. It's a sad truth but often it's tragedy that drives progress. Knowing what went wrong usually make things better for the future. | |

You are right to talk of cuts epaul. I bet that any concern raised over this block of flats has been placed on a "to do" list, only for it to get further pushed down the pecking order due to prioritising other work that may have been easier, cheaper and quicker to do. Thereby creating an impressive "Done" list, but all the while the major stuff sits on an "in tray" | | | |

And that's what I believe is being alleged here. I don't know the detail but it seems (or at least is alleged) that ministers may have ignored the recommendations of reports of investigations into previous, similar but not so serious tower block fires. Answers to these questions won't be forthcoming soon of course as government is effectively in abeyance at the moment while Mrs May concentrates on the importance business of saving her own sorry arse via endless and not really needed negotiations wth the DUP. | |

I’m surprised that there is no requirement for sprinkler system in these buildings. I think I’ve read in the newer ones it is, but not retrospectively adding to older buildings. | |

Probably not but the coincidence of landlord tory MPs voting against it, if it got through perhaps steps could have now been taken to ensure these places are safe, the building might well have been safer we'll never know will we | |

Loftus Road has been opened as a hub for collections. Staff have been made available to co-ordinate the efforts to sort and distribute. The ground and stadium areas have been made available for displaced residents to have somewhere to stay. Fernandez has told all staff to prioritise the relief efforts. They've used the main club social media accounts to help direct efforts and help give out information, Fulham have also been heavily involved. | | | |
