For all protesters blaming Theresa May. And for all Labour / Jeremy Corbyn supporters note the following facts.
Grenfell Tower built by a Labour Council, under a Labour Government ~ "Sorry Rubbish"
Sadiq Khan was the Housing Minister in 2008. As Mayor he produced a report saying the Fire Services DID NOT need further funding. ~ "Sorry Rubbish"
Emma Coad newly elected MP was on the board of the tenant management group who are now accused of not listening to the tenants. ~ "This has some semblence of truth"
The cladding (banned in the USA) was chosen by Ed Miliband to meet EU climate change legislation. ~ "Sorry Rubbish"
Time to look inward and stop shifting the blame elsewhere for political gain.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So lets have a look at this because I like facts, when they are factual and not just being banded around for some political agenda.
Alleged fact 1
Grenfell Tower built by a Labour Council, under a Labour Government
Fact
It was Designed in 1967, Council approved construction in 1970, Build Started in 1972 completed in 1974.
It was designed during Harold Wilson's (Labour) reign by Clifford Wearden and Associates
Construction was approved in 1970 when Edward Heath (Conservative) was in power.
The build was started in 1972 when Edward Health (Conservative) was in power.
Build was completed in 1974 when Harold Wilson (Labour) came back into power.
Was Grenfell Tower built by a Labour Council? Since 1964 the Kensington and Chelsea council has been controlled by the Conservative party.
Was Grenfell tower built under a Labour Government? The majority of the construction if not all of it was during a Conservative Government.
CONCLUSION = MISINFORMATION
Alleged fact 2
Sadiq Khan was the Housing Minister in 2008.
FACT: He wasn't the housing minister in 2008. That was Caroline Flint and then Margaret Beckett.
As Mayor he produced a report saying the Fire Services DID NOT need further funding.
FACT: Im unable to find any documents or report where he said this.
CONCLUSION = SUSPECTED MISINFORMATION
Alleged fact 3
Emma Coad newly elected MP was on the board of the tenant management group who are now accused of not listening to the tenants.
FACT: She was on the board of the Housing and Property Scrutiny Committee between 23/05/2013 - 11/06/2014
CONCLUSION = FACTUAL
Alleged fact 4
The cladding (banned in the USA) was chosen by Ed Miliband to meet EU climate change legislation.
FACT: I can only find this comment from the chancellor Phillip Hammond “My understanding is the cladding in question, this flammable cladding which is banned in Europe and the US, is also banned here. I can find no evidence of it being chosen by Ed Milliband.
CONCLUSION = SUSPECTED MISINFORMATION

could i just ask the drip of a moron who wrote this articl, if the cladding was banned in the usa and also baned here, how the fuck did it end up on the side of a tower block, you moron ?.
ReplyDeleteA rather moronic comment from someone calling someone else a moron. Why not post something intelligent rather than trying to insult.
DeleteYou might like to ask Phillip Hammond about the cladding I wasn't commenting on that, but on whether Ed Milliband chose it, as was being claimed.
You didn't answer the question, if the cladding was banned here how can it have been applied to Grenfell tower? This tells me that you have no idea what you are talking about.
DeleteOh Im sorry It appears you didn't read the blog properly. Ill say again I wasn't commenting on whether the cladding was or was not banned here but on the misleading information that Milliband chose it. However to help you out as your obviously incapable of reading. According to Phillip Hammond ....
Delete"The cladding used on Grenfell Tower, which has been widely blamed for spreading the blaze, is banned in the UK on buildings of that height, Philip Hammond has said."
You'll find that in one of the linked articles I didn't include it as I wasn't commenting on whether it was banned or not.
I hope that clears things up for you.
