english teacher being the first act outside of london to win the mercury’s since 2014 is an embarrassing but honest reflection of the uk music industry i’ll never stop banging on abt how important ur local BBC Music Introducing shows are for you, local music scenes & wider uk culture
The chain of cover-ups that led to Grenfell - UnHerd. Peter Apps whose book is excellent. Points out here the attempts by government POST Grenfell to claim the cladding on the building had been ‘banned’. Proven not true by the ban later announced unherd.com/newsroom/the-c…
It’s NOT JUST CLADDING Angela Rayner ! It’s ALL fire safety defects!! All committed by the same culpable builders, ignored by the same culpable regulatory bodies, deregulated by the same successive Govt’s as cladding. The leaseholder is innocent. #BuildingSafetyCrisis
A point I made at yesterday Financial Times Live where we discussed the British primal urge to get on to the housing ladder at any cost often buying tiny flats with dubious incentives - if you keep buying their product then developers will keep building it!
Please read this thread by Peter Apps IMHO the best informed & smartest journalist on housing. Combined w Michael Gove ‘s revelations about HM Treasury blocking his efforts to hold Grenfell manufacturers to account. Says it all about our sorry, valueless country
And we all need to be compensated for the huge financial and emotional stress Keir Starmer. All of my savings gone and in debt because of this nightmare situation.
5 years today since our entire building was destroyed by fire. Some residents will finally move back home this month. Others still have no idea how they will ever own a home again. Berkeley Group MTVH Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Gov can be sure we will not stop campaigning until we have justice.
