        UK housing associations accused of mis-selling ‘affordable’ homes as service charges soar by up to 400% #LeaseholdScandal Shared Ownership Resources HomeOwners Alliance theguardian.com/society/2025/m…
 
        It's 3 years since Justinwelby visited our home & we're now approaching the 8th anniversary of #grenfell yet we are still fianicially, physically, & mentally trapped by dangerous cladding on our home. End Our Cladding Scandal NLC - KATIE KENDRICK OBE - LEASEHOLD CAMPAIGNER Manchester Cladiators Elaine Willcox #EndOurCladdingScandal
 
        From a The Labour Party safe distance perspective prioritising commonhold for new builds makes sense before tackling complexities of converting existing leaseholds From a leaseholder’s perspective, delays are devastating us. We cannot afford to wait another five years, absolutely not!
 
        🔴Eight Years After Grenfell, the Government Still Doesn’t Know How May Homes Are Unsafe and Has No Clear Plan to Fix Them Repeated promises to clean up the scandal of homes covered in highly dangerous flammable cladding are still not being met, warn MPs bylinetimes.com/2025/03/21/eig…
 
        🗨️“The cladding scandal has fundamentally and irreversibly changed my view of the fairness of living in this country and has highlighted the ease with which so many people who have been involved have been able to prioritise profit over human beings’’ yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/cladding-…
 
        Industry blames BSR resource. The BSR says 70% of applications are inadequate. Keir Starmer says he's someone responsible for building safety. But backs the builders and wants to tear up red tape. Leaseholders & residents left trapped in the middle. History repeats itself.
 
        If a building is in the Developer Contract, you'd think the developer is obliged to pay for a waking watch / alarm if their assessments say interim measures are needed. Nope. Leaseholders are still forced to pay for the useless waking watch 👇🏼 This is "justice" the Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Gov way.
 
        📢 Govt has responded to the Public Accounts Committee's report into The Remediation of Dangerous Cladding 👇🏼 gov.uk/government/pub… Sadly, it seems the pattern of misleading statements and denial of reality only continues under The Labour Party Change? What change?
 
         
         
        Angela Rayner 8 years on several thousand unsafe tower blocks, several hundred thousand trapped people being financially extorted by insurers and managing agents - flats market collapsing - suicides, bankruptcies, mental health and finances ruined -no fault of leaseholders. End Our Cladding Scandal
 
        Hi Alex Norris MP ⚠️ There are hundreds of thousands of us who live in blocks with fire safety defects. As Building Safety Minister, can you pls get your team to post a warning so people don't do barbecues on their balconies? Our safety should be part of Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Gov priorities.
 
         
        Sadly spot on from Dominic Ahern - they’ll only learn when the market crashes.
 
        How many more little fires? Near misses? 8 years after Grenfell our homes are still unsafe & remediation stuck in Gateway 2 If this hadn't been spotted by a resident things could be a lot worse What will it take to finally fix our homes? #EndOurCladdingScandal Manchester Cladiators
 
                        
                    
                    
                    
                 
         
        Clive Wismayer 🇪🇺🥪 Agree competent managing agents will still be needed under Commonhold but to slur all LHs as wanting something for nothing is out of order. We have evidence in NLC - KATIE KENDRICK OBE - LEASEHOLD CAMPAIGNER of very successful RTM buildings where LHs understand the real cost of services opposed to MA made up ones
 
        🚪Fire door checks ‼️ Government guidance is clear, you do not need a specialist 💭Imagine setting up an entire company so you can charge leaseholders even more money ✔️That's just what our Managing Agent has done #leaseholdscandal #EndOurCladdingScandal NLC - KATIE KENDRICK OBE - LEASEHOLD CAMPAIGNER Manchester Cladiators
 
                        
                    
                    
                    
                 
        Scary word play from a The Labour Party MP. We don’t want the “current” leasehold system ended. We want residential leasehold ended in its entirety. There must be a mass shift to commonhold. Commonhold shouldn’t just be for new flats. Say No to Two-Tier, Keir! Free Leaseholders
 
        Luke Pollard MP But we don’t want to be chucked extra rights to transparency so we can be serial litigators as part of the “current” leasehold system being ended for a new, similarly abusive version. You manifesto said leasehold would be ended! Your government must not create two-tier.
