[Sir Tigger KC]

.. I see there are to be criminal prosecutions over Hillsborough.

I heard that on the radio the other morning - I am amazed it still rattles on. I wonder if I'll still be hearing about Grenfell on the news when I'm old..

If it turns out that there's any sort of official cover up going on the row will be tremendous and will rumble on for donkeys! 

I'm listening to IDS on R2 now and they're talking about the numbers of dead and accusations of a cover up.

Probably never know the real truth about any of these incidents, if an inquiry or prosecutions gives closure to some all  well & good, but as someone else said earlier you cannot bring back the dead.

Interesting how other countries in Europe have the same problem.

France( in the NE) had a similar but smaller block of flats with cladding fire- only one fatality. You would have thought that would have set alarm bells ringing. It is also interesting to see the French legislation to tackle the issue.

The one thing that does surprise me is that we haven't yet had a kneejerk witchhunt on withdrawing all Hotpoint Fridge Freezers as I think that was the identified culprit.

What they, the residents, won't admit or acknowledge is the fact the the official occupancy figures cannot possibly include all the extended families living 8 to a flat. To admit this would invalidate not only any  credibility that the residents' case might have had, but also any insurance cover of either building owners or individual flat owners...
