It's beginning to unravel. The outright corruption that caused these blocks to be clad in what is basically a system such as Cellotex with a flimsy metal cover is being uncovered.
I find it really strange that this country can afford to build HS2 but leave so many people housed in rubbish accomodation. This block that just burned had about £9m spent on cladding the outside to make it look a bit better but no sprinkler system (at £400 per household)
I have to pay tribute to everyone attending and trying to sort things out in what was a terrible terrible fire. They have my thanks - forever. They are so incredibly brave.
I was passing Shepherds bush when it all re ignited and from LBC saying a small fire had started again to the whole building back on fire top to bottom - and there were still firemen in there.
