Grenfell Tower block disaster

Good for them,a nightmare to organise though

Its entirely right that problems have been found and admitted with their buildings and that they get rehomes asap but move 800 families at a minutes notice?

Personally i think they are causing themselves problems they just dont need right now and instead rather implement a planned move with families being rehomed as and when accommodation is available?
 
The residents can stay if they want so it isn't compulsory apparently but it is transparent and all residents have been involved. Trouble is will it only be Camden ???

Salford's mayor has announced that some high rises in Pendleton are to have their cladding removed ASAP

I think these fires are a rare event so there is time to think this through carefully,millions has been raised for them and it needs to be put to longer term accomodation for them,it's unlikely although not impossible there will be a similar event in the short term,having said that if i was up high in one of those blocks i would want out asap

Id be asking families if they want out and if the answer is yes then move them immediately whilst for the rest tell them that as soon as suitable accommodation is ready they can move.
 
This is fucking madness, it's taking paranoia to a new level. Evacuating people on a Friday night, without notice ?

I just cant help but feel its going to create issues and problems that just dont need to be created right now not to mention a hysteria that goes beyond what's reasonable.
 
Compulsary evacuation even if you own your own flat says one of the residents, lot of them have dogs and cats as well, why not do this earlier on today?

If it's anything other than political grandstanding then I'll eat our budgie. It just doesn't make sense.
If these buildings are that sensitive, have fire services posted until such time they're able to relocate people for the period required?

Agree completely mate.

Tragic what has happened but lets all just take a step back, make the right plan for all those affected and get it done right in a real time frame that improves lives and doesn't just make 800 families literally squat for god knows how long in hotel rooms or leisure centre floors!

So if the council received the confirmation they were unsafe friday afternoon, they should wait cos its friday night?

If there was another tragedy over the weekend at one of those blocks I am sure that would be accepted as an excuse

It beggars belief, it really does.

Then post a fucking Green Goddess on each block until they've been suitably accommodated.

Just a thought but would it be cheaper (not that this is the main issue) and less disruptive to have a fire crew at each of the tower blocks for a week whilst they do the testing and remove the cladding if needed?

Pets will stay put and they can go back and tend to them every day,although some hotels let you take animals in,i took my cat to a hotel whilst my new house was finished off,all they said was keep them caged if you leave the room
I think people are worried mostly if there is a fire during the night,just my opinion though
