Handed in an £800 invoice for a day's work to a local government department and they didn't raise an eyebrow. Each to their own. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 ^^^^ peeping tom. Had to park outside some retirement flats once to take a shot of a steam train coming into a station. Before we had a chance to direct the camera an old lady on the 4th floor came out of the shower to face a camera pointed right at her just outside the window. Livid would be an understatement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotThePars Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 You better believe this is political. You can have sympathy for Theresa may if you like but she's at the top of the tree. Her reaction to this has already been telling. The housing situation in the country is horrendous, and this especially true in London.This tragedy was magnified massively because the tenants were poor. It simply wouldn't have happened in a richer area. It's only politicising this that can stop this happening again and there's a lot of people landlord and council level up to the highest levels of government that are culpable here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee-Bey Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Don't know why folk expect the Tories to have ensured proper fire safety measures in the holding pens for poor people when they're not even prepared to do it for schools. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/government-criticised-over-quietly-abandoning-requirement-for-new-schools-to-install-fire-sprinklers-a7219276.html Apologies in advance for anyone upset at my 'politicising' of these err... political decisions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a JC fan either, but at least he is the lesser of 2 evils. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jute Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 There was a local resident on Channel 4 news having a go at John Snow and rest of media for not reporting that death toll was over 150. John Snow did not deny that that he had heard that figure. Horrible if true. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musketeer Gripweed Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Someone at my work genuinely believes this could be a revenge attack by some right wing nutter against immigrants.

Question is why this time the media have gone for the official line of confirmed deaths when they have never been concerned about speculating on people missing in past? Going back to my point earlier I think people are managing this very carefully as there is potential for some serious civil disorder. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Every pundit saying "You can't put a price on human lives." Utter bollocks, insurance companies, NICE and risk assessors of all kinds do so every minute. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
