1/5 working flat out in the NHS, I come home & discover my service charge has increased by over 100% - is this how you reward key workers affected by the cladding scandal @RobertJenrick? I shouldn't be worrying about affording a food shop whilst I'm looking after a patient.

8 years. 2,922 days since our loved ones were taken from us. Still no justice. Now they're demolishing the Tower. Trying to erase history. But we will never forget. Walk with us tonight at the Silent Walk to show those responsible we won't stop until justice is served.

8 years on. Still far from justice. Still far from peace. Today, and always, we stand shoulder to shoulder with the Grenfell bereaved, survivors and community. We will remember the 72 people who died. We will honour their memory. We will demand justice 💚
Grenfell United@GrenfellUnited

Walk with us tomorrow, Saturday 14 June for the 8th anniversary. 8 years on. No arrests. No justice. The tower is a stark reminder of what happened that night but the government has decided it's time to bring it down. 💚

👉 "Fire and rescue services “lack sufficient capacity” and the workforce needed to identify and inspect all mid-rise housing blocks" ❗"The number of mid-rise residential buildings is not known, however estimates range from 79,000 to 150,000." 👇 @mhclg see the problem?

72 people died at Grenfell. No-one, and no firm has been prosecuted and no-one has lost their job as a result. Over 2,400 other tower blocks are similarly dngerous. The government will need to respond on all these issues. housingtoday.co.uk/news/rayner-to…

📢 @UKLabour has announced its Cladding Remediation Acceleration Plan. The "plan" looks extremely disappointing. Innocent leaseholders and residents across the country need and deserve much more. Our statement 👇🏼 #EndOurCladdingScandal

Over two years after the leaseholder protections became law, three further amendments to the Building Safety Act came into force on Thursday 👇🏼 gov.uk/guidance/amend… Is the BS Act operating as intended yet @mhclg @AngelaRayner? Or will that be another 2+ years?

The #cladding scandal has created many accidental landlords Banks are still unwilling to lend mortgages on unfixed flats which leaves leaseholders like Kerry completely stuck - unable to sell before potential tax rises come in, by no fault of their own 👇 inews.co.uk/news/landlord-…

For what it's worth, as the data is full of holes, the latest @mhclg building safety remediation stats have been published. More unsafe homes. More delays and disputes. No grip. No end in sight. gov.uk/government/pub…

Government and developer delays continue to have serious mental and physical health impacts on residents trapped in homes with life threatening fire safety defects. Thanks to @SarahCorkerNews for her latest report. ⬇️ itv.com/news/2024-10-1…

"Your life choices are materially impacted. It’s young people who might want to start a family and they have to become accidental landlords. That’s then tying up properties for first-time-buyers. There's a lot of people who are older and want to downsize" manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-m…

The govt deliberately hid tests it commissioned pre #Grenfell that showed #cladding was dangerous & flammable. The govt then engaged in deceit & cover-up post Grenfell. It is now time for the govt to pay a hefty compensation to ALL its victims of the #BuildingSafetyCrisis.
Tom Symonds@BBCTomSymonds

The chain of cover-ups that led to Grenfell - UnHerd. ⁦@PeteApps⁩ whose book is excellent. Points out here the attempts by government POST Grenfell to claim the cladding on the building had been ‘banned’. Proven not true by the ban later announced unherd.com/newsroom/the-c…

Second distressed case of #WakingWatchScam in 2 days. @NFCC_FireChiefs @YvetteCooperMP There is no evidence WW works. It just destroys reserves of buildings and cripples leaseholders financially. It's time to stop this @rushanaraali @AngelaRayner x.com/r1ch1eb/status…
UK Cladding Action Group@ukcag

1/2 The Fire Brigade @LondonFire continues to impose draconian & ineffective #WakingWatchScam on buildings to protect their own backs. This is despite evidence that it is ineffective and destroys financial reserves of buildings. The @NFCC_FireChiefs continues to get away with it.

Insidious and dangerous practices here being allowed by @mhclg. If @AngelaRayner & @Keir_Starmer do not get a grip of this, it's only a matter of time before another tragedy will strike. #BuildingSafetyCrisis

🏗️ ICYMI: Last week @mhclg published a monthly update of building safety remediation data, with a quarterly update on developers & social housing👇 🔎 Hidden in the data tables (not visible on the dashboard), there is some new data that is troubling. 1/ gov.uk/government/pub…

@mhclg #Ballymore has self-declared more than half its buildings (48 out of 85), despite most of its assessed buildings being found to need remediation (25 of 37). 👉Fairview, Miller & Grosvenor have also made self-declarations ✉️ If you are affected by this, please get in touch! 4/4

@mhclg The data shows developers using this loophole tend to have a high failure rate (% requiring remediation) when their buildings *are* professionally assessed. This could be particularly concerning where a developer is also the freeholder. Where are the checks & balances? 🫤 3/
