They were living there because they were dumped there. Did any one actually know how many lived there. Illegal subletting? It was obvious the landlords could not care a damn. Imagine putting gas as a energy source into a building. You take the gas out of these buildings.
Dumped in North Kensington? :funny: :funny:

Most people need to work all their life in a high-paid job to live in North Kensington. And then they also need a rich Daddy to pay the deposit.

Well if they want to live there just go along and see if there is a bedroom to rent. Some nice person might have one over and join the other three families living in a four bedroom flat.

Well, you, being a cunt, are definitely mammalian. Other than that, I'd need to see the evidence.

It won't be demolished. The tenants have been rehoused in the city and will move back into their apartments when the flammable exterior cladding has been removed. I guess new cladding and an internal sprinkler system will be installed later on.

Apparently Buckingham Palace is now a safety hazard and needs millions in refurbishments, could you make this up?

It still uses vulcanised rubber for electric cables. That was scrapped in favour of plastic sometime in the middle of the last century.

Weird. I must have been really drunk when I hacked your account. Sorry bout that.
A rational skeptic should be able to discuss and debate anything, no matter how much they may personally disagree with that point of view. Discussing a subject is not agreeing with it, but understanding it.

Seems that every piece of cladding that's been tested, 120 samples from 30+ regions so far, has failed the government's flammability test. Surely the question now is who is making this stuff, who is approving this stuff, who is buying this stuff, and who is fitting this stuff? Oh hang on, that four questions.... I'll come in again.
