@PeteApps@EOCS_Official Sadly true. While the only comprehensive & equitable solution remains on the Westminster table, shunned by the self interested.
And
Leaseholders Keep Paying!
What a disgrace to common decency
The only comprehensive and equitable solution is Polluter Pays. It was torpedoed only by vested interests whose priority was the end of leasehold and widespread application of commonhold. Bring back PP to the Parliament. Everything else has failed.
OR
Leaseholders Keep Paying!!
We need all 1.7 million excluded leaseholders from protection from ruinous remediation costs protected and an end to the sub standard developer contract partial remediations condemming people to permanently high insurance and unsellable flats.

With the appalling defect rates for blocks of flats. We need permanent joint and several liability on the developer or lead contractor or their parent companies without the need of court with a levy to catch any shortfalls.
We need the Earl of Lytton's https://t.co/6WC8j1LRXh
Details of the Berlin fire are in the report drawn up for the steering group set up by the last govt to identify which cladding products needed investigation/testing/banning in the wake of the Grenfell fire. No action was taken.
@BBCNews story today on the dangers of EPS Cladding on blocks of flats.
1) Australian test video shows high fire spread with fire pools up and down the building as dangerous as Grenfell cladding.
2) Toxic fumes with cancer risk
3) Condemns residents to permanently high insurance 4) Still allowed on buildings in the UK with fire breaks.

We call for an end to the SUBSTANDARD post Grenfell remediations condemning people to permanently high insurance and risking making their flats unsellable permanently as raised by @PropertymarkUK@TedBaillieu@mtpennycook#JournoRequest
@HarryScoffin@UKLabour No point remediating partially if we end up with the following outcomes after the works complete. We need to reform the PAS9980 standard so flats are fully safe, insurable and sellable.
With so many building safety defects around the country and around the world.
The time has come for consumer protection for blocks of flats legislation.
The Earl of Lytton's https://t.co/6WC8j1MpMP check it out!
@PhilH23 The culture change is here the Earl of Lytton's https://t.co/ZBgpW4q0m1. Only permanent joint and several liability on the developer or lead contractor or their parent companies without the need of court with a levy to catch any shortfalls will sort this corrupt industry out.
“She did not qualify for assistance to remove that cladding, and that basically rendered her property unsellable, and that caused her a great amount of stress and anxiety." #RIP Amanda 💚 @mhclg @AngelaRayner pls wake up! https://t.co/kOoQYHFyKK
Our Dear Amanda was a vital member of the Earl of Lytton's https://t.co/6mb7YFFbg3 team and we miss her deeply.
We need Amanda's Law - the Earl of Lytton's https://t.co/6mb7YFFbg3 to protect Amanda's everywhere.
She was failed by the government's Building Safety Act, 2022 which cruelly excluded her from all protection from non cladding costs due to being enfranchised against her will.
She believed in the Earl of Lytton's solution as it would have protected her and the other 1.7 million excluded people like her.
The government to this day has chosen to make people in Amanda's situation PERMANENTLY liable for the non cladding defects caused by the construction industry.
It's a disgrace, when will this injustice end?
She tried to warn the government - they ignored her: https://t.co/ap1JDALw0j
@Grenfellnextkin@INCENDIOdeiMoro We need the deal with the post Grenfell Elephant in the room. The government have chosen not to make developers fully remove all combustible material, banned on new buildings, from existing. This could make flats unsellable and unisurable according to Propertymark. See below...
This is very very much the new normal. While insurers and management companies wriggle, central government moves on, local people pay the bill and the residents’ misery deepens. Shameful https://t.co/5rIzkhU8eM
The cladding fire victims of Milan @INCENDIOdeiMoro had to pay for their own clean up, the debris removal as well. They were presented with bills, including one from the bus company who had to move the bus stop. Though that was later reversed. The point is, unless dozens of people die, or their is a duty of care by the State as a landlord, private property owners living in ticking timebombs are totally abandoned.
The Italians had to continue paying their mortgages after a short mortgage freeze, and find somewhere new to live and pay rent there too, as well as everything else given their homes were destroyed and all their belongings.
Same in the Valencia cladding fire...similar story. @aproicam
How is any of this rampant dergulated multinational profiteering fair?
