BBC now stressing the cladding in the #BoltonFire wasn't the same flammable cladding used on Grenfell Tower.
Just some other flammable cladding, so that's ok then...
The news doesn’t seem to think this is important enough, so I’m trying to spread the news! Cladding burning to the ground on a STUDENT block, 2 years after grenfell! We are so lucky to be safe #boltonfire
There is deep concern in the Irish retrofit industry that imminent changes to Part L of the building regulations could decimate the market for external insulation.

Minister @RichardbrutonTD has issued statement on deep retrofit pilot scheme and has announced details of new retrofit delivery model to replace pilot scheme. @Dept_CCAE https://t.co/7iPLhIShSC
I've just emailed @LeoVaradkar and @RichardbrutonTD to say I can't believe they're trying to stop TDs even debating future oil and gas drilling. It's such hypocrisy after all the rhetoric of last few weeks. Join me: #ClimateEmergency = #KeepItInTheGround https://t.co/GvXlkJIEvL
350 homes retrofitted on SEAI deep retrofit scheme in 3 years from 2017 - 2019 an average of just over 2 homes per week. Paris agreement target 1.6m existing Irish homes to be retrofit by 2050, which equates to 992 per week for next 31 years!! disgraceful @SEAI_ie#deepretrofit
The total budget for the Deep Retrofit Pilot grant scheme was €21.2m over 2017-19. 350 homes have had grants and approved. SEAI CEO Jim Gannon has indicated average grant was under €25k, meaning a total of €8.75m. Where’s the other €12.5m?
“It's a slap in the face for those who are trying to improve the energy rating of their homes," says @CiaranCuffe. "Coming months after the Government launched its Climate Action Plan, it makes a mockery of their attempts to take climate change seriously." https://t.co/FXgl1eajsC
