Held hostage in 'affordable' #SharedOwnership #leaseholdscandal - charged thousands for #wakingwatch and defective #cladding caused by corrupt UK Government

[CladdingPrisoner @cladding_prison]

"Affordable" housing associations charging shared ownership leaseholders for #wakingwatch and fixing non compliant #cladding. These are not "repairs" - it was a defect in the first place. @RobertJenrick @mhclg @ukcag

@British_Airways I have DM'ed with your Twitter bot and they are not responding.

. @British_Airways I'm getting married in <24hrs and our #luggage #delay in #BER since yesterday, so we've no groom suit and no wedding dress. #BA staff forced us to check in hand luggage but plane left without it. Tracking shows bags not found. #Wedding ruined - or can you help?

@Jonatha135113 Government:  leaseholders to get funding to remediate cladding <18m

Also government: there are NO CONSTRAINTS on cladding <18m

(See current 2020 building regs approved doc B table 10.1)

@michaelgove
@EOCS_Official

This is a bait and switch and we are getting an empty box

[CladdingPrisoner @cladding_prison]

@team_greenhalgh * Timber cladding is STILL compliant for sub 18m, see CURRENT building regulations.

Yet to get an EWS1 we are told it needs replacing.

[CladdingPrisoner @cladding_prison]

@team_greenhalgh The government IS the polluter!

Building Regulations not fit for purpose and/or not properly enforced.

Previously compliant materials are now deemed unsafe (eg Timber) - this has retrospectively been deemed "pollution" by Government.

@rachelbose1 @AlanBro85328883 @team_greenhalgh @RICSnews This is rather the point.

The gov have no right to cancel previous build regu approval and re-evaluate safety levels, unless they agree culpability and cover costs.

If they do, as they are trying to do, that is a fundamental breakdown of rule of law and morally abhorrent.

@team_greenhalgh @RICSnews .... fire safety field as a senior fire brigade officer & one of HM. Fire Services Inspectors specialising in fire safety. If you would be interested in knowing what I have to say on this matter, please DM me for a confidential response & I will prepare a paper & email it to you.

[x_Architect X 🧐 @Architect9991]

@team_greenhalgh @shamichakrabar1 @UKHouseofLords @michaelgove The Building Safety Bill forces costs to leaseholders and reevaluates recently completed building safety levels.

Neither is acceptable without Gov covering ALL COSTS.

The BSB / Act must not pass.

[x_Architect X 🧐 @Architect9991]

@team_greenhalgh @shamichakrabar1 @UKHouseofLords @michaelgove So, you admit Gov did fail to regulate so why are we (or the developers) to pay ?

It‘s Gov fault.

So pay. And why did you relax the regs under 18m yet still require remediation ?

We won’t pay loans.

We won’t rest.

[x_Architect X 🧐 @Architect9991]

@EOCS_Official @Beverle82823781 @CommonsHCLG PAS9980 is not acceptable as it contradicts current and previous building regulations. It is also vague and another open cheque opportunity for the fire industry.

And the cost implications of this will be major. We, leaseholders WILL NOT PAY.

PAS9980 will makes things worse.

[Cyril Moseley @cyrilmoseley]

A few more facts about the cladding crisis are:
1. The building industry does not have the capacity to remediate the cladding in anything less than 20+ years.

2. Leaseholders cannot possibly pay for the remediation. No way.

3. Why does HMG. not wake up to these impossibilities?

[Peter Apps @PeteApps]

Amid a flurry of coverage of the misery being caused by the cladding scandal this week, I think it's worth explaining that this problem comes from 30 years of building regulation failure and the fact that the government has not taken responsibility for that (thread)

[CladdingPrisoner @cladding_prison]

.@michaelgove please listen to @cyrilmoseley he knows what he is talking about

[Cyril Moseley @cyrilmoseley]

Let's see what we know about this situation.
1. Cladding is low fire risk.

2. Any risk from the cladding that does exist can easily be mitigated by sprinklers.

3.Sprinklers have a 94% reliability factor & 99% effectiveness factor.

4. Sprinklers will usually extinguish a fire

@SAMBRAD22257130 @ukcag @BorisJohnson @michaelgove @bbclaurak @KayBurley 1. Advice notes Dec 2018 and Jan 2020
2. They haven’t for under 18m. The ‘banned‘ materials still comply with building regulations for a new building

Yes, it’s utterly absurd and a clear scam

Gov are incompetent and don’t even hide it.

[CladdingPrisoner @cladding_prison]

@DuddenHelen @jules_birch @AccladinSane Except where does the remaining £10billion (at least) come from?

[Liam McKinnon @liammckinnon]

“Days away from a fire”.

That’s what I was told this week. I’ve been reading with horror about the #BuildingSafetyCrisis and here is my experience(s) of ongoing negligence from property developers: https://t.co/IQHFc1PsNw

#EndOurCladdingScandal

[CladdingPrisoner @cladding_prison]

Governments past and present caused the #claddingscandal, nobody else.

If developers built buildings that are now considered dangerous, it's because the government regulations (or lack of enforcement of them) allowed it to happen.

Now UK gov must pay for its mistakes.

[Cyril Moseley @cyrilmoseley]

@JSimpsonjourno @CommonsHCLG @michaelgove 2. Few cladding fires in thousands of tower blocks over many years must indicate the risk is at the lower end of the spectrum.

3.Cladding does not self- combust, it must be ignited.

4. If fires in flats are confined or extinguished before they reach cladding, risk is mitigated

[Cyril Moseley @cyrilmoseley]

@JSimpsonjourno @CommonsHCLG @michaelgove Hi Jack, I emailed Michael Gove in his capacity as Housing Minister and pointed out a few factors for him to consider, if he really is looking for a new approach to the cladding fiasco. I have listed these below.
1. No attempt has been made to quantify the cladding risk. .......

Adam Kiziak from Tri Fire gave our @BarrattHomes building an A1 rating in March 2020. In September he changed his mind and made it B1. Today we were downgraded to B2. This entire @RICSnews EWS1 process is a shambles. #BuildingSafetyCrisis
