100 months since we lost our 72 loved ones in the Grenfell fire.
Still no justice.
As the Tower fades from the skyline, please keep Grenfell in your hearts. We will never forget — and we will not stop until justice is done.
‘We have a bigger issue ... the first rung of the property ladder is toxic.'
Housing campaigner @HarryScoffin thinks the Tories' pledge to abolish stamp duty ignores ’substantial issues’, instead favouring the 'politics of easy answers’.
Dangerous cladding is still to be removed from 87 buildings across the West Midlands, figures show.
Remediation is currently underway on 18 buildings with work 87 yet to start.

@virginmedia we are having problems receiving tv in Cheadle Hulme (near Stockport) can you look into it please. Several people on the road are having problems
Just watched Grenfell: Uncovered.
A seriously hard-to-watch, extraordinarily sad film.
Shocking that thousands of homes are still unsafe 8 years on (including very many here in Southwark)
Everyone should watch — and demand action 💚

New Providence Wharf is a luxury block in Canary Wharf with a gym, pool and valets.
It's also set on fire three times in the last four years.
I found out what's been going on for @_TheLondoner

The grip of protecting the wealthy & powerful is so tight on this government - that not even the memories of those who died in a burning building can make them do the right thing.
Beyond shameful.
Thoughts with all the families who are still having to fight for justice.
And yet @UKLabour isn’t taking the quality and safety of our homes seriously.
@Keir_Starmer is scaling up the system that led to the Grenfell tragedy and has trapped thousands in unsafe, debt traps
NO ONE EXPECTS TO NEED A FOOD BANK, ESPECIALLY AT CHRISTMAS
But with more than 16 million people now living in poverty in the UK - a staggering 24% of the UK population @TrussellUK urgently need our help to provide emergency food, support & hope to people this winter

A theme of the Grenfell Tower Inquiry was witnesses saying they had no idea the materials they were using were dangerous. Worth saying that in quite a few incidences that evidence has been rejected by the panel #TheyKnew
