    The questions posed by many of these journo's is at times, beyond moronic.
    Some bint on ITV actually led a bloke and his little girl out of the rescue centre and back towards the smoking tower yesterday to see what his thoughts were, shortly after they'd fled the building. It's almost as if she wanted to re traumatise the poor kyunt and his youngster in order to get her story.
    Does anyone really need an hourly update on just how many poor souls lost their lives, or is it just the usual ****ery of the media These kyunts really are worse than estate agents..
    Will there be a silence for these people who died? Who decides on this stuff.

    I've also lost all faith in humanity. That video that a woman broadcast live on facebook whilst being trapped? Is that the first thing you can think of to do? sad times.

    Sadly it might have been the first and last thing she thought of doing

    I lived near that place when I first move to London and trust me, it is very, very, very nasty there. Not a place to go out at night alone.

    I'm guessing they're going to find that place was a tinder box and people were being fleeced by a dodgy landlord.

    Landlord is the local authority, and as everyone has been saying, it looks like the cladding may have been the conduit for the fire to spread. All the towers by Archway tube station near me have just been clad to look better. It's happening everywhere. If they've been using flammable cladding in these places then that is madness. Not without reason was London constructed of brick and stone after 1666, and more recently concrete and glass.

    I dunno how long ago that was when you were there WES, but if it was 20 years or so then it will have changed. I've walked past that block twice in the last couple of years and like so much of London now, it is mixed. Grim but slightly improving council estates nestled alongside streets of million or multi-million-pound houses. Ladbroke Grove, Notting Hill and Holland Park are only minutes away.
