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 buildingsafetyscheme.org

So what we are being told is that thousands of leaseholders are at risk or losing their lives at any moment, within their homes.. due to the material that the builders decided to cost their buildings in.. And they are supposed to just sit and wait for things to change? 🤔

@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…

7 years since Grenfell, thousands are still trapped in unsafe flats or have been left homeless. It’s described as a national disgrace which is destroying the health of those affected. Developers, councils, government, freeholders continue to pass the buck itv.com/news/2024-10-1…

Until developers actually get sent to prison, they'll just keep on building crap, dangerous homes, cashing in & moving on. Honestly, when I look at 'petty' crime & how those offenders are dealt with, why wouldn't the same people aspire to a life where crime actually pays?

Fire Chief Andy Roe warns of dangers of ongoing Building Safety Crisis. We can't just fix at pace with the flawed PAS9980 standard, buildings need to be fixed fully to the same standards as new buildings.

Fixing buildings to anything less than the new build standards creates a 2 tier market. A market for homes that are built to standard and those which are not. Homes in which people will sleep with one eye open, incase, like so many others in defective flammable homes, they…

If we can't trust builders.. Then can we at least trust building inspectors? Concerning comments below.

A “great product” or “the devil”. SO strongly divides opinion. Some people have had a good experience. A great many (far too many) have not.

Half a million people will go to sleep tonight in homes wrapped in flammable, Grenfell-style cladding. All too often, recommended remedial works have become jammed up in disputes over who is going to pay for them theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

We have been asking @mhclg to record the impact of the #BuildingSafetyCrisis on Mental Health, Finance etc since 2020. They refused. @Lees_Martina

The shocking risks of Post #Grenfell Remediations that result in a EWS1 B1 rating where combustible material remains on the building. Unless flats are safe, insurable and sellable, the remediation is not complete and the detriment continues. @rushanaraali @AngelaRayner…

Why does conveyancing take so long? Because of the absolute dogshit duties our overlords continue to impose upon hardworking and diligent solicitors. This mission creep has to stop. Please. Or there will be none of us left. And it'll be PPL and PCS fighting it out for the scraps.

Seven years after the Grenfell tragedy, new data reveals HALF of the buildings with dangerous cladding are still unsafe. @C4Ciaran explains.

I said it years ago… The state of New Build homes is dangerously bad. The government need to take it seriously or else they may meet their 1.5 million homes target but they’ll be having to rip them down again in 15 years time because they’ll be condemned or worse. I should not…

End the post Grenfell partial flammable remediations now! Take all the flammable off our homes! Let's learn from #Grenfell. The government has allowed builders to leave flammable material on tall residential towers when it is banned on new buildings. Watch the worrying report…
