Re: O/T Grenfell fraudsters....
Not a surprise that some have tried, there are a lot of freeloaders in London (not least in Westminster). However, for one family to have gotten something like £1 million in aid when one of them is a convicted fraudster is alarming.
More fraud trials around Grenfell to come undoubtedly. Hopefully anybody found guilty will be severely punished for depriving the real victims.

That's unfair on what's deemed vermin,a rat pigeon or fox is preferable to a pile of sh!t on your shoe! Vietnamese aren't Brown are they?claretandy wrote:yes, but, err, poor brown people.
Re: O/T Grenfell fraudsters....
What about the fraudsters who were sub letting their flats in Grenfell to the poor people who died?
These pieces of sh1t were in receipt of flats they weren’t even living in. Receiving housing benefits for the flats then sub letting. I believe they were offered an amnesty in order that the authorities could accurately assess the number of people who perished and who they were.

Re: O/T Grenfell fraudsters....
Listening to the radio yesterday and apparently the fireproof doors were only able to last half the time they're meant too.
Poor quality and/or poor fitting meant they weren't up to the minimum requirements.
There are a number of people who need prosecuting for various offences from false claims to providing substandard products.

Re: O/T Grenfell fraudsters....
10..great post Greenmile, that's exposed him...see the link... well worth a view.
There is NO need to mention the 'colour' of any person on this thread [unless of course you're pursuing some thinly veiled agenda].
There are about half a dozen obvious racists on this forum, it's not difficult to see who they are...some of them have double identities.
I think claret andy will disappear from here fairly soon, only to re-appear with a new user-name some short time later.
Re..the OP - not good at all, the law will deal with that lot.
- there is a massive amount of corruption in this country, at all levels of society, for amounts of money much greater than mentioned above - I wish the searchlights exposed more of it, including going right to the top.

Front doors. I live in a flat built in 1962 whose front doors do not meet the FB30 (thirty minute standard) that is today's requirement. Whilst they should seek permission, many like to change their front doors. It may be that some owners of the Grenfell flats have done this.
It would also be interesting to know if an FB30 fire door would have saved any lives in the Grenfell incident - I suspect not.
Whilst the failure of the fire door in the test might be symptomatic of the whole set up I wouldn't have thought it was crucial. How the fire spread so quickly from the original source is surely the key question.
On sub letting, I suspect this was known in general terms but was and is difficult to deal with. It goes on everywhere and is therefore a separate issue not confined to Grenfell.

Re: O/T Grenfell fraudsters....
Only half a dozen?
You would think about 50% of posters are racist on here if you listen to some people

Re: O/T Grenfell fraudsters....
Who?
There is one, and several who clearly are bigots, but the rest have concerns about stuff that we all have concerns about.
The difference (and this is where it gets really easy) is that the ones who have problem with brown people bring it up in every thread. And only one person does that. Which is why he's been named.

But don't mention the illegal sub letting, or the claiming that your family died in order to obtain money or the claiming 15 lived in a 2 bed flat. If you do, then you're a racist.

Re: O/T Grenfell fraudsters....
Not in the least bit surprising.
This country pi$$es me off more and more each day. Society in general too. I wish we loved in a generation where peoples motives, intentions and ambitions were all genuine and positive.
Unfortunately way too many people are out for me, me, me, scams, greed etc.
Hopefully the law and karma deal with these ****. I don't hold my breath on the former though.

Re: O/T Grenfell fraudsters....
The country's an absolute mess. From the incompetent and possibly downright evil government all the way down to **** like this whose fraud detract from real victims plight, via everything in between. Every strata of society is filled with nasty bastards only out for themselves.
All you can do is bumble through your own life trying to make the best of it and not treat everyone else like ****.

IF you are light skinned ("white") you haven't avoided being called racist; it's been said (at least once, & recently by Munroe Bergdorf) "All white people are racists"I've managed to go my whole life without anyone calling me a racist.

I voted remain. I've been called all sorts of things because of it unfortunately. Sadly it's a very divisive debate where both sides feel it's better just to insult each other.

Re: O/T Grenfell fraudsters....
The right of free speech will continue to be abated as long as racism and sexism accusations are bandied about as freely as they have of late.
The reason why social media indicates high levels of support for the left is because those of a centre or centre-right persuasion are too often accused of racism and consequently aren't willing engage in debate on such platforms. They will, however, vote.
Those who cry racism, sexism, bigotry at every opportunity are stifling constructive debate in society in order to hold what they perceive as the moral high ground.

Re: O/T Grenfell fraudsters....
If some of the posters on here would try to put themselves in others' shoes, Immigrants, people of colour Refugees etc!... really! try to see it from their point of view. This requires actually talking to people! understanding where they're from ....instead of judging on colour ,appearance, language etc etc. You might find that they share your values/ they may surprise you!....They have children! they want a better life for them (the children)....health, education, safety etc....to me that signifies a good person!.. Someone who is trying.
As someone who grew up near Colne in the 60's and experienced the hostility to ANYONE who was even slightly different......let me tell you!.. you lot need a bit of fresh blood mixing in!... I've lived in Los Angeles for over 30 yrs, we have so many exotic mixed race people that nobody gives a **** anymore.
It's a beautiful sight and it's coming to a place near you ....so get over it!...... UP THE CLARETS! And you're going to love it! I'll take a well meaning Immigrant, over some nasty hoodie wearing teenager and his mates...who have been let roam free whilst you're out at the pub!.....
