Whats the betting you would have been outraged if Corbyn had said the same thing?

I tend not to call the offence police, it's a bit snowflakey.

I recall that the Grenfell residents said that there had been power supply issues but I haven't seen that mentioned as a cause of the fridge freezer fire:

So what’s the link with Liverpool fans?

Pretty sure you're one fo the people who claimed to be so offended by political correctness that you voted leave because of it. I'm pretty that was the entire point behind the phrase "and that's why Leave won".

“ With the information they had” - they would make a judgement, they would use their common sense (as those that ignored stay put did).

“I think if either of us were in a fire, whatever the fire brigade said, we would leave the burning building. It just seems the common sense thing to do and it’s such a tragedy that didn’t happen”.

Which is what 144 people did in the first half hour, it’s not a condemnation on those that couldn’t.

I wonder how Burnley Ace feels about the Tories trying to claim that they are victims of demonisation over this.

I wonder why the Tories have always been known as the Nasty Party?

I can think of other names for them and for Rees Mogg and Johnson

I've just been sent a link to this article - it's dated Wednesday 13 June 2018 but the information in this article regarding the Stay Put policy needs to be understood by everyone who is criticising this in this post.
