800 households being evacuated right now in Swiss Cottage & told literally nothing - no notice - or 30 mins notice don't know where they are going, TV news filming them as they come out - disgraceful - told they will be away for around 3 weeks to remove cladding -but also told gas prob - nothing about what accommodation they are going to or proper info , not even time to pack belongings

Hundreds of Camden flats evacuated amid cladding fears - BBC News

 

[Dandred]

With all this talk of so many similar clad buildings going on, isn't it just inviting some religious nutters to go around setting fire to them in the dead of night? Either these religious nutters have no idea, or the government is incompetent by allowing this information to go public so soon. Probably both, as they are as fuck witted as each other.

TOLD YOU SO!

 

[Treacle Toes]

What tonight? Just like that?

Hundreds of Camden flats evacuated amid cladding fears - BBC News

Really happy that resident safety is being taken seriously but...NOTICE helps!

Also...AGEIST of me yes, perhaps...how the hell does someone in her 30s become head of a large London Borough?

By actually doing something?

By being the daughter of Tony Blair's best mate.

 

[Dandred]

I wonder who called the services about this?

 

[Dandred]

All it takes is one religious nutter with a can on petrol........ Christians are known for starting fires outside of buildings....

 

[butchersapron]

It's monstrous. Shut up and do what we say we know best - in both the fire and the now 'reaction' to it. No one else's voice is heard or considered legitimate. People can't put up with this.

Going out and getting votes?

He is a councillor...not the head of a large London borough. Stop being silly.

Ignorance is bliss, enjoy it.

I doubt Camden Council share your worries about pyromaniac God-botherers. It's just some antsy bureaucrats, concerned about malfunctioning white-goods, applying the precautionary principal in a cack-handed way.

You need to temper your theophobia a little

 

[Dandred]

Have you guys missed this? Quite prophetic, no?

Yes. Quite.

 

[Dandred]

I bet it isn't the only council by the end of tomorrow, thank religions nutters for that!

 

[butchersapron]

Just to save time for anyone who is tempted to spend time on this clown.

 

[Orang Utan]

Fuck off, Dandred

Fucking hell, doesn't she live in Korea?

 

[tim]

It's spelt with a "pat-" not a "prop-"

 

[butchersapron]

Fucking hell, doesn't she live in Korea?

Possibly - they need off this conversation, and preferably, this board. Let's not allow them to make it about them though.

 

[Dandred]

Missing the point..... going for the lizards!

 

[tim]

Fucking hell, doesn't she live in Korea?

That would explain her enthusiasm for firm paternal secular leadership

 

[Dandred]

I may have made a drunken post about some world domination in the past, but I was quickly re-educated by the good people of U75, no more lizards for me!

 

[Dandred]

I wonder how many more councils will make similar evacuations based on internet rumors?
