Grenfell Tower – Incendiary Opinion

The Monbat published a good piece in today’s Guardian, in which he
reveals some of the corruption and immorality that’s at the core of the
Grenfell Tower tragedy:
A public inquiry where the government chooses charges, judge and
jury puts the bonfire of regulations outside the frame. An independent
commission is needed
Gatekeeper George seems to be gaining a conscience, as does the CIAdian,
although methinks they are just trying to assuage public opinion about
the Grenfell Tower tragedy, public opinion that could explode at any
moment, because the tragedy embodies everything that’s wrong and rotten
about neo-conservatism and 21st century Britain. The anger on the
streets has been nicely summed-up by a young rapper called ‘Potent
Whisper’ (aka Georgie Stephanou) with a piece called Grenfell Britain…
If you want to drill down deeper into what actually happened at Grenfell
Tower, and how many people are dead, and the corruption, etc, I can
highly recommend last weekend’s Sunday Wire podcast. The original
podcast is three hours long, and the Grenfell Tower stuff is
interspersed with long segments about what’s going on in the Middle
East, so I’ve edited it into a shorter piece entirely about Grenfell
Tower. As if the editing wasn’t enough, I’ve had mega problems uploading
this and making it available on various video sharing sites; but I’ll
get into all that another time…
The original three hour long Sunday Wire podcast can be found here (the
segments about the Middle East are also well worth a listen).
