Grenfell inquiry latest on 10:47 - Nov 17 with 1730 views | Pendejo | All of the contractors refused to participate unless granted immunity, that should have been the first indicator they knew they'd (collectively) gambled with lives through lack of experience, lack of care etc. But this fella actually fiddled figures, if this is not a crime worthy of a prison sentence that reflects that it cost 72 people their lives, injured 70 more and will have long term psychological issues for years to come. They should all be moved to South Georgia now, for their own safety, and leave em there | |

The bbc think that some comments about devolution in a zoom meeting by Boris Johnson and the aftermath of an election in another country where nothing has happened for days are more important. | |

Is that true?! Link? The whole Grenfell thing has been a gross coverup of human neglect for financial gain from start to present. But it was the firefighters fault for following their own guidelines in an event that wasn’t factored in as safety regulations were lobbed out the window by the building contractors. And it was the resident’s fault for not being clever enough to ignore the advice of the professionals who are trained to save their lives. Gonna say it again but it you voted Tory you have blood on your hands and if you voted for them post-Grenfell you may as well bathe in said blood. | |

Hmm.... are you saying, for example, that Cecil Rhodes had legitimacy over Zimbabwe (or Zambesia) ? [Post edited 17 Nov 2020 12:02]

No, and how you got that idea from what I said is impressive. | |

You're not against people settling in other areas of the world, so I wondered at what point you think borders and the will of indigenous peoples should be respected? Is the answer never and, if so, should everything be a total free-for-all? | | | |

Indigenous people isn’t a very relevant term nowadays. There are some specific examples re: previously low-populated areas being colonized and thousands of years of culture threatened or wiped out e.g. Aborigines, Native Americans, Amazonian tribes etc. But really we should just be talking about citizens in most countries. And universal human rights to cover the gaps. | |

Grenfell inquiry latest on 12:48 - Nov 17 with 1502 views | GlasgowBlue | One of my daughters has just been evacuated from her accommodation at the West of London University after they just found the same issues as Grenfell. Students who have been there for some time say that the scaffolding has been around the building for a few years and they’ve know about this issue for a long time now. | |

The thing to remember here it’s not just one thing that went wrong, as with all disasters several different factors have an impact that amplify the outcome. | | | |

I mean, the second sentence baffles me, where on earth have I suggested that? Have you been taking social media lessons off Charlie Kirk?! I believe humans can live in harmony with each other and the planet. Dragging up "So you support Fascism?" seems to miss that point entiely. | |

it wasn't one thing indeed, but the money and partnerships flowing into cover ups of the issues is preventing us from getting genuine answers and accountability across the board. | |

I’ve just finished reading East West Street by Phillips Sands. A fascinating and tragic read. It covers the birth of human rights legislation and throws up some of the challenges faced when trying to apply it in practice after the failure of the Minority Treaties in the 30’s. Well worth a read if of interest. | |
