Grenfell Tower Fire | 14th June 2017

You guys are missing the point - that feed is a parody of the Dail HateMail, written specifically to take the piss out of its readers and those who hate them.
 
What are you on about? It posts screen grabs from the DM, all those pics are real.

And overlays them with deliberately provocative, pretend headlines.

Like I said....It's for people who hate the Hatemail readers and people who hate the people who hate the HateMail readers....
 
Full bodied red is full of shit. Everything on DM reporter is things on the daily mail website, not doctored.

Everything in the images is real, the comment accompanying the images is from the person who runs the Twitter account, obviously.

The headlines and comments are all genuine DM site content, I've no idea wtf @Full bodied red is on about.

@Full bodied red

Did you make a mistake mate or did you mean something else?
 
Who gives a toss anyway? Some of you are probably spending more time reading the Daily Mail than those who have it delivered each morning.

Aye, not like we've had any recent examples of what unrestricted hate being slung around can lead to...

I never visit their site, I follow that Twitter account for an insight into the vulgarity of the DM and it's shitbag comment leavers. I'd also say there is very valid reason to "give a toss" given what their divisiveness contributes to.
 
Turns out the flats the council bought were designed to be social housing anyway, and may be separate (i.e through a 'poor door') to the luxury side of the block. That's just speculation on reddit though, so it could be BS.

The flats have been sold to the council at cost though, which is a good gesture.

The extent to which hate is prevalent in a society should primarily be attributed to the failure of government, be it locally or centrally.

However my original post was merely a throwaway remark, as i am always surprised at how much time people dedicate toward discussing the paper.


Let me guess, you're fully supportive of this brave, compassionate conservative brainchild, unlike last week when it was a vile socialist plot to seize the assets of hard working job creators?

Yes, I know its a different scheme..

A little melodramatic, Ken.

I simply saw the headline and thought, good, there's some definitive action in the works.

The vile socialist plot would've been better than this conservative approach where 68 families are left without the option to buy a shared ownership flat.
 
I belive these were social housing units which were to be supplied as part of the planning application being granted

I believe those would've been shared ownership units, judging by the article. They were "bought", probably from the housing association who bought them originally from the developer.
 
Even by Mail standards those comments on the re-housing & financial aid to victims were completely disgusting.
 
Cladding seemingly confirmed as non compliant.
The Department of Communities and Local Government, which oversees building regulations, says: “Cladding using a composite aluminium panel with a polyethylene core would be non-compliant with current building regulations guidance. This material should not be used as cladding on buildings over 18m in height.”

Edit: Looks like 600 other towers have cladding and are being tested.

Trying to save £2 per square meter.

People not realising or caring very much about the difference when they're ordering materials. Confusion over the regulations.

General standards of work & difficulties monitoring as people were saying on here some time back.

But yet again dragging ours in - there's no paper records getting kept any more so they don't seem to care about keeping records very much, seems quite handy for the evading of responsibility mainly, any absence of information just sits nicely in line with the overall don't give a feck about people policy.

Be funny if the insurance companies pulled their cover wouldn't it? That'd generate some movement on resolving a few issues, I'm sure.
