Doesn't matter what happens to him really, he will never pay the money back.

[ummmm]

He's a disgrace.

Would this story have been more acceptable to some had it been reported in other outlets?
There has been a lot of fraud involved in this tragedy. There were x flats destroyed surely then x flats should be found and only for those who could be proved to be living there legitimately. Those whose names were on the books but were sub-letting should not be provided with the means to continue their scam.

Lynne what other punishment would you suggest. I can supply scalpel blades xxx

[Mamyalynne]

Punishment within our laws.

[sandyRoe]

One minor point, he hasn't been convicted yet.

[TonyV]

Ok Lynne getting carried away again xxx

[TonyV]

Sandy I'm no bookmaker but give you 10 to 1 he will be found guilty

"I cannot understand how some councils seem to have no idea who is living in a property."

Ineptitude, laziness, corruption, an unwillingness to confront those who go straight to screaming in their native tongue when challenged, fear of accusations of racism, misplaced sympathies, favouritism.

Other stuff is available

[Theland]

Virtually every interviewee associated with Grenfell is not British, and these frauds seem to be a part of their culture. Along with illegals and sub lets.
I wonder what the benefit burden is?

[Deskdiary]

^^^that is a very reasonable question.

It's a shame there's a couple of people on this thread who by not condemning it are showing tacit approval.

[youngmafbog]

Totally agree The Land.

But evenue on this site we see TROB defending.

[cassa333]

As tragic as the fire was I would only have supported those that were registered to live there. Any sub letting by the original tenant should have been easily found out.

Honestly how can a council not know who Should be resident?

[Mamyalynne]

Good to see the tacit approval and TROB cards played, still for every person who defended him (where are they then?_ there's a few that would break the law and possibly end up sharing a cell with this creep.

[TonyV]

Cell is last place I would put him Lynne, I have a good spade

[EDDIE51]

Slightly beside the point, but having been in Prison myself, it's not too bad. 3 fresh cooked meals a day and a warm bed with freash bedding every week. I saw MANY people who were reluctant to leave.

[vetuste_ennemi]

But you were "in" prison as a welfare office or whatever rather than as a lag, weren't you Eddie?

By the way, SAS that before or after you were advising Kenneth Kaunda on Zambian infrastructure?
