BILL THE GOVERNMENT, NOT THE RESIDENTS
PUBLISH ALL BLOCK SAFETY ASSESSMENTS
In the immediate aftermath of the terrible fire at Grenfell Tower the government pledged that money would not prevent vital safety work being done. But since then they have set their face against paying for sprinklers - an essential measure according to the London Fire Brigade. And at least one council, Tory-controlled Wandsworth in south London, plans to punish leaseholders with a charge of £4,000!
Jeremy Corbyn is absolutely right to demand that the Tories allocate £1 billion to fit sprinklers. As he says, it is obscene the government will not commit retrofitting funds while failing to tackle tax avoidance.
Safety can’t wait
