Jesus christ. If it was making Labour look bad you'd be politicizing the f**k out of it.

Who said she was the real victem?

And Labour have done nothing I could have had a go at? could have had a field day.

But to keep constantly trying to lay the blame on her when she can't possibly have known anything about the fire hazzards in the tower is nothing short of absurdity.

Worst still, it's using the deaths of those people for political motives. You and others may not have a problme with that, but I do.

As for how she deals with the press and public, it's been pretty clear to me since I was first aware of her she's an heads down office type of person.

It's always the finger pointers that would have done everything perfectly.

What we have here is a natural tragidy, it could have been prevented, but then, it may not, sprinkler systems may not have been effective against it.

What needs to be ask what was in the building materials that made a building like that catch fire and spread so rapidly. Fire engines was in the scene in minutes pooring gallons of water on and it still did nothing to holt the spread.

From what I could see on the news, the fire spread up the outside and they escape routes blocked off due to smoke. I don't know how effective sprinklers are against smoke, out side or via the detritus in the cavens of the walls.

You see you're talking about specific details of the disaster now. I won't do that until all of the information is available. My comments so far have been related to political, media and public reaction to the tragedy, and up to a point, our reaction to their reaction.

You may have seen on the actual London Fire thread someone posted a link to twitter where Labour MP Clive Lewis tweeted a picture that I believe actually IS politicizing the tragedy. And I responded to that post with exactly what I think, which is that I think it is a disgrace.

Now what I do NOT think is a disgrace and do NOT think is politicizing a tragedy, is the Labour Party as a whole, Her Majesty's opposition, asking legitimate questions of the government about how their policies and decisions may potentially have made this disaster worse than it would otherwise have been.

It's called holding the government to account... you know...? ... Their job?

Just so we're clear. I'm not trying to change your mind. I'm not even bothered about what you think. But while some people have a certain need to post incorrect, blinkered and biased information, it is important that information is adequately challenged. Even on a wank channel forum...

Therein lies the point. I've actually been saying all along it SHOULD be about the victims, anything else at the moment should be put aside and left till later.

Nobody knows how or why anything has happend yet (thought some suggestions have been made has I mentioned). An investigation and an inquiry later should reveal that. But that hasn't stoped all the finger pointing and blaming; with the aim of most of this finger pointing being at May.

Yes, people should be brought to account, AFTER an enquiry, not before and certainly not before all the victems have yet to be identified as much as possible.

As for Labour, I have actually said very very little about them, which I certainly could.

Yout post is very passive aggresive.

Come back later and tell me it's not political with an aim to try and remove May from office.

No you got it a bit wrong there too. You were talking about building details with regard to it's adherance to fire regulations, and the scale of the catastrophe in an attempt to absolve the Conservative government of any accountability whatsoever. That information is NOT available yet. Which is why I didn't and will continue not to engage with that.

Labour MPs are asking questions about policy with regard to emergency service cuts and what they have potentially done to hinder adequate prevention of response to disasters. That information IS available. We know about the cuts.

Thanks for the amateur psychology. Probably best if you leave that to the experts aswell. Unless you're planning to save me money on a psychiatrist?

It's pretty obvious ulteria motives are in place too.

I rest my case.

You're not the first to try and be smarmy with me.
