Great video and sad all at the same time. I'm sure there were many hero's of the Grenfell tower fire like this gentleman who are probably unknown except to those they rescued.

Tragic events like this seem to bring out the best in most people like this gentleman who was selfless. Here's to Luca Branislav. :Kaleun_Salute:

Where would the owners of the building be if this was China?

Not looking forward to a particularly pleasant future I suspect.

I sometimes admire how China handles "I take full responsibility"

And so it should be but hopefully this will not be the end of the matter....those directly responsible (should the mistakes be proven to be criminal in context) should also be dealt with :yep:

Under the law, are they still liable for their actions even after they resign? Or is resignation a way they can avoid accountability? I am not familiar with brit law

As far as I'm aware there is no statute of limitations.

ON CNN this AM: 600 other tall tower type buildings ate being scrutinized and seven have the same cladding which gives off daedly hydrogen cyanide when burning. Some victims who escaped were treated for inhalation isues at hospitals. Some witnesses said that the external fittings acted as a ‘firelighter’ and helped flames engulf the tower within 15 minutes: Bear in mind that using a fire stairway in optimal conditions is approx. one minute per floor. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4606068/Cladding-company-covered-six-blocks-London.html Harley Facades Ltd. owner Ray Bailey( with 25 years of 'practical experience') https://metrouk2.files.wordpress.com...8&h=595&crop=1 is staying put in his mansion with this comment....

Speaking last night, Mr Bailey said: ‘This is an incredibly tragic incident. Our thoughts are with the residents and their families who have suffered such a personal loss. We will fully support and co-operate with the investigations into this fire. At this time, we are not aware of any link between the fire and the exterior cladding to the tower.’

Hearing about this on LBC and some resident's are unaware of this! No knock on the door, one bloke rang in LBC and said he only knew about this because he had his radio on LBC.
