Crazy Woman Tina Buckley who spent some time outside Downing Street screaming away like a nutter was spotted at Kensington riling up the crowd.
More Momentumites spotted.
And of course lots of Socialist Worker banners as ever.
This protest and storming of Kensington Town Hall had very little to do with the actual Grenfell tower people and mostly involved people completely uninvolved screaming, chanting and making up shit like how there's a gagging order on the press to suppress "the real body count" rather than the fact the situation is very difficult and the tower is likely unstable.
Indeed, London Fire Service is so worried about what may happen to its Firefighters its asking their men and women to write their name and number on the back of their helmets in the event of a building collapse.
It legitimately turns my stomach at how low these socialist fuck toys will go to try and score points, it really does.

They aren't rioting (yet) but Momentum and ANTIFA are trying to rile up the community because 'Fuck the Tories'. BLM aren't involved, as they are a complete fucking joke in the UK. So whoever put that in the title is a numpty.

Lol BLM UK supporters are a joke and no one takes them seriously. Like when they protested at an airport runway and it turned out all of them were white.

As the firebobby CrispyMick said on Twitter, "You know it's going to be bad when they tell you to scratch your name into your helmet to identify the body" the London Fire Brigade has been fucking amazing during this whole thing during the initial blaze they honestly thought that they were going to lose some firefighters and they still kept going in to try and save people.
The building it's self is seriously compromised from my understanding, the Steel and Concrete pylons that anchor the 24 stories above the ground into the earth need to extend a fair way upwards into the tower and are then anchored to the main steel frame of the building and they might have been shattered or at least really badly weakened by the fire so much so that they might have to demolish at least part of the building before they can fully finish body recovery to make it stable before winds pick up and cause loose parts to go flying around.
As I said before this whole mess has been jumped on by Momentum, they are fucking loving this because it let's them try an spin the additional political narrative they have been pushing for the last few years as actually being a thing i.e. the Poor are perpetual victims and Comrade Corbin will make it all better, and that shit about the gagging order is absurd the only times a D notice are issued is if it is something monumentally important infact about the only time I can recall a D notice being issued was during the build up to the invasion of Iraq and the subsequent troop build ups and training and even then it wasn't heavily enforced or only used for certain things. In situations like this, the Government is smart enough to know that people understand there is going to be at least 100+ dead and it's better to be seen to be doing something about it than it is to suppress any discussion of it.
It's genuinely fucking sickening isn't it, in times like this the parties should come together to try and make sure that nothing like this can happen again and traditionally they do but sadly today shit like this is now seen as a brilliant opportunity to try and push for what they want rather than for a real soloution to this bollocks.

tbh, BLM supporters everywhere are a joke, not just in the UK.

But they are like trippaly so here, the UK has been voted the least racially divided country in the EU, hell we have had black people as a common part of our navy since the 1650's some were very well respected too.

Britain had a long history of black immigrants being well integrated, though, not to mention many being from countries which were part of the Empire. It also didn't hurt that 3 of the top cricket teams in the world were black and from the same nations as many immigrants.
You see it a bit here, too. The first wave of immigrants from some places integrated really well, but recent waves from the same place not so much. The specific flavour of black you are matters here far more than than fact of you being black.

Seems the Momentum is turning... local MP who's complaining to the council... was on the Grenfall tower scrutiny committee until 2014 and would have likely helped plan or approve the refurb work that was such a disaster.
This included a measly £5000 saving which would've had the cladding replaced with the fireproofed version.

This is a recurring theme in America as well. None of us like that new immigrants get to skip the integration process our ancestors went through and then demand we tolerate them.

It also hurts the integration process as well, quite badly. By this point a lot of Afro-Carribbeans are reaching that Middle Class Plateau here in the UK, as are a lot of Indians who're now naturalized. The Hindu and Sikh communities in particular are now being eroded thanks to their Muslim Pakistani brethren.
We now have the daft situation of Second Generation/Third Generation migrants bemoaning the fact that they fear their kids (4th! 4th Gen!) won't be considered "properly british" because of how people's attitudes are now shifting back after decades of slow and steady acceptance.
It's becoming apparent to all but the aching trendies in their white suburbs that no integration hurts wider society, it's certainly obvious in provincial England.

As if this was a surprise lol. I knew Ray was a bit of a dodgy cunt when he liquidated his own business to sell the assets to himself.

The top link for Grenfell BLM is daily stormer, sooo...
I was really hoping this wouldn't turn into a political slapfight. Can't we just unite in how shit our governments are? Do people really think their party is less full of elitist cunts?

I'm sure building management could have afford to update the sprinkler system if niggers paid their bills.

It's kind of offtopic but it does bother me that people on welfare live in one most expensive parts of the country/world (The estimate I heard for an apartment in the place where the fire occurred was £2000 a month/£24,000 (Around $30,750) a year which is cheap for the area) and feel so entitled to live there the thought of having to live elsewhere in the country causes them to go into hysterics.
Although I guess that's less of a concern right now compared to people burning alive.

I'm curious about that myself, stuff like that can and WILL trigger the taxman and he's a very good proctologist.
DSS so it's paid directly to the landlords.
TBH that's just what happens in London, you have the average flat cost something like 1 million for a 1 bedroom in a OK area, rentals are a joke in London even by British standards (smallest houses in Europe and cost more on average as well) the problem is with London it's an international money pit lots of investment companies just buy property here and trade them around because it's always going to go up in value (seriously Saudi an China-based companies are a bastard for this) making a market stabilisation hard to take effect, and nobody want's to work in London an commute even if they are on London Minimum wage (if your a high earner though that's a different story).

And so the cannibalism starts with some literal necroposting...
North London is going to be a warzone within a week at this rate.
