Which must have presented a fire risk by itself!
But how come 900? Because Mrs. May says that every family in that block will get 5,500 quid from that £5m fund. Looks like they've got the shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer to do the maths on this one.
She didn't say that was the maximum they would get.
Just noticed that Dianne Abbot has made a miraculous recovery. TM must have asked her to help with the numbers.
Perfectly consistent with Type 2 Diabetes, once you remove all the pressure she was under.
As you imply, that's an absurd number of families. There were 120 flats in the tower, say an average of four people per flat (OK so some will have more but also some less) so say 500 people. Estimates I've seen go as high as 600. But just because every family will get £5,500 doesn't mean that the whole £5 million will be given directly to the families, but will also go to pay for other supporting stuff (whatever that might be!).
Perfectly consistent with utter incompetence too
Ah yes, DA, that would certainly explain it. Is there *anyone* in Labour who can do basic sums? Are they themselves products of the rotten school system they created 50 years ago?
I'll bet the traumatised fire fighters won't see a penny of it!
That's a much more reasonable estimate. The layout diagrams I saw suggested 4 or 5 flats on each floor, so 120 would be about right.
The deduction by the OP that there were 900 is totally absurd - and is seeking to make a cheap point out of a very sad situation. Shame on him!
You may want to have a quick look at JC's academic history on Wikipedia...
I think the mentioned 6 per floor x 24 floors.

It's six per floor (but two of those are one-bed flats) on 20 inhabited floors.
Of course to - they all went to private schools.
I'm guessing he doesn't have an actual *work* history. I'll take a butcher's anyhoo.
Oh yeah, I really feel ashamed! :-D
Anyway, why all the intense focus on the insulation? How the hell did it get ignited in the first place, FFS? That's what I want to know. No bastard seems to give a s*it about that and TMM it's the very *first* question we should be asking.
The cladding (and maybe the fire-breaks) is the focus, not the insulation ...
Private primary school (another one...), then a grammar secondary, finishing with two E-grade A-Levels.
Couple of years in Jamaica with the VSO, and since the age of 21 a trade unionist/Labour activist/councillor/MP until now.
So we can add diabetes to the vast range of subjects you know nothing about?
I do know my numbers though...
