Huge fire engulfs west London tower block.

[BIAD]

What I find worrying is the narrative that's being crafted in the media, it seems that
regardless of an investigation, the mainstream media are forging ahead in assisting
angry and confused residents to believe that it's the failings of certain organisations
and companies that led to the disaster and not the cause.

I agree that a sub-standard building may have contributed to the devastation and loss
of life, but this 'let's get the suits' witch hunt media outlets like the BBC and others seems
manipulative at best and condescending to the effected public at worst.

Here's an article from the Daily Mail and notice the obvious blame-aimed situation regarding
the photographs. They're all white.
Is this indicative of most council-funded Housing companies today, that they don't employ
people of colour...? or is the story devised to stir up racial problems?

Four managers at company paid £11million to manage inferno tower block shared more than
£650,000 pay last year.

'The company responsible for the safety and maintenance of the block of flats which turned into a raging inferno and
killed at least 12 people was paid £11million last year from taxpayer's money.
Grenfell Tower is owned by the borough council in Kensington and Chelsea, but the management of the building is the
responsibility of an independent company - Kensington and Chelsea Tenant Management Organisation (KCTMO).

from Rydon Construction who appeared on TV this morning admitting he did not know the
exact details of the materials used in the revamp of the block of flats.

Robert Black is the company's Chief Executive Officer and he took office in 2009 having previously worked as
Executive Director of Service at Circle Anglia for five years where he was responsible for services for 45,000 homes
across seven companies including asset management.
He is a father of two who lives in a £1million house in South East London with his wife of almost 20 years.

Barbara Matthews is the Executive Director of Financial Services and ICT, Yvonne Birch is the Executive Director
of People and Performance and Sacha Jevans is the Executive Director of Operations.
They are the four most senior members of KCTMO and according to papers seen by MailOnline, they earned
£650,000 between them last year. 

Speaking to Nina Hossain on ITV News London the company's boss Robert Black said: 'We are in complete
shock and condolences for what's happened today. Our thoughtS are with everybody that is currently affected
and still affected.'

Prime Minister Theresa May said there will be a 'proper investigation' following the Grenfell Tower fire, adding:
'If there are any lessons to be learned they will be, and action will be taken.' 
The doomed block of flats underwent a £10million refurbishment which were completed in May last year which
was overseen by Rydon Construction. 

After a day of finger-pointing and revelations residents had spent years lobbying over safety concerns, a massive
investigation has been launched and experts are predicting it could lead to a prosecution. 
Those in the firing line are the council, who own the property and send people to live there, KCTMO who are
responsible for maintaining Grefnell Tower and Rydon who installed cladding as part of their refurbishment. 

The numerous theories of what caused the deadly Grenfell Tower fire 'will be thoroughly investigated,' council
bosses said. A Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea spokesman said: 'We have heard a number of
theories about the cause of the fire at Grenfell Tower.

'We are providing emergency accommodation for those affected by today's fire at Grenfell Tower.
'Our immediate priority is to accommodate the residents of Grenfell Tower, families with young children,
the elderly and the vulnerable.

'For those unable to return to their homes in the surrounding area a rest centre has been set up at Westway
Sports Centre. 'We are still placing households and housing officers will work throughout the night to provide
assistance and support.'...'
