        FFS it's not her fault, get a grip! Their management association and the council were to blame - labour council at the time of upgrade!

        Wrong. Kensington and Chelsea has never been a labour council.

        First of many 4 ministers in the frame, the council, the architects, the management, the contractors should be under criminal investigation.

        These appalling failings do require a witch hunt if necessary and exemplary punishments. If that means sending ministers to gaol so be it.

        when will Nicholas Paget-Brown follow? Or does he think this sword-falling gesture is sufficient?
