Originally posted by OwlHoot View PostI've heard rumours that the flat where the fire started was being used to grow cannabis, and a grow light overheated.
But even if that is true, we'll almost certainly never be told. Much easier to blame Hotpoint for a mysterious incendiary fridge.
Also, apparently the guy who lived in the flat has gone AWOL (with or without the Government's connivance).
A cheap secondhand fridge, probably not well looked after, going up, though - that sounds a lot more likely.Comment

I had suspected a meth lab rather than a cannabis farm...
I work in an office building attached to Manchester Arena, whose main entrance was in the foyer area which was bombed. We've been back in the building three weeks ago, but half of the glass fronted entrance into the foyer is boarded up (glass broken by the shrapnel), the unsmashed panes have had opaque film placed over them. My desk pretty much overlooks that area. Builders have been in the foyer, mainly securing the area (I am unable to see into it, but based on a journalist who gained access to the foyer yesterday as part of Prince Charles' visit, the flooring still bears the scars of the explosion, and apparently concrete and metalwork has holes in it from the shrapnel. We were told cameras were not allowed into the foyer as it is still being treated as a crime scene) but they have been quite noisy. The main entrance to the foyer from Victoria Station has been concealed behind scaffolding.
Seeing that, every day, is an incredibly sobering experience indeed.Taking a break from contractingComment

Owlhoot has posted things like this recently, but refuses to provide any sources or evidence. As such we have to accept that he is a liar, or is being fed lies by his controllers (EDL/BNP/DM/UKIP) and is too stupid to question the lies as they would then rock the fundamentals of his faith. Much easier to say that it's rumoured to be a drug den than to accept anything that would mean that innocent people died in a fire.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Being in London for a conference tomorrow, I took the H&C past there earlier on. I didn't know how close the block is to the track, which is elevated at that point. Very shocking to see such devastation so closeComment

If that is the case, could mod decisions be backed up by evidence?Comment
