In the usual aimed at a select few rude remark way you appear to suggest that council decisions were the only issue, they were not. The crux of the matter is the watering down of fire regs, as well as the piss poor response from K&C to the incident initially.
Where was the councils contingency plan? If you think that they are absolved due to the cladding being used in other boroughs think again.
