We have a pre pay smart meter.The only reason we changed to it is for the simplicity of buying credit using an app on my mobile phone. It also makes it easier to see just how much credit is left as the gas meter is outside and the electric meter is in a cupboard that you have to bend down to look at.With the smart meter its on the wall in kitchen. -

Considering this type of cladding has been used around the world with a few fires on tall buildings which led to it being banned you have to think why the Government never took action over here. Same type of cladding here (Polyethylene covered in aluminium) http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/dubai/12076792/Dubai-skyscraper-fire-new-years-eve-2015-live.html

BOTH had EXACTLY the same fire rating. I get pi**ed off when the regulations are there for everyone to see.
-
And they never will. The panels are British standard & pass Building regulations and also have a fire spread class 0 rating. It probably has a spread rating of 1 but meets class 0 because it meets British standard part 7 for spread of flame & part 6 fire propergation. A class 1 fire spread is 165mm in 10 mins but take into account the shear mass of these panels on a high rise tower block and the immense heat & flame spread produced would drastically reduce this time......Which it did.

It happens now Yep,the first never went to well did it. http://www.itv.com/news/2017-06-16/pm-labelled-coward-as-she-leaves-meeting-with-grenfell-tower-fire-victims/

The bloke who owns Singhsbury's has changed it to Morrisinghs ......And Morrisons don't mind one bit. A spokesman for Morrisons said the supermarket "did not mind". "Mr Nagra and his customers obviously have good taste so we wish him well," he added.

Am I right in saying the Asda GP Walk in Centre will reopen after a refurb ?

I have been digging a little bit more as it seems Rydon are having the finger pointed at them from every angle possible when this should not be the case. The facts are the cladding used was the cheaper verison of two that could have been installed. The original planning application shows the more expensive cladding using Celotex FR5000 was to be used,this was changed to the cheaper version that uses a polyethylene (PE) core instead of celotex FR5000 in a revised planning application in 2014 and approved. Why was this approved ? Because both Celotex FR5000 & the cheaper version using Polyethylene BOTH have the same fire rating class 0 So...Who is to blame for this? To me it's the Tory & Labour Governments who have on countless occasions over the past have not only been told of the dangers of this type of cladding but have seen the many tower block fires around the world directly linked to this cladding(France,Australia etc)

It can tell how many showers you have had, when you are cooking, when you are in and out of the home Seriously.....What a load of tosh -
Panels are made up of a polyethylene core which has a B2 fire rating,the same as wood. The original planning application in 2012 states the use of Zinc rainscreen cladding with a celotex FR 5000 core (High resistance to fire) a new application was made in Sept 2014 the material had changed to Aluminium composite material and a polyethylene and passed. The panels because they are encased in an aluminium skin pass current UK building regs https://twitter.com/xtophercook/status/875109568669523968

This article here... http://www.insidehousing.co.uk/revealed-external-panels-probable-cause-of-huge-tower-block-fire-spread/7019613.article# is pretty shocking. I wonder how long it will take before these panels that have a B2 fire rating which is the same as wood are removed from other tower blocks. This has nothing to do with using poor quality materials as these panels pass current building regulations

And !!!! I'd rather support Mr Corbyn than that useless incompetent weak excuse for a woman.

Death toll is expected to pass 100. This cladding has a polyethylene core which has a B2 fire rating......The same as wood

One of my e-mails to Highways was about the unnecessary need for the traffic lights on Newmarket Roundabout. I was told the reason why they could not be removed was because of the close proximity of the pedestrian crossing on Edgar Street. I argued back that the pedestrian crossing was there way before the traffic lights were I received no reply.. These lights need at the very least to be made part time.Why do people who do not live in Hereford of ever go through Hereford not listen to those who do?

This article deserves to be read as it looks a carbon copy for what could happen to our city when the developers and planners get together for the Edgar Street Grid. Looks like a carbon copy lol ... Are you for real.
