UK - Millionaire builders saved a meagre £6,250 by fitting flammable cladding to Grenfell Tower instead of fireproof panels. A whistleblower said fire-safe panels were initially chosen – but contractors then opted for a cheaper version. In works to make Grenfell more attractive to well-heeled neighbours in Kensington, the cladding was wrapped around the tower – with lethal results. The high-rise went up like a match as the panels’ plastic core burned ferociously. A Daily Mail investigation has established that in the early stages of the refurbishment, a non-plastic type of panel named Proteus was proposed. But in the end, cheaper plastic ones named Reynobond PE were used.
What is a human life worth?
With the death toll approaching 100, it seems that a life is worth just £60 - £70!
This was a £8.7 million project.
To save a mere £6,000 by using an inferior and dangerous product [which is banned in the USA] defies human reasoning!
It takes the meaning of the word “greed” to a whole new level!
Several other buildings in London have the same dangerous cladding - which will now have to be removed and replaced with a safe product. The cost could amount to over £100 million according to some sources - all due to a "saving" of £6,000!
As the Prophet Jeremiah was inspired to write: “From the least to the greatest, their lives are ruled by greed. From prophets to priests, they are all frauds.” (Jeremiah 6:13 Holy Bible, New Living Translation )
