"Should the nation open up a few Buckingham palace rooms, for use by those who have lost their home in the fire? "
No Buckingham Palace is owned by the crown estate for the royal family. Would you like other people being forced to be put into your home?
I do however, understand where you're coming from and I believe that enough is being done to help them. |

After hurricane Sandy in New York and New Jersey, then mayor of Newark Cory Booker (now a Senator for NJ) opened his home up to people who had lost theirs. They could charge their devices and sleep on the floors. It was a really meaningful act. Just sayin'  |

I'm sure that the local authority have completed their duties and taken a part 7 homeless application and then dispersed the victims into possibly hotel accommodation while they figure out what the fuck they are going to do...15 years I have worked in social housing and this was a nightmare waiting to happen...

Exactly! There's doing the right thing, doing something that gives something of value to those in need and secondly making a public statement that people are important.
The PM popped along yesterday and didn't meet a single one of those affected so tragically. |

As if it would ever occur to Theresa May to do such a thing... |

"Corbyn has started getting those who lost their homes into places thankfully "
Corbyn talked about requisitioning houses. Should only be done in war time and if you read this article it would give you some real information, I cant put in links so Google reality check: can the government requisition homes.
Also creates a shortage driving up house prices further.Social services will also help those in more need first.

"No, simply because K&C is chock full of empty properties!
"
Are they properties that they have available to supply to people Lickety? I can imagine hundreds of vacant investment properties too.
I'd say yes to Buckingham palace - it's just a place and our people come first. It's been acquired through the toils and hardships of the many, not the privileged few. It's almost the perfect second use for it just now. |

There are whole blocks of flats empty as investment properties. K&C has also been keeping some places empty as part of their land sell off.

There are probably more local and more relevant places then Buckingham Palace,
Friends/Family yes I know a lot of them lost both friends and family but not all of them, Hotels, Homes to rent or what are for sale, Maybe the council could do a deal with estate agents to temporary accommodate them until a solution is found |

Which means in the long term they are not homeless and will not be re-housed?
We have to be very careful that the people made homeless get another house and not temporary housing.
It is a minefield where people given lodgings in others houses lose the right to be re-homed

Yeah, that's right. If you're wealthy you shouldn't be entitled to the same human rights of property ownership as 'poor' people.
Welcome to the wonderful world of Corbyn. Under his rule 'rights' would no longer be universal. Rights would be decided by secret cliques of Marxists.
It doesn't seem to matter that this shit was tried out in Russia and abandoned. Was tried out in Chian and abandoned. Was tried out in Cuba and abandoned. Is being tried out in Venezuela and has caused such economic collapse that cases of child starvation are now being reported - a country thst has massive oil reserves FFS.

Property owners, not the rich kind, have their properties compulsorily purchased below market rate. Just look at the Heygate for another London example.
