    “London” didn’t build these, a developer did. That developer cut a lot of corners and so now there is the very valid question of how many more were cut that we just can’t see. Structural integrity is in doubt and so these buildings cannot be deemed safe.

    Fines are just seen as a cost of business by some people so this tear-down-and-rebuild-properly consequence is the only thing that will make them finally start to play by the rules.

    Maybe be thankful that your northern town doesn’t have shysters with money signs in their eyes looking to fleece the locals eh.
