Scrap the 18 metre rule in government now before it's too late
The 18 metre rule is where you can clad flammable cladding on a residental building which is up to 18 metres tall this is the wrong mentality and is unacceptable as this poses an increased fire risk where the safty standards for the cladding are lax.
Why is this important?
My name is Emma Louise O'Connor and I'm a disabled Grenfell tower survivor from the 20th floor, yes I got out alive but so many of my fellow neighbors and animals didn't I'm passionate about getting rid of this housing 18 metres rule abolished just because the London fire brigade can reach that height why do our lives matter so less to the people who build these high rise yes the London fire brigade have equipment to reach above but every human life should never have a price tag on, London has 33 boroughs with only 102 fire stations is this enough when another Grenfell happens, the fire in hackney with those wood effect cladding outside that was only 6 floors high, with legislation to scrap the 18 metre rule it will be a goal to make all properties a fire safe standard. The goverment and councils needs to put lives before money and aesthetics.
How it will be delivered
I plan to get as many signatures as possible and put the pressure on the government
