BUILDERS FLAUNTING GOVERNMENT RULES

Builders endangering health


Dear Dame

Our parks are full of police telling people not to sit together on benches. 
Contrast the difference with my small block of flats. 

A building company is breaking every government guideline by starting a major programme of non-essential building works on a neighbour's flat.
In the process, it is totally ignoring social distancing rules by allowing workers to come in and out of the building.
So far, one resident has contracted the virus but thankfully recovered.
As one of the three residents, I am fearful of the implications for my own health and safety.
I am a seventy-seven year old awaiting the go-ahead for a cancer operation and the fitting of a pacemaker.

I have asked the Leader of the Council, her Environmental Health team, and my elected representatives to intervene but to no avail (though I have to praise Cllr Sof McVeigh for doing all she can to help).

It is quite wrong that the statutory bodies have failed to intervene thus leaving us owners to pay exorbitant legal fees to serve a Cease and Desist Notice to protect ourselves.

I hope you, dear Dame, and readers agree that the Council is in serious dereliction of its duty to residents by not intervening and halting this blatant breach of the rules.

Kind Regards

A very frightened resident

  2. A casual stroll around the Royal Borough will show that the lock down rules are sliding away quickly as Londoners take matters into their own hands. The Council is complicit in this civil disobedience. Dizzy is marching to her own tune. Our 71 year old complainer needs to embrace the new reality and good luck with his pacemaker and cancer op. He should avoid the Imperial Group hospitals (St Marys, Hammersmith, Charring Cross) which have taken the bulk of Corvid 19 cases and are therefore dangerous places
