In a letter to Company Members, she has the audacity to say that the winding up of the TMO will be a "disappointment" to some. Take it from me,darling, the many not the few are ecstatic about the folding of the TMO. I am looking forward to paying the £ 1 required of every member of the Company on its winding up. <br /><br />The only people who will be "disappointed" by the TMO folding are those drawing fat salaries for sitting on their arses and achieving nothing comparable to their counterparts on similar salaries in the commercial sector. And lest we forget, those scroungers on the TMO Board claiming means-tested benefits and deceiving Social Security in to believing that these payments are out of pocket expenses. None of these scroungers, who are walking away with over £ 100 a month for calling themselves <br />"Directors," have their Social Security or Housing Benefit reduced. To think, I pay tax to help keep TMO Board members in a life of luxury.; the same people who oversaw the management of Grenfell Tower. This expenses deception started back in the day of Gordon Perry and was enjoyed by the good friends of the TMO who became Resident Directors. These same people, who were scrounging, saw off the many decent people who were unfortunate enough to live in a RBK&C Council flat.<br /><br />It used to be a joke that expenses allowances paid for the fags of one long standing Board member.

TUPE applies to a transfer of staff when an undertaking is transferred to a new owner. The TMO is not being transferred lock stock and barrel and if any transfers of staff under employment protection legislation are triggered it is likely to be limited to low status workers, not the top brass. As the TMO is not being taken over as a corporate body we should see a lot of people heading to the Jobcentre.

I could have told her that for free before eighty people burned to death, or choked from the inhalation of smoke. As the TMO is not fit for purpose, it follows that the people who turn up for work there, and I say turn up for work because no one works at the TMO, are not up to the job. They bullied residents and blacklisted those who were not deferential and should not be allowed to contaminate any other housing place.

There are presently no structures allowing tenants & leaseholders to share views and unite for action. To the TMO, Grenfell was just an incident. To many, it was a disaster waiting to happen, given the the mentality prevailing inside the TMO. A serious rethink of how to best manage K&C's housing stock is needed, involving ALL concerned.
