Andy Burnham reacts to DEVASTATING Stourbridge fires as homes GUTTED: “Never seen anything like it”
Andy Burnham has visited families in Stourbridge after seeing the scenes of houses devastated by fires.
The Prime Minister outlined his plans to support those affected by the destruction, as he issued a temporary ban on the sale of disposable barbecue.
The ban comes into force today.
Speaking about the fires in Stourbridge, he said: “I’ve never seen anything like it. I mean, I dealt with wildfires in Greater Manchester, but nothing on this scale. I’ve never seen scenes like this in Britain, where you just see a whole house gutted, smouldering.
“And I met one of the families whose house had gone up in that in that way, so you can imagine how distressing that is for for them, and you feel for them and their kids, and not to go elsewhere.
“You know, it’s just unbelievably devastating for people in this in this position. So that’s why I’m here. I just wanted to show that, you know, we’re on the ground.
“We understand how difficult this is for everybody, and we will put in place the support to help people get back to where they should be as soon as possible.”

Mark Littlewood says “we now live in gaslit Britain” after it emerged the Home Office published a guide for illegal migrants on how “not to rape women”.
It is just one of the resources available in a collection titled: “Understanding behaviours and expectations in the UK: a guide for asylum seekers”.
Posters and information on rape, the age of consent and child abuse are among the guides to help asylum seekers “understand what is expected when living in the UK”.
The guidance highlights child rape is illegal “even if they look older” or if “it is allowed in another country”.
Speaking to Patrick Christys on GB News, political commentator Mark Littlewood said: “This pamphlet is extraordinary. And the reason I find it so extraordinary and disturbing is if you need that pamphlet, I don’t want you anywhere near my country.”
A Home Office spokesperson told GB News: “We expect everyone who comes to the UK to abide by our laws.
“If they do not, they will face consequences, including the refusal of their asylum claim and removal from the UK.
“Returns of failed asylum seekers have reached their highest level since 2010 under this Government.”

Tiffany Marie Brannon has urged Britain to introduce a burqa ban after Portugal did so.
Portugal has banned face-coverings in public in a measure widely seen as a “burka law” targeting Muslim women.
President António José Seguro signed into law a bill that originated with the hard right-wing Chega party.
The policy was adopted by Lisbon in July with votes from the right-wing governing coalition and the hard right, while left-wing parties voted against it.
Speaking on The Late Show Live on GB News, Tiffany Marie Brannon argued that the issue raises wider questions about integration, cultural identity and the role of religious dress in British public life, as the debate over face coverings continues to divide opinion.

All very well and good building masses of houses because of uncontrolled immigration…. but then you have lost the farmland needed to feed them. It is madness assuming that we can rely on importing a significant proportion of our food when there will be every greater demand for it from elsewhere in a population exploding world.

You can not keep building on 'more land' without destroying our existing countryside….until, there is none left for tourism (natural beauty) and food production (stop the mass migration and demand wont far outstrip supply).
Priority 1 is to prioritise jobs by necessity, rather than have a free for all. Then you wont run out of nurses etc and such under the strain of mass migration because no one wanted to coordinate the distribution of labour. That demands strict border control/mangement.
You are already flooding 1000s of homes every year with inane building policies, urban spread, with concrete and tarmac everywhere and zero water/storm/flood management.
Growth comes through investement.
Investment targets innovation.
Innovation is the latest R&D put into the 'real world'.
R&D does not exist without native education and training pathways, as opposed to asset stripping every other nation of their own human investments.
Building/adding ever more is simply a ponzi sceme (except being as a function of repairing/repurposing/maintaining the old), with the same outcomes as every other scam.
Upgrading and replacing, while keeping a steady population rate, can easily create the demand, without destroying the countryside and replacing its native occupants, to suit diabolical political endeavours.
Granted, there are some areas that are uninhabitable and unwanted natural areas.
Developing that land would be no bad thing.

Removing all illegal economic migrants forcing wage growth that then gets redistributed back into the economy rather than into the off shore bank accounts of employers.
Indexing the cost of renting a home to the minimum wage, diverting money away from foreign and domestic landlords and their off shore bank accounts and back into the economy stimulating growth.
Not voting Tory, not voting Labour.
It's a start.

In the UK we are an oldish civilisation and we've become too precious.
We've become too passive and scared of upsetting anyone at all.
I can't see that changing.
We SHOULD be using the cheapest energy – Gas and our own resources to produce high cost goods for export but we'd be accused of damaging the planet by all the Nimbys.
Even Germany isn't afraid to go back to 'dirty' energy if it needs to, but we are.
