"Ageing is beautiful"
"Never ask a woman her age"
It is often said and heard.
Why? What's wrong with that?
Who did invent this idea?
With your each birthday, you get one more year older and a long with that, one more year gracious, mature, understanding, stronger, and wiser. Isn't it something you should be looking forward to?
Then why to feel offended on being asked your age?
"Be the self who gracefully celebrates the first string of grey hair"

Recent guest reviews
Stayed for one night, room was very comfortable(room 14in main hotel), it overlloked the garden -very quiet on a Thusday evening but I imagine it would be noisy at the weekend. Staff very pleasant and helpful. Our meal in the restaurant was spoilt by the long wait from ordering to its arrival at our table(approx an hour), the food was very good however.
Our wine glasses were covered in water marks and mine had lipstick mark on rim. Ordered fillet steak which had a lot of fat and gristle on it. Waiter came and asked if our meal was ok and was informed about steak. He said he would inform the chef but no one else came to see us before we left. The Manor is a lovely setting but I won't be returning for a meal again.
Stayed here with elderly mum to visit local family. Staff were extremely friendly, food was very good value for money, hot and good portions. Rooms clean and comfy. In good location one end of town. Had day out at Weymouth and visited Tintinhull gardens near by.
Friendly and very helpful staff from the start, the restaurant offered very good food at very reasonable prices for an evening meal. For breakfast you were spoilt for choice and it was well prepared and tasty. On the downside the exterior needs a bit of TLC, and the decor is a little dated but this had no effect on our stay and is easily outweighed by the ambience created by the friendly and helpful staff. My wife and I will definitely visit again.
I am sorry to say that this is probably the worst place I've stayed since reviewing things on Tripadvisor. Poor management and poor judgement by the management has made a bad situation worse. First things first - the car park: the hotel boasts 42 rooms, but the car park has only 36 places? Two are reserved for disabled, so if the place is over 80% full, you have a fight to get a free parking space. God knows how they cope when the function room is in use. The room we got was number 43 in 'The Stables' annex. While the room itself was overall clean and tidy, it is not big. As an example, there was a bedside cabinet only on one side of the bed. The other side of the bed had space only for a wardrobe. Looking at the fire escape diagram, it was also the smallest in that block. It was clear that this room had seen better days – no net curtains (even though it was a ground floor room), the window didn't lock, the bathroom panel looked like it had been removed regularly, and no toilet roll holder (unless you call the top of the cistern a toilet roll holder). I guess the reason there was no toilet roll holder was because it would have jammed into you if sitting on the toilet, or would have got wet from water from the bath or sink if positioned anywhere else. Conclusion? The bathroom is too small. The sound insulation is not that great - noises from the rooms and creaky floorboards in the corridors above comes straight through. Not good when you are trying to sleep. However, it does have tea/coffee facilities, a hair drier and a TV. The remote needs its batteries replacing or replacing altogether. We eventually took to the old school of pressing buttons on the TV to change channel. Breakfast facilities are the only thing about which I can speak positively. The staff in the dining area were cheerful and attentive. The food was good, the usual spread – cereal, toast, pastries, yoghurts fruit and fruit juices, cooked breakfast (including eggs benedict!). You get the idea. Internet access was poor also. It was free access, so was probably being used by everyone in the area. Therefore, nothing was going in or out. It was easier to use my own 3G service. However, my main issue relates to how the management consider the importance of their customers. In the morning, we awoke to cold water. No hot water at all. We had a quick wash using boiled water from the kettle and went down to breakfast. When checking out, there was no interest in how the stay was. When we mentioned a lack of hot water, the receptionist advised that the boiler had failed and had to be restarted. It was only noticed when she arrived that morning, and it was only the second time that had happened, she admitted. When we said we'd have thought that deserved a discount, she mentioned that they don't offer discounts, only if the customer requested one. She claimed the reason why it was not offered, because they would have had to have offered it to everyone staying. We waited at reception while she eventually talked herself into giving us money off the bill. From a customer service perspective, this taints the whole Old English Inns brand to being managed in the same way; fear of the consequences of a problem, rather than resolving the issue to the benefit of the customer. I have no choice but to assume the other hotels in the chain are managed similarly, and would therefore recommend you steer clear of them. Moral of the story - stay away. I've stayed in better B&Bs for better value - and that's with the discounted price. While the staff do their best to provide a decent friendly service, if the management is poor, then the whole impression is poor.
Stayed for two nights at The Manor when attending a wedding nearby. When we arrived to check-in the car park was full as there was a wedding at the Manor. We managed to squeeze in eventually and the receptionist was friendly and told us that we would hear noise from the wedding that evening, which is fair enough. The music was so loud our bed was vibrating, but at midnight the music stopped and we had a good nights sleep. This hotel could be great, but for us a few things let it down. The bathroom was large but with industrial Lino on the floor. We had two sinks that didn't match, and an over bath shower. The shower curtain was splattered with hair dye from a previous guest. I needed to run around in the shower to get wet as it wasn't that great. It seemed to run at frozen or hells fire in terms of temperature. On our second morning, the boiler had broken so not hot water, but the staff did fix this promptly. The staff were friendly & helpful and the breakfast adequate but nothing special. Free parking if you can get a space is great too. We would come back - but the hotel does need some TLC .
I stayed here for 3 weeks for work in June. I will stay from the start... this is not a 4* hotel. If you thought of it as a 2.5* hotel it would be about right. Whilst I stayed here during the summer the temperature reached 32 degrees, the rooms do not have air conditioning, the windows open barely more than a crack and they had run out of fans... needless to say I hardly slept for several days. The cleaners also do not replace your shampoo and you have to ask for it at reception. The breakfast was perfectly adequate and what you would expect. The staff were friendly throughout. So overall if you thought you were booking a 2.5/3* hotel, this would be perfectly adequate. For a 4* hotel (the basis upon which I booked it), it is not up to standard and could do with a major refurbishment.
I thought this hotel was lovely. Staff were nice, room was clean and tidy. Only one thing, it was a bit warm in the hotel and our room which was right at the top. The food was good although I did know that some guests didnt like the breakfast. This person was quite an important guest The rooms were priced good with breakfast included. Would go back again
Managed to get a good late deal via booking.com for a one night stay. Single room was perfectly adequate, clean and comfortable. Friendly staff, particularly the waitresses at Breakfast. Huge choice of food for breakfast. Full English was very tasty and hot. Overall, a very pleasant stay.
Staying her for one week on business and staff are so friendly and helpful. Special mention about Victoria and Louise, nothing too much trouble . I had one small issue one night mentioned it to Victoria and she sorted the problem immediately and with no fuss . The breakfast is varied and cooked perfectly. Evening meals a must . Excellent chef. I can highly recommend this hotel with lovely pleasant garden . Plenty of free parking and few minutes stroll to main shopping centre .

Press Release: Sarah Reed Inquest Verdict
Sarah Reed Campaign for Justice
Justice for Sarah Reed begins with health and prison services being held accountable for deaths in custody.
Sarah Reed, a young black woman with a history of mental illness, detained on remand in a single occupancy cell in the healthcare unit of Holloway Women's Prison, was found dead on 11th January 2016. The prison has since been closed. Sarah's illness was precipitated by the premature death of her six-month-old daughter in 2003, when she and her partner were dispatched from a children's hospice with their deceased baby wrapped in a quilt to find an undertaker. Sarah's mental health deteriorated as a consequence of this trauma. She was also the victim of a vicious assault by a Metropolitan Police Officer, PC James Kiddie in 2012. He was subsequently charged, convicted and dismissed from the police force. This incident further exacerbated Sarah's condition, as did her arrest for an alleged assault whilst defending herself against a sexual attacker in a secure mental health unit.
The inquest into Sarah Reed's sudden death was held at City of London Coroners Court. It started on Tuesday, 4th July and concluded on Thursday, 20th July 2017. The jury's verdict found that The Inner London Crown Court's processes of obtaining psychiatric medical reports were not sufficiently timely. The jury found the delay "particularly difficult to understand". If a timely Fitness to Plead Assessment had been performed as requested by the court, then Sarah Reed would not have suffered a mental health crisis in HMP Holloway and would have received appropriate treatment within a mental health hospital. The jury concluded this delay significantly contributed to her subsequent death. The jury also found that the Assessment, Care in Custody and Teamwork (ACCT) review delays and failures were contributory factors to Sarah's death, in particular the reduction of observations despite her worsening psychotic condition. They found the reduction of Sarah's anti-psychotic medication to have been appropriate initially, but strongly criticised the subsequent failure to consider safer alternatives. The jury also found that HMP Holloway staff failed to respond to a request from Dr Timms to review Sarah's anti-psychotic medication in a timely manner. These failures left Sarah in a distressed state without appropriate treatment. Finally, the jury considered HMP Holloway's inexplicable decision to cancel Sarah's visits with family and friends especially detrimental.
Sarah's legal team was exceptional, however the search for the truth is often frustrated by a lack of resources for families in terms of legal and evidential expertise. We believe the inquest evidence presented, outlining the ways in which Sarah's behaviour was assessed and managed, the withdrawing of her medication, and the punishments and segregation to which she was subjected are highly disturbing. It paints a distressing picture of the inhumane way a Black woman with mental illness was treated in prison. Sarah's case, like the cases of Dean Saunders and David 'Rocky' Bennett before her, have highlighted systemic failings of care for people with mental illness and institutional racism within prisons.
The Sarah Reed Campaign for Justice has been supported by a number of individuals, groups and organisations, in particular the social movement Blaksox, Women In Prison, Black Activists Rising Against Cuts (BARAC) UK, and Gender, Education and Enterprise Development for Africa (GEEDA). As far as the Campaign and Sarah's family are concerned, the facts relating to Sarah's death remain largely unexplained.
We make the following urgent demands:
1. The Government should commit to ensuring nobody with severe mental illness should be placed in a police or prison cells.
2. Urgent modernisation and reform of the Coroners' inquest courts processes to give greater equity and justice to victims' relatives.
3. That Coroners' inquests recommendations need to be mandatory and enforced by law.
4. In the event a prisoner is identified as having a mental health crisis requiring transfer to hospital, that this takes place within two (2) hours and treated as an emergency, as is the case with a physical medical crisis.
5. That no prisoner identified as mentally ill and/or on suicide watch is screened off as punishment, isolating them from human contact and cutting off visibility when they most need it.
This inquest has left serious questions unanswered:
1. How did Sarah, a woman in poor physical health commit suicide by strangling herself and maintain the pressure past the point of unconsciousness whilst lying face up on a bed, within a ten-minute window?
2. Why were key reports such as Fitness to Plead and important psychiatric assessment reports delayed, causing significant harm to Sarah?
3. Why did Holloway Prison psychiatrist, Dr Darren Bull determine that Sarah was not psychotic, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary?
4. Why was there a substantive and critical delay in transferring Sarah from Holloway to hospital once a decision was made that she was in need of urgent medical treatment?
Donna McKoy, Chair of the Sarah Reed Campaign for Justice said, "Sarah would be alive today had the Coroners' inquest recommendations been considered mandatory and been backed by the force of law."
Kate Paradine, CEO of Women in Prison asked, "'What was she even doing in prison in the first place?' This is the question we at the charity Women in Prison hear most often whenever a woman dies in prison. In 2016, 22 women died in prison with 12 of these taking their own lives. Tragically, their stories are remarkably similar - histories of trauma, abuse, mental ill health and self-harm; often in prison on remand or sentenced for non-violent crimes (84% of all prison sentences for women) – mostly for theft like shoplifting. …The inquest into [Sarah's] death tells the story of a completely broken system."
Patricia Lamour MBE of GEEDA pointed out that "Sarah Reed was remanded in custody for the sole purpose of a psychiatric report to assess her fitness to plea. The inordinate delay in processing these reports was a material factor in the circumstances surrounding Sarah's death. No woman, no mother, in fact nobody suffering from mental illness should be detained in either a prison or a police cell."
Sarah Reed Campaign member Claudia Manchanda said, "I sat through the inquest and heard several examples of what appeared to be evidence of perjury and poor practice by a range of statutory agencies. I think that the evidence given to this inquest should be the basis of charges of perjury, internal disciplinary measures and dismissals, where appropriate."
Zita Holbourne, Sarah Reed Campaign Trade Union liaison officer and Chair of BARAC UK, said that "the gross injustices Sarah experienced, leading to her unexpected death have been of great concern to the trade union movement and, in recognition of the fact that Sarah died because she was black, a woman and disabled due to her mental ill-health, four emergency motions have been carried at the TUC Black Workers, Women & Disabled Workers conferences. The evidence heard at the inquest leaves more questions unanswered. Sarah's family deserves to know the truth."
Deborah Coles, Director of INQUEST stated: "Sarah Reed was an extremely vulnerable black woman with a long history of mental ill health. …. The state's responsibility for deaths goes beyond the prison walls and extends to failures in mental health and substance abuse provision, sentencing policies and the failure to implement the Corston report and invest in alternatives to custody."
Viv Ahmun of Blaksox called on the Home Secretary, Amber Rudd, to publish the long overdue report into Black deaths in custody saying, "It's high time the Home Secretary addressed the deepening anxieties of victims and the wider public about the growing number of controversial black deaths in custody. Sarah Reed is just one of many and it is vital that lessons are learned and urgent reform implemented as a matter of priority."
Lee Jasper said, "The horrific treatment of Sarah Reed whilst on remand in HMP Holloway constitutes cruel and unusual punishment of a young black woman suffering mental ill health. The jury's findings identified critical failures by prison and mental health staff that substantively contributed towards the death of Sarah Reed."

Grenfell Tower Press Release by leading BME organisations, lawyers & residents
EMBARGO: Monday, 3rd July 2017 00.01 AM
BMELAWYERS4GRENFELL, an umbrella action group incorporating leading BME Organisations and residents challenge the appointment Sir Martin Moore-Bick as the Chair of the Grenfell Fire Inquiry; the failure to consult survivors and residents on the appointment, the terms of reference, and the members of the advisory panel.
BMELAWYERS4GRENFELL has already highlighted, on numerous occasions, the invidious nature and consequences of the failures to respond to survivors' and residents' concerns, to acknowledge their concerns, to answer their questions and to consult with them. The government cannot repeatedly acknowledge its failures in its handling of this wholly avoidably tragedy but continue to act in a wholly cavalier manner toward survivors and residents. Having previously insisted that Grenfell Tower residents will be given a say over the direction of the investigation, the Prime Minister has ridden roughshod over their concerns in her appointment of Sir Martin Moore-Bick.
BMELAWYERS4GRENFELL do not question Sir Martin Moore-Bick's vast experience but do question the appropriateness of his appointment given his commercial background and publicised decision-making. Furthermore, his public statements following the announcement of his appointment caused considerable dismay in the community. Residents and survivors of the Grenfell Tower fire had already made it clear that they are unhappy with its narrow remit and want a broader investigation into the causes and aftermath of the disaster that killed at least 80 people. However, Sir Martin Moore-Bick, has already commenced his role with extreme caution, stating, inter alia:
"I've been asked to undertake this inquiry on the basis that it would be pretty well limited to the problems surrounding the start of the fire and its rapid development, in order to make recommendations as to how this sort of thing can be prevented in the future,"
"I would hope to be able to answer basic factual questions such as: how did the fire start, how did it spread, how was it able to engulf the whole of the building at such speed? And also questions such as what internal precautions there were, what steps were available for alerting residents and for allowing them to escape."
BMELAWYERS4GRENFELL urge the Prime Minister to withdraw this appointment given its lack of credibility and appoint a Chair with a professional history and experience of appreciating the needs of social housing in this diverse community all too often ignored by the wealthiest Borough in the country.
Ghino Parker, Resident and community representative said:
The tragedy that has unfolded in our community is unprecedented. This is only the beginning and we must insure that we support those who seek a voice within our systems of justice and equally we keep a dialogue on behalf of those who have lost their lives and are unable to speak. The continued failure by the local authorities in the aftermath is unacceptable. The community around Grenfell and those around our community are mobilising. There is an awaking and need for answers that must be met with respect and taken seriously not with tokenism. The people who I have met through various BME law associations have had a direct impact on the daily issues that some survivors have faced, for that, as a community we are grateful. We must keep working together with those who can keep on shining a light on the mechanics of change.
Zita Holbourne, National Chair of BARAC UK said:
What survivors and families of the victims of the Grenfell Tower have been through is unimaginable. They deserve dignity and respect going forward and to be acknowledged and have their articulate voices heard. In contrast to the community response, the official response has been woefully inadequate and the reality that we have heard first hand from survivors and the families of those who died, at the Houses of Parliament a few days ago is very different from what we are being told by Government is occurring.
Ismet Rawat, President Association of Muslim Lawyers said:
It is not just the survivors, residents and their families and supporters but the community at large, who are very clear that this tragedy is not just about the limited 'factual' issues that Sir Martin Moore-Bick referred to (and may well have been imposed upon him) but that it raises extremely important questions about our society as a whole and the manner in which those who hold power deal with discrimination and deprivation. The Macpherson Inquiry was ultimately about more than the tragic murder of a young black man and, similarly, this inquiry will be about more than the events of one fateful night.
The Grenfell community cannot begin to process its huge trauma or even countenance healing when it is being repeatedly lied to, misrepresented, and treated abhorrently. There must be accountability. Any inquiry must have legitimacy and must be honest, open and accountable. The survivors and residents do not demand the right to choose the Inquiry Chair. They were promised input and were and remain entitled to it. It is not just sufficient that justice is done, but that it is SEEN to be done. Similarly, justice delayed is justice denied therefore expediency is also key. There cannot be another 4 years before a report as there was with the Lakanal fire.
Peter Herbert, Chair, Society of Black Lawyers said:
This government is well aware that the Grenfell community has lost confidence in the white male middle class model but continues to impose this in appointing a Chair who has little or no personal or professional insight into the cultural, religious, and ethnic diversity represented by the Grenfell community and, indeed, has been overturned upon appeal for failing to have that insight in a specific case centered on social housing.
Ranjit Sond, President, Society of Asian Lawyers said:
It must be noted that the Stephen Lawrence Inquiry and the Scarman Report only managed to build the confidence of the local community by conducting a detailed consultation sitting as they did with a diverse panel of advisers who helped them develop the trust of the victims and survivors. The appointment of a diverse panel of experts that understands not only the surrounding technical matters, but the need of the local community is essential to the success of this Inquiry.
If the terms of reference remain as they are, BMELAWERS4GRENFELL will consider commencing Judicial Review proceedings. The Inquiry must be capable of guaranteeing answers that honour the memory of all those who have lost their lives and those that remain.

Note to editors 2:
BMELAWYERS4GRENFELL were instrumental in arranging the Grenfell Tower meeting called by Shadow Home Secretary, Diane Abbott M.P. 29 June 2017. The meeting was also addressed by the Shadow Justice Minister, Richard Burgon MP, Emma Dent Coad MP and David Lammy M.P. Over 150 survivors, residents, family members and supporters denounced the abject failure of the Government and the local authority to provide answers, their repeated misinformation regarding rehousing of residents and the alleged support provided, and discussed a list of demands that remain unmet. These were later reflected in the letter written by the Leader of the Opposition, Jeremy Corbyn, to the Prime Minister, Theresa May.
The demands survivors and families reiterated at the meeting at the House of Commons 29 June 2017 are as follows:
1. The TMO to be dissolved and responsibility moved to the LB Southwark or other competent London Borough;
2. The Government Coordinated response team to be available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and accessible in person, by telephone and email so that people are not greeted by answerphone messages and that interpretation services and emergency contacts are accessible;
3. That family liaison officers reach out to the survivors and residents to provide full assistance and to publicise the contact details of family liaison officers involved currently;
4. That HMG to offer full counselling services to all survivors, family members of survivors, volunteers, eye witnesses and local residents / community and mental health support provided for those who require it;
5. To direct that survivors are not identified by wristbands but by photographic ID;
6. To provide a comprehensive undertaking not to house people outside the Borough or in temporary housing for longer than three months, keeping moves to an absolute minimum;
7. Charitable donations be collected by one central charity with a full record of money provided and access to an interim payment to all survivors and families of the victims being provided as was done following the Manchester Arena bombing;
8. The Home Secretary & Lord Chief Justice to state immediately why the Grenfell community was not consulted prior to the appointment of the retired Court of Appeal Judge;
9. The Home Secretary to explain what consultation is to occur before the terms of Reference are finalised and to invite the Judge to attend a meeting on 19th July of BME Lawyers4 Grenfell to be held at the BBC to explain to survivors how they can influence the scope of the Inquiry;
10. The Home Secretary to confirm in writing within 28 days that undocumented survivors are given full UK citizenship forthwith; (No assurance in writing to date);
11. To provide regular updates directly to a Grenfell website that is accessible to survivors, local residents and their families;
12. To provide a team of appropriately diverse social workers who can liaise with children, the elderly and the disabled;
13. To give assurances in writing that anyone provided with negligent advice by the RBKC must not be disadvantaged in their right to social housing in the future;
14. The release the total numbers of survivors as opposed to the numbers believed to be dead and missing within 14 days;
15. A guarantee that the Inquiry Chair will adopt a wide term of reference that goes beyond the narrow one he has outlined in his recent statement;
16. To guarantee the interim findings of the Inquiry will be made public within four months of the Inquiry commencing;
17. To ensure a properly diverse expert panel to sit alongside the Inquiry Judge on Housing needs, Fire and Safety Construction, with suitable experience of Equality, Diversity & Social Welfare considerations;
18. To provide all written communications, whether in print or online in a broad range of languages responding to the needs of the diverse group of people concerned. In addition, interpretation services to be made available, for example through the use of Language Line;
19. Assurances to be given that no interim relief provided to survivors and families will be subject to deductions from future compensation or any benefits they are entitled to, with the same principles being applied to Grenfell survivors and families of those who died as that which was applied to victims and families of the Manchester arena bombing where Government made a rule change which ensured that survivors and families of victims would not see any benefits cut if they received financial support from the We Love Manchester emergency fund. At the very least, there must be parity of treatment.

Grenfell Tower: Press Release by Leading Black Race Equality Orgs
Leading Black and minority organisations express their sorrow, shock, horror and outrage at the appalling tragedy of the wholly unnecessary loss of life and suffering at Grenfell Tower.
The organisations are deeply concerned with the failure of the Prime Minister to meet residents or victims and the position of the former Housing Minister, Gavin Barwell that is now untenable. We also call for the urgent assessment of all 4,000 tower blocks in the UK that are in a similar state of design and age as a matter of urgency.
The bravery of fire-fighters and local residents is to be applauded and stands in stark contrast to the failure of leadership in central and local Government who are more concerned with damage limitation with their lawyers.
We urgently make the following demands: -
1. An apology by the Prime Minister, whose Government bears the full responsibility of failing to act since 2013 and the failure to implement the Coroner's report of 2013 on the Lakanal fire in the London Borough of Southwark;
2. The resignation of the Prime Minister's Chief of Staff, Gavin Barwell, the former Minister of Housing who on 16th October 2016, said, "we have not set out any formal plans to review the buildings regulations as a whole";
3. The immediate fire safety assessment of all 4,000 similar tower blocks in the UK;
4. An urgent corporate manslaughter investigation by the Metropolitan Police into Kensington and Chelsea Management Organisation (KCTMO); Harley Facades, Rydon and all other contractors that bear responsibility for the renovation work;
5. An Independent Public Inquiry called by the Prime Minister, to be chaired by a High Court Judge and address how poverty, austerity, cuts, local private property interests and unlawful discrimination affected the delivery of housing services and safety of people in Grenfell Tower;
6. The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, one of the UK's wealthiest, be directed to rehouse all the affected families and provide emergency disaster relief to those directly affected, including trauma counselling.
7. There be immediate special measures imposed on KCTMO who have had two enforcement notices served on them in recent years, following a fire in a 14 storey block of 78 flats they own in October 2015;
8. The implementation of the Hillsborough Rule (proposed by Andy Burnham, Mayor of Manchester), where families receive legal aid to be represented after such a tragedy in any Inquest or Public Inquiry.
This tragedy appears to be the perfect storm of poor housing, cuts in local authority spending and a complete failure by the Government to implement any of the Coroners recommendations in the tragic case of the blaze in Southwark that resulted in the loss of six lives in 2011. The history of fires in UK tower blocks is nothing new with Ronan Point in May 1968, where four died; Lakanal House, July 2009 where six people died; Shirley Towers, April 2010, where two people died, with other major fires of tower blocks, as recently as last December 2016 in Dubai.
Questions must be asked as to;
1. Why the Government failed to implement the Housing safety review recommended in 2013;
2. Why the former Housing Minister, Gavin Barwell failed again to commence the fire safety review in October 2016;
3. Why RBKC failed to heed the warnings issued by Grenfell Action Group which highlighted the dangers as recently as November 2016 in reviewing the 10.8 million refurbishments to Grenfell Tower;
4. Why the RBKC failed to coordinate the volunteers and charities in the aftermath of the tragedy and solely concentrated on re-housing given their significant resources;
5. Why a disproportionate number of children and babies were allocated the top floors together with BME tenants;
6. Why Coroners Courts do not have the power to bring expedited Judicial Review proceedings to enforce compliance with their recommendations that are not carried out by Government or local authorities and others within 12 months.
These and many other questions need to be answered. Public inquiries often take years to be set up and hear evidence during which time the truth can be obscured and disappear, whilst memories can fade.
Successive Housing Ministers from 2011 onwards failed to prioritise the needs of the poor and needy who occupy social housing. The responsibility for this tragedy lies at the heart of Government in Downing Street, due to the neglect and austerity of successive Housing Ministers.
Lee Jasper, former Race Equality adviser to the Mayor of London commented,
"Whilst we grieve for the families and those missing and injured, we urge the Metropolitan Police to urgently arrest those responsible at the Kensington and Chelsea Management Organisation (KCTMO) and the relevant contractors for possible manslaughter charges and to seize all available evidence before it is destroyed. This is not only a continuing danger to the public but a crime scene. We remember all too well that when the victims are poor, black and minority people, money is saved, corners cut and investigations fail, as with the Deptford Fire."
Zita Holbourne, National Chair of BARAC UK stated,
"My thoughts are with all the tenants impacted, particularly those who have lost loved ones, those who have been injured and those who have lost their homes. The effects of austerity and cuts have impacted adversely on the poorest communities, disproportionately black and minority ethnic, with those local authorities officially declared deprived facing the deepest cuts. There also needs to be proper investment in affordable and social housing."
D Peter Herbert O.B.E., Chair of the SBL, and former Vice Chair of the Metropolitan Police Authority commented,
"Our thoughts and prayers are for the victims, and their families of this dreadful tragedy which is down not to terrorism but to the negligence and lack of care by those in power and authority. It is not the families, friends or relatives of Government Ministers who are forced to live in such dangerous property that is generally only found in social housing or the private rented sector. It is remarkable that the Prime Minister hides away from the public in Notting Hill, as she did during the election in a private visit. The SBL & AML will be conducting a series of meetings in the community and interviews with witnesses in the coming months to gather first hand testimony of what occurred".
Rita Patel commented,
"There are horrific accounts of whole families that have perished, with children separated and lost, parents and the elderly who have tragically disappeared with the old and the vulnerable the least likely to survive. We know that this type of property is simply not tolerated in the private sector, so why should it be acceptable in public housing? This Government has increasingly run down, privatised and neglected public housing over the years with the consequences visited on the poorest and most vulnerable in our society."
Ismet Rahat stated,
"We are proud of our Islamic youth and our Mosques who have demonstrated their community support. There has been an abandonment of safety standards for the poor who are forced to occupy the least popular highest floors of properties all over the UK. These are disproportionally families with young children, minorities and those suffering with a disability. No private sector tenant in a buy to let property would tolerate such safety standards, the lack of functioning fire alarms and safety systems. All faith communities have shown the type of commitment not shown by RBKC. No offer of housing has come from any member of the Royal family despite their abundance of accommodation in London."

BARAC UK: Use Your Vote for Race Equality on June 8th, Vote Labour
BARAC was established as an anti-cuts organisation, 7 years ago this month, to respond to and campaign against the disproportionate impact of cuts on black workers, communities and service users. Over the past 7 years we have campaigned not just against cuts but the deepening race discrimination and injustice faced by black communities.
Throughout these seven years, Jeremy Corbyn, leader of the Labour Party and John McDonnell, Shadow Chancellor have supported our campaigns, joined our rallies and events and brought out campaigns and concerns to Parliament, chairing a range of parliamentary meetings, discussions and campaign launches, including our Equality in Our Lifetime campaign marking the 50th anniversary of the march on Washington, Jobs and Justice, Olympic Fair Play and our 2025 vision for race equality parliamentary launch to mention just a few.
We have therefore seen first hand their commitment to race equality.
Many of the concerns that BARAC has been campaigning on, the adverse and disproportionate impact of cuts to local authorities, the NHS , public sector job cuts and pay freeze, zero hour contracts, university tuition fees, deepening poverty, insitutional racism, discrimination in the labour market and in service provision, inadequate social housing, disproportionate stop and search are issues that Jeremy, John and the Labour Party say they will address if elected.
You can read here a statement from Jeremy Corbyn, responding to a race equality manifesto published by 20 race equality orgs including BARAC UK here: https://www.raceequality2017.org.uk/jeremy-corbyn/
If you haven't already, we would encourage you to read the Labour Party manifesto here:
For an alternative to reading, here's a spoken word video setting out reasons to vote and to vote Labour, If All the People Voted for the Many Not The Few:
We've also produced some Vote Labour BARAC stickers.
Every vote counts on the day and failure to vote / low turnout can assign us to another 4 years of misery, more cuts, deeper racism and injustice and poverty so please speak with family, friends and networks to encourage them to use their vote on June 8th.
"If you elect me as your Prime Minister I promise you our Government will tear down the barriers that restrict fair access to jobs, housing, homes and health care.

Campaign groups launch a manifesto for a racism-free post-Brexit Britain
A new coalition of 20 race equality campaign groups has launched a manifesto which includes a set of demands they want the next government to adopt.
The 'Manifesto for Race Equality in Britain' includes policy proposals to tackle racial inequalities in the jobs market, housing, and criminal justice.
Proposals include:
The online manifesto has just gone live: www.raceequality2017.org
The website also features new analysis of the power of the black and ethnic minority (BME) vote in this snap general election.
The study found that:
The report concludes that Labour could seriously reduce the Conservatives majority by holding onto their share of BME voters. The Tories could seal a comprehensive victory by winning over more BME citizens, and the Lib Dems need to increase their appeal in diverse seats to have any hope of winning them back.
See the Power of the Black Vote 2017 report here: https://goo.gl/kAZMrA
The Race Equality 2017 coalition was coordinated by Operation Black Vote. The full list of organisations is in Notes to Editors.
Simon Woolley, Director of Operation Black Vote, said:
"Britain is at a crossroads on Brexit, immigration, and British identity. How these issues play out in this snap election will determine the country's direction for a generation. The key question is to what extent will black and minority ethnic communities (BME) be involved in this debate?
"Persistent race inequalities in employment, education, housing and the criminal justice system has meant and lack of social mobility for BME children growing up to be adults is nothing short of a scandal. Many do succeed despite the barriers but too many fail to have their potential recognised much less fulfilled. That is why we are calling for a government-wide race equality strategy to root out racial inequality wherever it lurks in the system.
Dr Omar Khan, Director of the Runnymede Trust, said:
"Given the persistence and extent of racial inequalities we need the next government to have an actual plan to reduce racial inequalities, not just warm words. With post-Brexit Britain raising existential questions about who we are, we also need the next government to affirm that race equality is a core British value and that minorities won't see their rights and protections weakened"

The 'Manifesto for Race Equality in Britain' includes policy proposals to tackle racial inequalities in the jobs market, housing, and criminal justice.
Proposals include:
- A comprehensive government-wide race equality strategy;
- Brexit negotiations must be "race equality-proofed" to safeguard rights protecting citizens against discrimination;
- A new law prohibiting online hate which forces social media firms to take action.
The online manifesto has just gone live: www.raceequality2017.org
The website also features new analysis of the power of the black and ethnic minority (BME) vote in this snap general election.
The study found that:
- Seven of the top ten swing seats have BME electorates significantly larger than the 2015 majority;
- 45 of the top 50 swing seats, 45 have BME electorates larger than the 2015 majority;
- 96 of the top 200 marginal seats have BME electorates large enough to make the difference.
The report concludes that Labour could seriously reduce the Conservatives majority by holding onto their share of BME voters. The Tories could seal a comprehensive victory by winning over more BME citizens, and the Lib Dems need to increase their appeal in diverse seats to have any hope of winning them back.

Viv Ahmun, from Blaksox, said:
"Unemployment of 30% amongst 16-24 year old black people in comparison to just 13% amongst white people of the same age is a shocking disparity that feeds into and drives the poverty of opportunity that underpins rises in violence and mental ill health. The next government must do more to increase opportunities for employment and business development within BAME communities."
Zita Holbourne, National Chair, Black Activists Rising Against Cuts (BARAC) UK and National Vice President, Public and Commercial Services Union, said:
"Austerity combined with institutional racism is impacting disproportionately on BAME workers. Our manifesto seeks to address the adverse impacts of cuts on BAME workers from redundancies in the public sector having a double impact on BAME women to zero hour contracts meaning young BAME workers have no job security, whilst addressing the structural systems of discrimination that already existed before cuts, in appraisal, promotion, progression and recruitment. Race Equality should be a right, not a privilege."
Patrick Vernon OBE, trustee of Bernie Grant Trust and founder of 100 Great Black Britons, said:
"This is the 30th anniversary of Black History Month and the election of the late Bernie Grant, Diane Abbott, Paul Boateng and Keith Vaz as MPs. Tackling racial inequalities still have not been fully achieved. Our manifesto is a demand for our civil and economics rights to be taken seriously and delivered to all political parties."
Lee Jasper, Blacksox sponsor, said:
"Black and Asian people in the UK today look with trepidation towards an uncertain future in a Brexit Britain. Racial inequality in the UK is now wider than any other time in our history. Hate crime is rising and black unemployment is at record levels. This no time abandon hope and refuse to vote. It's time for UK Civil Rights movement."

Announcement from Lee Jasper: Standing down as co-chair of BARAC UK
Lee Jasper has now stood down as Co-Chair of BARAC UK and we thank him for his work since BARAC was founded in 2010.
After having the distinct honour of Co-Founding and Co-Chairing BARAC UK with my sister Zita Holbourne, I feel it time for me to stand down after seven years at the helm.
I would like to pay tribute to the BARAC executive, whose work has been exemplary in seeking to demonstrate the links between austerity, the growth of racism, and the disproportionate impact on Black and Asian and ethnic minority communities. We have fought and won some amazing battles together and I am proud of our many achievements.
It is then, with great sadness, I announce that I have stood down as Co-Chair.
I am taking, a much-needed break, both on line in relation to social media and in real life. After 35 years on the front line of our struggle for equality I feel, it's now time to move on.
I am confident in BARAC's future with Zita remaining as Chair, and with the support of the national executive and ask that you continue to support, and work with BARAC, and I look forward to watching our continued success.
In relation to the public advocacy, I am no longer able to do case work support, or representation on behalf of individuals.
I hope now to move on to undertake a PhD.
For those seeking to contact me, the only means to do so, going forward is via email at email@example.com
Yours sincerely,
Lee Jasper

MINNEAPOLIS, MN -- (Marketwired) -- 05/23/14 -- Soul and Vibe Interactive Inc. (OTCQB: SOUL), "The Company," a video, mobile, and computer games publisher, announced today that Timeless Gems was featured on NewsWatch as part of its popular segment, AppWatch. The program aired on the History Channel and the Bio Channel on Thursday, May 22, 2014.
In Timeless Gems, your favorite storybooks come to life in an innovative "match-3" puzzler that's wrapped in a board game. Timeless Gems creates an innovative play experience by combining highly popular "match-3" game play with board game elements. Since its worldwide launch in the first quarter of this year, Timeless Gems has surpassed 370,000 cumulative downloads across the Facebook, Android, and Apple's iOS platforms and maintains consumable and monetization conversion rates that are above the industry average.
During the program, Andrew Tropeano, the NewsWatch host:
- Called Timeless Gems, "our latest addiction" [at NewsWatch].
- Praised Timeless Gems as unique when compared to other highly popular match-3 puzzle games such as Candy Crush and Bejeweled due to the combination of match-3 play mechanics with board game elements. Timeless Gems is a game within a game.
- Identified Timeless Gems as a match-3 game with a story. The game launched with two classic storybooks, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Downloadable expansion books, such as the newly released Dracula, and other forthcoming books, directly appeal to a diverse gaming audience.
- Noted Timeless Gems' consumable Power Ups and highlighted the unique impact they have on game play.
Please visit the official Timeless Gems Facebook app page to watch the NewsWatch video segment: www.facebook.com/timelessgemsgame.
"We are very grateful to Andrew and the whole NewsWatch team for featuring Timeless Gems on their program," said Soul and Vibe's CEO and President Peter Anthony Chiodo. "The Timeless Gems segment represented our game very well and we are honored to have been selected. Timeless Gems' NewsWatch appearance will introduce the game to new players who might not have heard about the game. The growth of Timeless Gems is exciting. It is a game that demonstrates mass-market appeal. The game has surpassed 370,000 downloads across its Facebook, Apple iOS, and Android versions. Our game play presentation is fresh and we are lucky to have such an amazing user base that finishes one puzzle 'book' and then jumps right into the next one. We're gearing up to reveal our second expansion 'book,' and it is one of my personal favorites."
