I wonder if everyone whose home burns down is now entitled to £5,500 ?
Perhaps the Insurance companies will now deduct that sum from any insurance claim.
Some interesting comments from a BBC report ;
Quote:
In a separate development, Panorama has discovered that firefighters put out the first fire at Grenfell Tower.
They were called to a fridge fire, and within minutes told residents the fire was out in the flat.
The crew was leaving the building when firefighters outside spotted flames rising up the side of the building.
The Fire Brigades Union say firefighters were left facing an unprecedented fire, and officers broke their own safety protocol to rescue people.
