BBC2 Newsnight devoted an entire programme last night to the building safety crisis – and how England’s leasehold tenure has made it worse – without a single appearance from a government minister or spokesman.
Conservative MP, Father of the House – and patron of LKP – Sir Peter Bottomley was interviewed on the programme, but he was critical of the four-year unfolding shambles that has blighted the lives of hundreds of thousands of flat owners.
