Cladding scandal a living nightmare
Tulip Siddiq MP, Hampstead and Kilburn, writes:
So many of my constituents in Hampstead and Kilburn have faced a living nightmare as a result of the cladding scandal, which is shamefully still not resolved nearly four years on from Grenfell.
They have all had the perfect opportunity to spend time every day outside (giving them a good reason to be outside other than for exercise) but it seems barely any of these dogs know their own names. The owners don’t even know how to train them, when all it would take is a little search on Google.
And now I’m angry. Over the last two days I have received a rope burn from uncontrollable dogs who are left to tear across Hackney Marshes, completely ignoring the calls (together with laughter of) of “Benjiiiiiii Biscuitttttttttt.” After confronting one owner after I’d received a burn on my hand (he was wearing big thick gloves so as not to get the same) he told me, “We’re going to take him to classes.”
