A massive blaze has consumed a tower block in London.

Apparently it was caused by a refridgierator near a window... the fire then caught onto the
building's external cladding which blazed, consuming most of the external structure within 20-30 minutes.
Suffice to say, with as many people passing away in such a horrific manner, and many, many more missing, along with identification of the victims as well as any sense of official investigation going on, one would assume it'd be a time to 'keep calm and carry on' in the British sense; keeping a level head, and not delve into exploitation of a situation, right?
Spotted at a protest mere days after the horrific incident, placards titled 'Socialist Workers' with slogans like 'Teresa May has blood on her hands' and 'Tories out' even though neither has anything to do with the blaze. Hard-left agitators are infiltrating protests (nothing new), but some calling for 'a day of rage' during Wednesday/every Wednesday to 'bring down the government'. Shadow Chancellor John McDonold of Labour and Jeremy Corbyn's close advisor/friend, is calling for 'a million people on the streets'.
The Prime Minister has been accused of 'a robotic response' and 'dodging questions', though it went un-reported she had visited the firefighters earlier than her rival, while also dealing with the now-activated Brexit discussions.

A man has driven a truck into a crowd as they left Finsbury Park Mosque in UK, the Imam and his worshippers then shielded the attacker from a angry crowd who were kicking him until police arrived. He had screamed he 'wanted to kill Muslims' before being detained by bystanders.
