only through the foia was he able to discover he had been accused of sexual harassment but he was still denied notice of the specific allegations and he remained suspended. this young man was denied due process. despondent and without objections or hope, after five years of sobriety, relapsed and attempted to take his own life. he felt he let down everyone who mattered to him, including his grandmother, who was so much looking forward to seeing the first member of her family don cap and gown. whatever you accusers say you are, he told me, what people believe you are. that is the current reality. here is what it looks like. a student says he or she was sexually assaulted by another student on campus. if he or she isn't urged to keep quiet or diskinder from reporting it to local law enforcement the case goes a school administrator who will act that's judge and jury. the accused may or may not be told of the allegations before a decision is rendered. if there is a hearing, both the survivor and the accused may or may not be allowed legal recommendation whatever evidence is presented may or

-- that both the department of justice and the state department opposed the freedom of information foiaaterial on the clinton foundation information. both justice department and state fought against if the american people getting the truth. both justice and state defended the privacy of hillary rodham clinton's records over our right to know. this must stop. the deep state, obama and clinton holdovers in both justice and state department must be eliminated. even a federal judge is fed up with them ordering them to release information to the american public. rex tillerson may know the world, but i'm not so sure he understands government holdovers looking to protect the clinton dynasty. jeff sessions needs to follow his prosecutorial instincts and open a federal criminal investigation into the actions of hillary rodham clinton and impanel a grand jury immediately. this woman should not get a free pass because she lost an election. her reign was one of bold, brazen in your face pay-to-play corruption. and i'm not even talking about the hypocrisy of this so-called women's rights activists w

in a foia request we found that only 2% of council one tower blocks have sprinkler systems fitted.ckingly low number. danny cotton led the service at grunfeld tower. what about retrofitting? i clearly support retrofitting. where you can save one life then it is worth doing. it can't be optional or a nice to have this is something that must be in place for the future to protect people. recommendations to protect people. recommendations to fit sprinklers have been made before. six people were killed in a fire here at 2009. the recommendation for the coroner in the national inquest was just simply ignored and absolutely nothing happened. it is very clear that we have a system of regulation over the fire safety of tower blocks that is systemically simply not working. the enquiry needs to get to the bottom of why that is and what has gone wrong. this is a sprinkler test. it is triggered when heat directly underneath reaches a certain temperature. a study by the national fire chiefs council says that where sprinklers are fitted they extinguish or control 99% of fires. so why aren't they
