house that had been divided into four flats.
A Nigerian family of six Internet con artists and full time benefit cheats
lived on the first floor...all six tragically perished in the fire.
A group of seven Islamic welfare cheats, all illegally in the country, lived
on the second floor...they too, all perished in the fire.
Six Albanian, gang banger, ex-cons - all claiming political asylum and
living off the state for free, occupied the 3rd floor...they too, died.
But the middle aged Muhindi couple from Kenya who lived on the top floor
miraculously survived the fire.
The Equal Opportunities Commission, Amnesty International, Rights activists,
black community leaders and the British Islamic Council were all furious at
the apparent racial inequality of the situation. Why was just the Muhindi
couple from Kenya saved? It was monstrous they claimed, and showed that
systemic 'racism' still existed in all areas of public service - questions
were raised in the House of Commons, the popular media picked up the story
and within hours it was national and indeed international news.
Boris Johnson, Mayor of London, when questioned stated calmly that it would
be unwise to jump to conclusions until the Police and Fire Service had
completed their report. He closed by stating that he expected their initial
assessment to be available within the next 36 hours – so perhaps it would be
best to let the experts gather the evidence and report back before he
commented any further.
The baying Press pack subsequently reported the interview in such way as to
intimate that the Mayor was indifferent to suffering and was out of touch
with the feelings of the whole East London community!
A large motorcade of representatives from all five groups, together with the
Home Secretary drove to the area, having demanded a meeting with the local
chief fire officer. They made sure that a large pack of popular Press and TV
had been briefed on the visit and so the motorcade was met by a huge gaggle
of journalists, TV interviewers and cameras.
On camera, they loudly demanded to know why the Africans, Black Muslims and
Albanians all died in the fire and only the Muhindi couple from Kenya lived.
One bemused chief fire officer quietly replied,
"Because they were both at work."
"Because they were both at work."
