Garcinia Scam: It is not like me to be caught in a \u2018scam\u2019 which to you and I is exactly that but which may be legal. Garcinia is a company which supplies weight control supplements. If you accept a free sample and do not return the free sample within 14 days they can legally send you further product until you succeed in getting your bank to stop further withdrawals from your account. It appears that this is stated on their website. I an innocent in that regard was hit for \u20ac400. There is a procedure for trying to get this back. The problem here is that they seem to have a way of blocking emails such as mine stating that it was only my intention to avail of the free sample. I want to send it back but there is no address given on their website, but a box number. I have been trying to find an address to begin the process of trying to get my \u20ac400 back.<\/p>\n

The Glenfell Tower disaster: How soft touch regulation of fire standards led to the incineration of many of the inhabitants of Grenfell Tower flats and how in Ireland the implementation of the bye laws was changed in a similar way which led to only about 10% of applications being fully scrutinised, which may have led to the possibility of a similar disaster happening in Ireland. The issues include the privatisation of functions which were scrupulously enforced by the public sector and the dissemination of staff numbers in local and central government, the full effects of these are yet to be fully realised with the public interest the main sufferers.<\/p>\n
