Exposed: Cash for logos and drive by inspections

I am sure i have not thrown the letter from my MP away and have it somewhere, the whole thing was destined to fail, so I cannot understand why anyone should be surprised if it has.

A couple of points about the article, these inspections were being carried out whilst Covid restrictions were in place because the government refused to delay the date they were supposed to be completed by, which was a mistake and also makes the claim that electricians were sat in cafes completing EICRs a rather wild claim.

Also there is not an example of an unnecessary upgrade that a landlord paid for, can we have an example? 

The government do not grasp how poor the housing stock is in UK is and completely underestimated the work required, which was more than could be completed by the electricians available. By now every rented should be completely free of any electrical issues, that was never going to happen.

I also wrote to my MP, Kwasi Kwarteng, the current Business, Energy and  Industrial Strategy Minister.  He assured me that the proposals had been looked at by all the relevant bodies and approved, and there would be no problem!
