Institutionalised Violence![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Where Silence is Golden How can the five main political parties in Northern Ireland succeed in bringing peace and prosperity here when they have actively succeeded in destroying the home life, prosperity and peace of a hard-working family as they worked unceasingly over these past 30 years - and still work - to cover up a massive housing fraud? For most of these past 30 years the SDLP were in control of Down District Council. During all these years this party has covered up a shocking fraud involving building control inspectors employed by the former East Down Rural District Council who allowed building contractors in the '60s and '70s to use terralux blocks in the inner loadbearing walls of dwelling houses. Terralux blocks were never tested by the British Standards Institute yet building control inspectors employed by Down District Council criminally state that these rogue blocks did comply with those standards. These blocks are open-ended at both ends and are only a half-inch shell. |
