The housing crisis I understand -- and live in a city with somewhat similar pricing and problems - but the blocks they're evacuating are ones, as I understand it, that have other issues besides the cladding, like inadequate fire doors.
Well, fix the fire doors? Put people up in hotels for a short period until the fire doors/alarms that sort of thing is fixed, because the people living in blocks with just the cladding as an issue are apparently being allowed to stay.
Also, don't wake people up at 2am and rush them out. That seems just ridiculous. There's nothing that would've been different had they not waited until morning, or put up notices and said in 24 hours, please vacate for X amount of time; if you cannot find temporary housing with a friend or relative, see the on-site rep for assistance. They could've put guards in the buildings for a day while people got stuff together. It just seems like a terrible way to have done things.
