Of course Corbyn meant it. We need to whatever is needed to ensure that these properties can be available for the survivors of Grenfell Tower.

And since Labour is not in power, the people in a position to do it are the Tories, and the hope is that they could be induced to act to open up someficient property to meet that need.

It seems to have worked in a very limited way though the end of July is far to long to wait. What appears to have happened if the government have done a deal with a developer that means it can unload these flats in advance, which is very convenient. And I am sure that the developer will be getting very generous terms.
