Ayupp fact check – This is just a fear building among people who have irregular immigration status. As reported in the guardian residents who escaped from the fire but remain, they believe, too frightened seek to medical and legal help for fear of being reported to the Home Office because of their irregular immigration status.

Seeing to this the main reason as many people are too scared to go to the hostpital even after being seriously injured in the fire accident at Grenfell.

Earliar In her Commons statement, Theresa May made it clear that no immigration checks would be carried out on survivors or relatives of the dead. “We will not use this tragic incident as a reason to carry out immigration checks on those involved,” the prime minister said. “We will make sure that all victims, irrespective of their immigration status, will be able to access the services they need, including healthcare and accommodation.”

But volunteers working at the Westway centre said they were concerned that some survivors might be discouraged from coming to the relief centre to seek help because of the police officers standing at the door. “There are police manning the cordons, and that in itself is quite intimidating

Seeing the above condition it is half true as it is just the peoples fear.
