In a TikTok video by @shalkels, the lady called out the council for negligence.

She captioned her video:

"In the UK these days, it feels like you have to suffer a tragedy before anyone takes your problems seriously. I reported my leaking ceiling several times, but no one acted until it fell on my son’s head. Now everyone’s suddenly in a panic, running around like it’s new. Where was the urgency before the accident? Manchester City Council, this is beyond negligence. Families deserve safety and respect before disaster strikes."

My ceiling was leaking for almost 2 years now, you call them and when they come, they do cheap work and go. My due date was close too. I withheld their rent money for 3 months plus and told them I will report them to police and social services. They came the next day to fix everything. I was praying for the midwife to visit me and we wil take it from there.
