Since Grenfell Tower went up in flames, in 2017, London has been a permanent worksite. Buildings on every street are wrapped up in scaffolding to be stripped of flammable cladding. By order of the London Fire Brigade.
It affects all buildings, with or without cladding -- so much so it comes across as a conspiracy to keep contractors busy and residents broke.
The erected scaffolding often become a perch for local birds, chiefly corvids.
(One of) The collective noun(s) for a group of (one type of) corvids is a conspiracy. When I saw the ravens perched on this particular scaffolding, this mix got its title. The fact the word 'raven' is so close to the word 'raver' solidified the choice. :)
