Britain should be ashamed of its response to the Grenfell disaster, survivors and bereaved relatives have said as they prepare to mark the fifth anniversary with memorial services at Westminster Abbey and beside the ruined tower in west London.
Community leaders warned of a “great sense of anger” at the government and frustration at the lack of progress on criminal charges that could lead to those found responsible for the spread of the fire, which killed 72 people, being jailed. Police have made only one arrest despite evidence disclosed at the public inquiry of what the bereaved allege is fraudulent behaviour by companies that made combustible materials that led to deaths.
