The aristocratic councillor who was criticised for his role in the Grenfell fire has angered locals by writing about dealing with his grief using psychedelics, in a seeming plug for his own company.
Rock Feilding-Mellen, the former deputy leader of Kensington Council, has written for Newsweek about his pain over the tragedy and says becoming a local pariah meant he had to leave London and got depressed. The blaze was “a cataclysmic event that still haunts me” he writes, adding that hs own “grief and shock was compounded by the public anger directed toward me... I became a lightning rod for collective outrage and resentment.”
