The former head of the London Fire Brigade has paid tribute to the bravery of firefighters and families at the Grenfell Tower fire nearly a decade ago, as he backed the proposed memorial on the site.
Labour peer Lord Roe of West Wickham, who was the incident commander at Grenfell Tower fire, praised the courage he had seen during the disaster in June 2017 and since. After arriving at the blaze he ended the “stay put” order for residents.
