The first firefighter to walk into Grenfell Tower has spoken of his ongoing heartbreak for the 72 lost lives - and of his anger towards a government “dragging its heels” as families seek justice.
David Badillo is not just a firefighter at nearby North Kensington Fire Station, he has been a member of the community surrounding the Grenfell area for more than 30 years.
He boxed at the club attached to the tower and, as a teen, was a lifeguard at Kensington Leisure Centre, a stone’s throw from Grenfell.
