Police are under pressure to accelerate the criminal investigation into the Grenfell Tower fire after an excoriating report found that companies operated with “systematic dishonesty” and that all 72 deaths were avoidable.
A seven-year public inquiry culminated on Wednesday in a report that laid bare “decades of failure” by central government and egregious behaviour by a string of multimillion-dollar firms involved in the tower’s disastrous refurbishment.
