London Grenfell Tower Fire

The cladding specialist on Grenfell refurbishment delegated fire safety checks on the combustible insulation to “the person who had made it and was selling it”.

A commercial manager working on the Grenfell Tower refurbishment was promised a “very nice meal” by the cladding supplier after securing a deal to use the flammable product on the tower, the inquiry into the blaze has heard.

Felicity Buchan MP voted with the government on Monday to reject a Labour amendment which would have seen all of the recommendations put into law.
