The landlords of Grenfell Tower were allowed to “choose the price tag” of tenants’ lives, a former resident has said.
Speaking at an inquiry into the fire that killed 72 people in June 2017, Emma O’Connor – who lived on the 20th floor – said she had struggled to deal with the “rude” tenant management organisation.
Ms O’Connor, who has mobility problems and walks with crutches, said the Kensington and Chelsea Tenant Management Organisation (KCTMO) would only give selective information on refurbishment work.
Residents were sent a newsletter on the works but Ms O’Connor said it was “only the bits they wanted to share with us”.
