But if you go to Grenfell Tower, if you can pull yourselves from your Tennis Games and your perfect dinners . If you go there while the black skeleton of that living tower . Still stands unreal in the air, a warning for similar towers to fear, . You will breathe the Air Thick with grief . With women spontaneously weeping . And children wandering around stunned . And men secretly wiping a tear from the eye . And people unbelieving staring at this sinister form in the sky . You will see the trees with their leaves green and clean and will inhale the incense meant . To cleanse the air of unhappiness . You will see banks of flowers . And White Paper walls sobbing with words . And candles burning for the blessing of the dead you will see the true meaning of community . Food shared and stories told and volunteers everywhere you will breathe the air of incinerators . Mixed with the essence of flower. If you want to see how the people die, come see Grenfell Tower. You have ten seconds and there is one more thing you want to say. {lift one more thing you want to say.

Faisal� s here tomorrow. Were going to leave you with the names of the 72 men, Women And Children who lost their lives as a result of the grenfell fire. Goodnight. Live from london. This is Bbc News scathing criticism in the final report on the Grenfell Tower fire more than seven years ago a chain of failures by government, the authorities and dishonest companies. 72 people lost their lives 18 of them were children in one of britains worst ever residentialfires. Now their families want justice. We are traumatised. We are empty inside now. Seven years. Justice delayed is justjustice denied. Also tonight, a 14 year old boy is charged with the murder of 80 year old Bim Kohli Who was attacked on sunday while out walking his dog. The Grenfell Tower has stood shrouded for 7 years now since the devastating fire broke out just after midnight on June 14th 2017. The flames were so fierce it took firefighters more than 2a hours to get the blaze under control. 72 people died dozens more were injured. Since then survivors and victims families have endured a long wait to understand what todays report calls a Path To Disaster which stretched back decades. Today they finally got answers. It says the people killed in the fire were badly failed at almost every level by successive governments, companies and the authorities through incompetence, dishonesty and greed. All of the deaths were avoidable. Now the families of those who died wantjustice. Ourfirst Report Tonight is from Tom Symonds a warning it includes images of Grenfell Tower on fire. There have been seven years of mornings over grenfell with no definitive answers to the question why did this happen . Today was different. But this is how it all began. A fridge caught fire. The owner called 999, then got out, then turned on his camera. 31 minutes later, flames reached the roof, then unstoppable. Buildings are designed to prevent fires spreading. As these pictures show, this one totally failed. Nick burton was among the few rescued, guided to safety. I dont actually remember coming out into the light. I dont remember, like, being handed over. I dont remember when i took my first real breath. I know that i thought i was going to die and melt at some stage. He coughs. In the tower. They call that the grenfell cough. But he lost his wife, pilar, after the fire. She was the last of its 72 victims. And this was the final conclusion of the chairman of the seven year Public Inquiry. The simple truth is that the deaths that occurred were all avoidable, and those who lived in the tower were badly failed over a number of years and in a number of different ways, by those who were responsible for ensuring the safety of the building and its occupants. The largest group representing victims of the fire have always said exactly that. Human life was never a priority, and we lost friends, neighbours and Loved Ones in the most horrific way through greed, corruption, incompetence and negligence. If youre looking for the one Person Or Company that might have been to blame for the deaths of 72 people at grenfell, you wont find it in this massive seven volume report, because this was a failure of the system at all levels across the board, and it started at the top with Governments Labour and conservative. They were warned. Fires involving flammable cladding over 18 years. Six died at Lakanal House in south london, but ministers and civil servants didnt change the regulations governing building materials. In 2010, David Cameron and nick Cleggs Government wanted a bonfire of regulations to help businesses. In the run up to grenfell, the inquiry says matters of safety were ignored, delayed or disregarded. In 2016, the ageing west London Block was refurbished with new cladding to make it look good next to a newly constructed school. But look at the Design Sheets of Aluminium And Plastic shaped into square boxes. A multinational, arconic, made the sheets. It didnt come up with the design, but it knew the Box Shape was extremely dangerous, according to the inquiry. It had commissioned tests and found the boxes collected molten plastic. Yet this was deliberately concealed from the construction market, and arconic must take responsibility for the use of cladding at grenfell, the report says. A host of contractors were involved in the work itself, including an architect, studio e, a cladding installer, harley facades, and a project manager, rydon. They were incompetent, the inquiry found, and passed the buck when it came to safety. That night, firefighters had to improvise a plan to evacuate grenfell when the fire got out of control. No one, the inquiry said, appeared to have thought they needed to be trained. The London Fire brigade said today thats changed and hundreds of lives have been saved. In the commons, this was the Prime Ministers response. I want to start with an apology on behalf of the british state to each and every one of you, and indeed to all of the families affected by this tragedy. It should never have happened. The Prime Minister visited grenfell two weeks ago without any publicity, leaving a wreath. Today, he said it was imperative there was a swift police investigation. And he went further. So i can tell the House Today that this government will write to all companies found by the inquiry to be part of these horrific failings, as the first step to stopping them being awarded government contracts. And we will, of course, support the metropolitan police and the prosecutors as they complete their investigations. No charges are expected until The End of 2026 at the earliest, nearly ten years after grenfell. Tom symonds, Bbc News. The families of those who died finally know what led to the disaster. And now they want justice. What they dont know is whether anyone will be held to account and face criminal prosecution. Seven years on, the families are still trying to come to terms with what happened. Our special correspondent, lucy manning, has spent the day with some of them. Sakina afrasehabi. Fatemeh afrasiabi. 72 names, and one of them, khadija khalloufi, is theirs. Khadija khalloufi. Their daughter, sister and aunt. Rabeya begum. Khadija was a joyful person. My sister is always smiling. She always have a positive attitude. How does it feel to hear that your sister and the other deaths were avoidable . When you are hearing that, everything was avoidable, you hurt also because of their dishonesty. You have anger inside you. You say, what are they waiting for, to make charges, to make criminal prosecution manslaughter, to give us justice . And this is what we want. 1,700 pages that amplify injustice, grief and fury. We are traumatised. We are empty inside now. Seven years. Justice delayed is justjustice denied. And we were robbed of our right for thisjustice. Its thought 52 year old khadija went to check on another family as she tried to escape. She never made it out of the building. We want to speak about khadija as a good memory. But we speak all the time, khadija was burnt, khadija died in that circumstances, so we are hurting ourself. Hello, were in Grenfell Tower, yes. What flat are you in . 183. Were trying to get out. Marcio and Andreia Gomes and their two children were trapped on the 21st floor. This was their 999 call. They survived, but andreia was seven months pregnant, and Baby Logan was stillborn. We knew exactly what our truth was. Its great to see it now in black and white, written down, but you can see there from the fraudulence, the greed, the dishonesty that was going on. Does it give you the answers about how and why your little baby died . No, i dont think it gives me the answers of how logan died, or how anybody died. I mean, we can see there, it could have been all avoidable. Its good to hear, which i already knew, that logan died peacefully. Sorry. Its ok. Yeah, and i knew that from the doctors reports, but theres something about hearing it in the inquiry as well. But it could have been all avoided. Grenfell could have been avoided in its entirety, so im glad he wrote that down. Grenfell was notjust a building, but a community. The babies, children, parents and grandparents died here, the report is clear, due to dishonesty, disregard and incompetence. Lucy manning, Bbc News. A chain of failures across government and the private sector led to Grenfell Tower becoming a death trap. Today speaking in the house of commons, the Prime Minister spoke directly to bereaved families and survivors, and apologised on behalf of the british state. 0ur Political CorrespondentHelen Catt is in westminster. A significant moment for the Prime Minister. It a significant moment for the Prime Minister. ,. ,. Minister. It was, and Keir Starmer did a capple minister. It was, and Keir Starmer did a capple of minister. It was, and Keir Starmer did a couple of things minister. It was, and Keir Starmer did a couple of things really minister. It was, and Keir Starmer did a couple of things really in did a couple of things really in this speech, an apology and a promise. So it is always a significant moment when the Prime Minister stands in parliament and makes an apology on behalf of the state. And its clear sir Keir Starmer made it clear that that is what he was doing. He told the victims, the families of the victims that they had been let down so badly he said that it never should have happened and you heard their apology a little bit earlier. And he recognised what they said was their year wait forjustice. He talked a bit more about making that a private visit to grenfell. He said he felt a sense of anger that has risen throughout the building. His apology was also reiterated, by Rishi Sent who sent his deepest apologies to the families and victims, the state let you down and must never do so again. Which is really a reminder that this spanned successive governments. It spanned several levels of government from national to local, you know, this was a failing of the system in effect. Coming back to that promise that Keir Starmer made, he said that he would bring about a generational shift the memory of grenfell, we will change our country. Ending on a promise that things will change. Hagar promise that things will change. How challen. In promise that things will change. How challenging will it be to keep that promise . I challenging will it be to keep that romise . ~ , promise . I think it will be. This isnt the first promise . I think it will be. This isnt the first time promise . I think it will be. This isnt the first time in promise . I think it will be. This isnt the first time in recent isnt the first time in recent months that we have seen something coming before parliament in this way. Coming into the public consciousness again in this way which was a failure of the state and a failure over successive governments, so, for example, if you think about the Post Office Horizon scandal, where Sub Postmasters were wrongly convicted over faulty it system, if you think about the infected blood scandal, these are all things which have happened across a number of years come across different governments, it tends to erode trust in our public institutions and how they function. So there is a
