Keir Starmer issued a heartfelt apology for the Grenfell tragedy today after a report laid out a damning picture of how victims were 'failed' by the state.
The PM said sorry on behalf of the government as he insisted during a Commons statement that the 72 deaths 'should never have happened'.
He said all those affected had been 'let down very badly before, during and in the aftermath of the tragedy',
Sir Keir told MPs that the findings made him 'bristle with anger' and vowed to ensure that such a disaster 'can never happen again'.
Almost every organisation involved in the refurbishment and management of the 24-storey, 120-apartment block in Kensington, west London, was found to shoulder some responsibility for the 'decades of failure' which contributed to the tragedy on June 14, 2017.
'Unscrupulous' manufacturers involved in the renovation of the 67-metre-tall tower a year earlier - including covering it in highly combustible cladding - were admonished for 'systematic dishonesty' and for 'misleading customers'.
Architects demonstrated a 'cavalier attitude' to fire tips and trick deposit gacor sensa138 safety regulations, while contractors and the cladding specialists did not properly concern themselves with the matter either.
Grenfell United, which represents some of the families, said Sir Martin Moore-Bick's findings made it clear their lawyers were correct to tell the inquiry that corporate bodies, such as Kingspan, Celotex and Arconic, were 'little better than crooks and killers'.
On the day the report was released:
MailOnline looks at how the disaster unfolded, minute by terrifying minute;
A series of missed opportunities to prevent the inferno have been revealed; and
All 72 victims of the blaze were remembered, seven years after their deaths.
