London, UK. 29th April 2018. A woman who worked in the nursery in Grenfell Tower (right) with her mother at the Construction Safety Campaign vigil outside Notting Hill Methodist Church for all those who died in the Grenfell Tower fire. After speeches from the CSC, Moyra Samuels of Justice4Grenfell and a nursery worker from the nursery in the tower there was a short silence in their memory. The speakers made clear that as more comes out about the disaster it becomes clearer that it was entirely preventable, and the the actions of the council and its TMO in specifying flammable cladding, applying it improperly, providing inadequate fire doors, and various other faults showed a culture that disregarded the safety of social housing residents, whose concerns about building safety were ignored. Grenfell shows a need for tighter building regulations and also for the proper inspection and implementation of them, rather than the relaxation that has taken place, and for the lessons of this and of previous disasters to be taken seriously and implemented rather than ignored. The Grenfell community also need to be better involved in the inquiry and there need to be prosecutions of those responsible for the disaster. Peter Marshal IMAGESLIVE
