London, UK. 19th July 2017. Zita Holbourne of the PCS and BARAC waits to speak at the protest by Grenfell Tower survivors and supporters at the council meeting at Kensington Town Hall to give the firm message to councillors 'Resign Now!'. A couple of hundred protesters attended the council meeting, though some survivors were kept outside until the residents representative refused to speak until they were allowed in and there were many empty seats, while hundreds more watched the proceedings on a giant screen outside, erupting with fury at the complacency and paternalism of some councillors and calling for the council to resign as they had shown themselves unable to deal with the disaster, which feel came about as a result of the councils failure to take reasonable care of the safety of people in social housing. Earlier there was a noisy protest outside, with two sets of speeches a short distance apart as some housing campaign groups involved with Grenfell had been refused permission to speak by the main Justice for Grenfell campaign on political grounds.
