This one did, with the story of a Grenfell resident struggling to escape with his young daughters and heavily pregnant wife.
This is the time it would have taken, according to an expert witness at the inquiry, for all 293 residents of the tower to open their front doors, walk down the stairs and escape. The explanation is always, in the end, that the people in charge were not interested in the input, and consequently in the lives, of the residents of the tower. And where, most damningly of all, we still choose not to act and so still let crimes such as Grenfell happen, over and over, again and again.If you’d like to retain your premium access and save 20%, you can opt to pay annually at the end of the trial.

It is the story of a grieving community forsaken by our government, a community still waiting for change. But, even if you put basic humanity aside, how is it good business to create the situation we now have, where billions have to be spent correcting mistakes that should never have been made? And the ruling party still shouts for “deregulation” without giving any sign that they have learned anything from Grenfell. Show Me the Bodies" becomes tear jerking without being meretricious; the narration o
In one you hear the voices of fear, grief, courage and love; in the other those of obfuscation and prevarication, and of cynicism, greed and contempt.
