    Still sinking in. To be elected MP for where I grew up with 82% of the vote and 40,000 votes is so humbling. I won't let you down.

    Powerful testimony here from Grenfell survivors and families. "We are praying for the best. It is killing us".

  6. Should have happened weeks ago. RBKC totally failed, lost all trust and confidence of the community.

    And what steps are being taken to identify as close as possible the numbers of survivors and the number of people who were inside Grenfell?

    Questions we need answers to: who is a suspect, who is under investigation, for what charges and what evidence is being collected by police?

    3 weeks on Grenfell survivors and families need answers. Pre-selected questions doesn't seem like transparency to me

    Fire alarms didn't go off in Grenfell, now contractor under investigation for huge failings. Absolutely disgraceful

    To the people ringing my office abusing my staff: you will be reported to police. You are also preventing them from helping my constituents.

    I am worried that the chair of the Grenfell inquiry has talked of narrow terms of reference. He needs to be fearless

    Lammy: Grenfell inquiry chair should be "fearless"

    If I don't sound quite like I am meant to sound or if I don't use the language the political class use then so be it
