    The idea that the #GrenfellTower tragedy was preventable is shattering. The neglect here is just inhuman. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/theresa-mays-chief-staff-sat-10620357.amp …pic.twitter.com/jGx9M0JKqO

        It’s not neglect, Edward. That, at least, may have been forgivable. It’s wanton, naked & unbridled profiteering at the cost of human lives.

        In other countries buildings would not be insured if they didn't pass fire inspections. This is what deregulation does.
