The dark heart of this catastrophe lies in this simple, depressing narrative: the state stepped back, corporate greed stepped in and innocent people died.

Today, we remember the 72 people who died entirely preventable deaths.
We stand in solidarity with their loved ones and the Grenfell community.
We echo their call for justice, accountability and lasting, meaningful change.

At the Undercover Policing Inquiry the @metpoliceuk acknowledge serious wrongdoing including the 'unnecessary reporting on political and social justice campaigns, family justice campaigns, community organisations as well as groups that were campaigning for police accountability.'
Love and solidarity with the bereaved and survivors after the preventable fire at Grenfell, still fighting for justice, accountability and change. Meaningful change and Implementation of life saving recommendations so this never happens again should not have to be fought for.
We censor this for those that don't need reminding, but urge the world not to look away or forget Grenfell.
The 14th June marks 7 years since 72 loved ones were taken from us.
Join us at 6pm at the Notting Hill Methodist Church and stand with us until Justice comes 💚
Alongside a duty of candour & equality of funding the new Govt must establish a national oversight mechanism to monitor and follow up on progress of inquiry/inquest recommendations and hold those responsible for their implementation. #nomoredeaths@INQUEST_ORG@NowHillsborough
