In a question to the Prime Minister today, Labour MP and shadow housing minister Sarah Jones said there was a “stench of complacency” about the government’s response to the Grenfell Tower fire.
Jones pointed out that 19 months after the fire, 85% of towers across the country are still clad in flammable material and many council buildings do not have sprinklers.
