Sense: St-Century London

sense: Jack Hardy / AP By Jill Lawless The Associated Press Thu., Sept. 14, 2017 LONDON A government-ordered inquiry into the London tower fire that killed at least 80 people opened Thursday with a minute of silence for the victims and with its leader acknowledging that survivors feel a great sense of anger and betrayal, according to Toronto Star. Retired judge Martin Moore-Bick said he hoped his investigation would provide a small measure of solace by discovering how such a disaster could occur in 21st-century London, and preventing it happening again. The head of a government-ordered inquiry into the London tower block fire has acknowledged that survivors feel a great sense of anger and betrayal. The June 14 blaze began in a refrigerator in an apartment at Grenfell Tower before racing through the 24-story building. Emergency safety checks have uncovered scores of other buildings across Britain with similar cladding. One aspect of the investigation will be the role of combustible aluminum cladding installed during a refurbishment to the 1970s tower block. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
