  10. "Grenfell Tower was named after Sir Francis Grenfell, a general who carried out colonial violence in Ireland, Sudan and South Africa.

That was #GrenfellTower."

The Government exempted developments of up to two floors from planning, but they are unlikely to meet safety requirements for wind-loading and disproportionate collapse. Feel free to ask me questions.
