It's a political failure. Obviously people should be helping the survivors but at the same time politicians and the media need to be asking serious questions into how this happened, if the residents complaints to the local council were ignored and so on. This is a scandal, it cannot be dismissed as just an unfortunate event that couldn't have been avoided.

This is social housing provided by the state. They provided relatively poor people housing built covered in flammable material with, it seems, inadequate fire safety systems. How is that not a political issue?

And to want to stand up to the people asking those questions?
