The appalling negligence and greed that resulted in 72 people dying in the Grenfell disaster is laid bare. The Matts wonder why nobody is already on remand for manslaughter. They wonder whether the system is actually broken or if it’s working as it was set up to. They wonder how people like Jacob Rees-Mogg sleep at night. They wonder how the litany of failures over Grenfell is compatible with any notion we are a genuinely progressive society. They wonder if this inquiry, like so many others before it, will actually change a thing.LISTENER OFFER: Subscribe to The New European today and get a FREE, SIGNED copy of Tony Blair's new book, On Leadership when you use this link: theneweuropean.co.uk/2mattsFurther ReadingThe Lives Of Grenfel Tower: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/ng-interactive/2018/may/14/lives-of-grenfell-tower-victims-fireDawn Foster's piece for the New York Times: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/20/opinion/london-tower-grenfell-fire.htmlTrump’s Red-Pill Podcast Tour - Helen Lewis: https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2024/09/trump-lex-fridman-podcast-tour/679702/ Hosted on Acast.
