Following the publication of a damning report on the Grenfell Tower fire, which killed 72 people, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and former Prime Ministers Theresa May and Rishi Sunak issued apologies on behalf of the British state. The report blamed decades of government failure, systematic dishonesty by companies, and inadequate responses from local and national authorities. Starmer emphasized the need for a culture change to prevent future tragedies, acknowledging that the state had repeatedly failed the victims. Survivors and bereaved families have long demanded justice, with ongoing investigations into individuals and organizations responsible.
