I've said for years that unchecked capitalism is fundamentally and intrinsically evil and if further proof were needed this is "exhibit A". Those already doing damn well, you know, several nice cars and probably several properties, must not be allowed to make further profits from exploiting their wealth at the expense of societies poorest and most vulnerable! Foreign millionaires and billionaires have bought up much property in the area as "property banking", further inflating prices in the process and leaving nowhere but a few high rise blocks of council houses available to the poor of the area. Even this remaining squalid housing has further been exploited for profit by penny pinching on health and safety, fire proofing etc.

Empty properties in the area (left empty to just gain in value over time) should be seized by the government without compensation (mainly owned by Saudi and Chinese billionaires and hedge funds etc) and made into flats to rehouse the survivors of this avoidable tragedy.

Tories know the price of everything but the value of nothing... especially human life. People MUST come before profit!
