Government told to step up efforts to remove dangerous cladding in the wake of Dagenham fire
Starmer slammed for ‘not say a word about the building safety crisis since he became prime minister’
CAMPAIGNERS have told the government it must step up action to remove dangerous tower block cladding in the wake of the massive fire in Dagenham.
End our Cladding Scandal slammed Sir Keir Starmer for having “chosen to not say a word about the building safety crisis since he became prime minister, preferring to focus on building new homes rather than rescuing ordinary people from this living nightmare.”
Cabinet Office Minister Ellie Reeves admitted that removing dangerous cladding needed to be “ramped up,” but the group called this “very much an understatement.”
