Unison assistant general secretary Jon Richards added: “No-one should be forced to live in a home in which they feel unsafe.

“Yet thousands of people are still living and working in dangerous properties.

“Ministers accepted the findings of the independent inquiry and now need to push on with reforms to boost protection for social housing tenants and prevent a repeat of such an avoidable tragedy.

“The legacy of Grenfell has to be safer homes for everybody.

“Unsafe cladding must be removed from every tower block in the country as a priority.”
