A damning report on a deadly London high-rise fire says decades of failures by government, regulators and industry turned Grenfell Tower into a “death trap” where 72 people lost their lives in 2017.

Updated: 17 minutes agoFILE - In this Wednesday, June 14, 2017 file photo, smoke rises from Grenfell Tower in London.

Prime Minister Keir Starmer apologized on behalf of the British state, saying the tragedy “should never have happened” and promising to act on the report’s recommendations. “We paid the price for systematic dishonesty, institutional indifference and neglect,” said Elcock, a survivor who lost her uncle in the fire.

The report was highly critical of companies that made the cladding. It said they engaged in “systematic dishonesty,” manipulating safety tests and misrepresenting the results to claim the material was safe. It concluded the failures multiplied because bodies in charge of enforcing building standards were weak, the local authority was uninterested and the “complacent” U.K. government — led in the seven years before the fire by the Conservative Party — ignored safety warnings because of a commitment to deregulation.An initial report published in 2019 criticized the fire department for initially telling residents to stay put and await rescue.
