London:
London’s Granfel Tower – Where 72 people died in 2017 in Britain’s worst residential fire since Second World War – it is to be demolished by the UK government on Friday.
The move, which is expected to take two years, angered some of the survivors and families killed in a large scale, which destroyed the 24-storey block in the west of the British capital.
The government said in a statement, “The Grenfel Tower will be carefully taken to the ground,” a statement confirmed what groups of victims said on Thursday.
The statement stated that the work will begin after the eighth anniversary of the Blaze on June 14 and would be carefully done to ensure that the material can be included in any future monument.
The government said that there was the primary cause of security demolition.
“It remains stable due to measures to save it, but even with the installation of additional props, the building position will deteriorate over time,” the statement said.
“Engineers also recommend that it is not practical to maintain many floors of the building as part of a monument, which should always be in place.”
The fire began in a defective freezer, which spread rapidly due to excessive combustible cladding fixed on the exterior of the building.
Last year a public investigation found that 72 deaths were “all avoidable” and blamed the “systematic dishonesty” of building firms.
It also revealed long government and regulatory failures for decades.
Since interrogation and report, groups of victims have criticized the government that the fire safety recommendations have failed to implement the recommendations faster, including removing the same cladding from other buildings.
The families have also condemned the delay in bringing criminal charges against those convicted for the disaster in the investigation.
Decision to demolish the adminent groups divided into the building.
Granfel United, who survives and represents families, stated the decision on Thursday as “derogatory” and the victims were ignored in a small consultation.
However, Grenfel next to Qin stated that it was a “sensitive decision” that was informed by “safety concerns” around the structural integrity of the building’s residue of the building.
The government stressed that Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rener, who also keeps the housing brief, has offered many discussions to the community on online and in-traditions.
The government said in its statement, “It is clear from the conversation that it remains a holy site. It is also clear that there is no consensus about what should happen.”
“Being able to see the tower every day helps some people feel close to the people they are lost. For others it is a painful reminder that happened and some members of the community are having daily effects . “
