PEOPLE affected by the Grenfell Tower fire told Jeremy Corbyn at a memorial service yesterday that they were relying on him to help expose the truth.
The ceremony at St Paul’s Cathedral was attended by 1,500 people, including the Labour leader, shadow home secretary Diane Abbott, Prime Minister Theresa May, Communities Secretary Sajid Javid and members of the royal family.
Mr Corbyn promised mourners that he was “here to try and change things” when he met them after the hour-long service, which marked the passage of six months since the fire killed at least 71 residents (the official count) of the council tower block in North Kensington.
