This was a disaster decades in the making. We know that documents emerged from the inquiry from 2002 and 2003 warning the then Labour government that the UK could become a dumping ground for inferior construction products if it didn't adopt new, tougher European fire safety standards.

While campaigners at End Our Cladding scandal say three million people could be living in unsaleable and uninsurable flats worldwide, What's next for them?
