the survivors and bereaved families from the grenfell tower disaster say they're still waiting for justice, after a damning report into the deaths of 72 people. at the end, seven years have passed, we still have no justice and we have to fight again. i don't how many years it is going to take. the deputy prime minister and housing secretary — angela rayner tells the bbc the work to fix unsafe buildings must speed up. it is completely unacceptable that the remediation is taking as long as it is. an armed man is shot dead by police near the israeli consulate

in german city of munich. and the olympic athlete rebecca cheptegei has died — days after being doused in petrol and set on fire. we return to grand tower, where today, the day after the publication of the second and final part of the public inquiry into the tragic events that unfolded here seven years ago, june 2017. published its findings. people of course have been poring over the findings. those survivors and relatives of the people who died as a result say they are still waiting for justice. result say they are still waiting forjustice. it set out a catalogue of failures, the six year public inquiry�*s report laid the blame on

successive governments, on what it's called systematic dishonesty from cladding companies. and what it decided that it might describe as the indifference of the companies. they may not have come to terms with their loss, but they have, finally, got some answers. we didn't have the right treatment. we were discriminated. to some, it gives answers and to some it doesn't do anything except it's put that extra nail in the coffin, as they say. at the end, seven years have passed and we still have - no justice and we have to fight again. - i don't know how manyl years it's going to take. the memory of that night still dominates this community. residents who were victims of, at best, incompetence, at worst, calculated dishonesty and greed, the report said. lives that didn't need to be lost. the simple truth is that the deaths that occurred were all avoidable,

and those who lived in the tower were badly failed over a number of years and in a number of different ways by those who were responsible for ensuring the safety of the building and its occupants. the prime minister visited grenfell tower two weeks ago. he's vowed to take swift action. there will be a debate on the floor of this house. we will respond in full to the inquiry�*s recommendations within six months and we will update parliament annually on our progress against every commitment that we make. but there are some things i can say right now. there are still buildings today with unsafe cladding, and the speed at which this is being addressed is far, far too slow.

the fire here was a result of dishonest companies, failures by successive governments, and a lack of strategy by the fire service. the council, which was responsible for the tower, has apologised for failing to protect residents before the fire and to look after them in the aftermath. has enough changed? no, i don't think enough has changed. i think we need to continue. so for an easy reply, i could say, well, all the recommendations in the first part of the report, you know, we've put them in, we've changed our resilience team, we've changed the way we organise ourselves, we've changed how we behave with our residents. we are held to account by our residents. but is that enough if you've lost a child, is that enough? no, i don't think so. police say they need until the end of next year to finish their investigation into what happened here, which means no criminal prosecutions will be brought until the end of 2026 at the earliest. but for families who lost loved ones here, they've waited six years to see in black and white who was to blame

for their deaths. their wait for justice continues. ellie price, bbc news, at grenfell tower. much political reaction to this report. speaking to the bbc earlier today, the deputy prime minister and housing executive angela rayner. she said it must speed up. the report is pretty harrowing when you see the level of failure. it is not one failure in one place. it is everybody who had a responsibility to protect people and keep them safe in their homes completely and catastrophically failed them and that is why the prime minister apologised yesterday. quite rightly, as was said, more needs to be done. after phase one there has been significant changes, new regulators and new laws that have been passed for, when i took up my position eight, nine weeks ago, i was absolutely astonished at how many buildings

still are waiting to start remediation work. and that's why i want to come forward this autumn with remediation acceleration plans to make sure we can do everything we can to get this cladding off the buildings and to hold those responsible. and the phase two report, we saw yesterday, it gives 58 gives 58 recommendations that we will have to go through now. i've been speaking to our chief political correspondent henry zeffman about the political fallout. what is really interesting about the government's response to this is that they are waiting six months, as is often the case with these very meaty extensive inquiries, to respond in full to all the recommendations of the report. but it is also clear from what keir starmer was saying in the house of commons yesterday and what angela rayner has said this morning to the bbc, that there are some areas where the government feels it needs to move faster.

and one of those, as you heard emphasised there, is remediation, the term given to basically taking cladding off the vast number, it appears, of residences where people still are living surrounded by unsafe cladding. and what is so striking about what angela rayner is saying is that the government still doesn't seem to have a complete idea of how many buildings that affects. she said she still believes, actually, that new laws are required. seven years after this disaster new laws may be required to compel the owners of those buildings to take the measures the government wants them to take. i think what is going to be very interesting is to see whether this government can find ways to speed it up and to make those laws bite in a way that previous governments since 2017 have tried and — in angela rayner�*s view — failed to do so. that is a really interesting point, henry.

how is the government going to make that work? words are one thing, actions are another. how will it speed up the process? i think talking to people here around grenfell, clearly, and we have heard this many times, they are clearly frustrated at the speed at which things move. i don't think we know the answer to that, is the truth. the government says that they will bring forward we are pretty close to the autumn, i guess that means a sort of october, november time when politicians return from party conferences. angela rayner�*s department, she is deputy prime minister but also housing secretary, has an awful lot on its plate and there is broader context for this which is that at the heart of this new government's agenda for the economy is planning reform designed to mean that 1.5 million more homes get built over the next five years. there is the new homes side of the agenda, but simultaneously this government is expressing severe concern about lots of existing homes.

they might not be safe and trying to find ways to get the construction industry on the one hand to build lots of new homes and then on the other hand, the housing sector more generally, to deal with the existing homes. it is a delicate thing the government will have to try to pull off but, as you say, a lot of people frustrated by the speed of progress. a lot of people, by the way, and the commit recognise this yesterday, frustrated by how long, even after yesterday's report, criminal prosecutions potentially might still take. so i think in that sort of broader environment of frustration at the speed at which things are moving, i think the onus falls on the government to demonstrate that the things which are in its control, they are able to move faster on. with me now is former labour mp for kensington. emma dent, now an independent councillor. thank you for joining us. you were elected as the mp of this area just four

days before the grenville fire. in that time you have built up strong relationships with many of the families of grand fowl. whether survivors, bereaved, from the local community. i want to get your reaction now that you have had a chance to look into yesterday's report in more detail. i look into yesterday's report in more detail.— look into yesterday's report in more detail. i focused to start with, i more detail. i focused to start with. i spent— more detail. i focused to start with, i spent three _ more detail. i focused to start with, i spent three hours - with, i spent three hours reading on the actions of the managing agents responsible for the properties. working with the properties. working with the council, and how that all works. 0bviously, on fire safety. i knew a lot of what had happened at that time but i was absolutely shocked when i read some of the details. i was really shaken to find out that people had deliberately avoided reports from the fire authorities, from the local fire brigade. enforcement notices had been shelved. they were completely ignoring a

whole raft of security issues in the tower itself. as they had with other towers in my ward at the time. which, you know, has resulted in further fires. i was really shocked reading what those officers had said and how they had avoided bringing these issues to the board of the management organisation at the time. i was shaken. 50 organisation at the time. i was shaken. , ~ shaken. so dtm hire, the management _ shaken. so dtm hire, the| management organisation shaken. so dtm hire, the i management organisation is saying that they accept that the tm oh contributed to the fire, the tragedy. they say they sincerely hope the findings of the report will lead to safer homes for all those people in social housing. they say there are no staff currently in place who were employed by the tm oh at the time of the tragedy. 0n employed by the tm oh at the time of the tragedy. on an organisational level, does everyone involved in this need to take heed of what has been said because, just saying the

staff there at the time i no longer in place is not enough, is it? {131 longer in place is not enough, is it? _, , longer in place is not enough, is it? , ., ., is it? of course not. it would be shocking _ is it? of course not. it would be shocking if _ is it? of course not. it would be shocking if someone - is it? of course not. it would be shocking if someone was | be shocking if someone was still working there. it would be really shocking. the other side is that there are some decision—makers on the council side who are still in place. whether they or not elected councillors, that is what people are asking. we have had a lot of fine words, people being very sorry about what has gone on. what we haven't had and have been promised, is actual change. anyone around here, we'll say that's not enough has changed. they are still treated as second class citizens or not taken seriously. that is really not good enough after seven years. all the platitudes we have heard in that time. 5.31; all the platitudes we have heard in that time. say they are saying _ heard in that time. say they are saying we _ heard in that time. say they are saying we fully - heard in that time. say they are saying we fully accept i heard in that time. say they l are saying we fully accept the findings of the report. gwen fell was wholly available with

failure on every single level. how do you put those fine words as you describe them, i know you are notjust talking about that statement. broadly, lots of statements we have heard since the publish went yesterday. how do we put that into action that is actually going to stick and make a difference?— going to stick and make a difference? ., , difference? that is the thing. what are the _ difference? that is the thing. what are the time _ difference? that is the thing. what are the time actions? i difference? that is the thing. i what are the time actions? who is going to see that they actually happen? i heard that the council is more anxious about having a labour government. there may be a completely different type of script it might not be friendly, buddy buddy, which it has been before. we hope far more robust with how that works out. i don't understand why some of those people are still in place, coming up with fantastic pr statements and so on which i have read. they had you in tears, but they have not done enough to keep people safe in our homes right here. thank

you. in our homes right here. thank ou. ., ~' in our homes right here. thank ou. ., ~ , ., y in our homes right here. thank ou. ., ~' , ., , . in our homes right here. thank ou. . ~' i” , . ., you. thank you very much for our you. thank you very much for your thoughts _ you. thank you very much for your thoughts today. - you. thank you very much for your thoughts today. you - you. thank you very much for your thoughts today. you are | your thoughts today. you are watching bbc news. just to be aware that we are continuing to cover this on the website so do check that out if you want any more information on the grenfell story. just to bring you some breaking news now. the crowns prosecution service says it is discontinuing to indecent assault charges brought against harvey weinstein in 2002 because there is no longer a real prospect of conviction. following a review of the evidence, the cps has decided to discontinue criminal proceedings against harvey weinstein. he was a disgraced former hollywood producer. the

cps has a duty to keep all cases under a continuous review and we have decided there is no longer a realistic prospect of conviction. dismissed by the cps. the ugandan marathon runner, rebecca cheptegei, has died four days after being set on fire in an alleged attack by her boyfriend. the olympic athlete was reportedly doused with petrol at her home in western kenya where she had been training. cheptegei — who was 33 — sustained burns on more than 70% of her body. the boyfriend was also injured. there are concerns about the increasing cases of violence against female athletes in kenya, some of which have resulted in death. 0ur africa sports correspondent, celestine karoney has more on the story. doctors treating her said the 33—year—old died after she suffered organ failure as a result of the extensive burns that she suffered in that attack on sunday.

doctors had said that her burn percentage was at 80% and she had been in critical condition since arriving in hospital on monday. the authorities in north—west kenya, where cheptegei lived and trained, said she was attacked when she came back from church with her two children, and the alleged assailant, who the family said — the family told the media — is an ex—boyfriend, who also suffered extensive injuries. he was in the intensive care unit and doctors say he suffered 30% burns. cheptegei started competing in athletics in 2010. she first represented uganda as an under—20 athlete in the world cross—country championships and in recent years she has competed in high—profile competitions, as well. last year she was part of the marathon team in the world championships

and this year she competed in the paris 0lympics, where she finished aath. but she really did achieve success in the mountain and trail running competitions, winning the inaugural event gold medal back in 2022. so she was an athlete — she may have been ugandan but she lived and trained in kenya. and this is an area in the country which is known to produce so many top distance running. really, really tragic for also kenyan athletes who really knew her. i was speaking to some this morning, they found her to be very affable, she was very nice, very easy to deal with, as well. armed police in munich have shot dead a man suspected of carrying a firearm near a museum that documents nazi history in the southern german city. local reports say the man

was hit during an exchange of fire at the centre which is near the israeli consulate. police have launched a large operation in munich's city centre and appealed to the public to avoid the area. water company bosses could be banned from receiving bonuses and even jailed if they obstruct investigations under new government legislation aimed at reducing sewage spills. the bill — which will apply in england and wales — gives regulators more powers to act and impose penalties when companies pollute. critics say that the problem hasn't been the laws — but the willingness of the industry regulator 0fwat to enforce them. the water companies want 0fwat to back their £105 billion investment plan — which would be paid for through higher customer bills. speaking in the last hour, the environment secretary, steve reed, said the government was focused on holding water executives to account. since 2020 water chief exec sips have paid themselves millions of pounds in bonuses, and incentives. despite the

damage their companies have been causing. this bill will give off what new powers to ban bonuses for the executives and senior leadership of water companies unless they meet high standards when it comes to protecting the environment, their consumers, financial resilience... water executives will no longer get away with polluting our rivers, lakes and seas and then rewarding themselves a bonus. they will be held accountable and if they fail to meet the standards, companies may need to remove executives from posts, or take other corrective actions. a 14—year—old boy has appeared in court charged with murdering an 80—year—old man in a park near leicester. the investigation was launched after bhim kohli died from serious injuries after he was attacked while walking his dog near away from his home in braunstone town on sunday. 0ur reporter natasha turney has been following the story at leicester crown court.

if you are affected by the jeremy kyle story, you can find support by inserting the bbc action line. time for a look at the weather, with matt taylor. hello. some sunshine and warmth to come across northwestern areas over the next few days, but for those in southern counties of england and south wales, rainfall is the story — maybe as much as a month's worth of rain for one or two. and if you're on the move, be prepared — there could be some flooding and travel disruption around, as well. if i show you the rainfall forecast chart in terms of totals, it pinpoints southern parts of england and wales — particularly

towards the southwest — highest totals possible maybe up to 100mm in one or two isolated places. these are the weather fronts responsible — it's round an area of low pressure to the south through today and tomorrow, but at the same time, north of it, a strengthening easterly wind will bring humid air off the near continent, and temperatures will rise in the west. and it's here in the north and west where we'll see the best of today's weather in terms of sunshine. temperatures continuing to climb, as well. a few more breaks in northwest england compared with the morning. lots of cloud elsewhere, thick enough for some patchy light rain or drizzle. heavy bursts of rain working their way westwards across southern counties of england and south wales. brisk wind, too — especially for england, wales and eastern scotland, pinning the temperatures back on those eastern coasts, but maybe 20 to 22 celsius possible in western scotland. now, this evening, some of the heaviest rain will be in the southwest, but it leaves off for a time before more showers start to push their way in — not as extensive, though, as we'll finish the day, but rumbles of thunder possible, and increasingly humid for all of us into tomorrow morning — temperatures not dropping much lower than the mid—teens for many. but extensive mist and low cloud, northern, eastern scotland, through the central belt, northeast england — some of that will be

a struggle to shift. a bit more sunshine, though, elsewhere — and even in the south, where we'll continue to see bursts of heavy and thundery rain, more of you will avoid it with a better chance of some brighter breaks. temperatures where the rain's falling still rather suppressed here, but a humid day elsewhere — 26 in northwest england, 25, maybe 26 in some parts of western scotland. and then through into the weekend. we've still got low pressure in france, but not as strong an easterly wind. weather system, though, does start to push a bit northwards — fairly weakened, but it does mean a bit more cloud more widely in northern england on saturday, with the chance of a few showers. still the odd shower and thunderstorm in the south. best of the sunshine, western scotland and northern ireland again — but even here, temperatures dropping — lifting a bit, relative to the next couple of days, in east anglia and the south east. as for sunday, greater chance of some showers and thunderstorms again through england and wales. more cloud into scotland and northern ireland, and accordingly, temperatures will drop a little bit further.
