we heard from david lammy, a labour mp representing tottenham.floor of that tower block who he presumes is dead. he was upset because she was on facebook, posting things at 3:30am, two hours after the fire took place was the she should have been able to get help before that. the other thing raised by many mps is the confusion people living in high—rise tower blocks will be feeling, had out leading staying within their flat. no one should be scared to go to sleep tonight because of that. that was the urgent clarification they are looking for. the minister said, what we're doing, we're sticking to local authorities and making sure that the fire safety checks are being done. the advice could be different depending on what kind of blog you live in. and of course what kind of systems there are in place. thank you. our chief political correspondent there. as we have been saying, a lot of people here still very distressed as they search for missing loved ones. we was beaten to one who was looking for a couple of children who she worked with at her chari

i spoke to david lammy, he represents a constituency of totte n ha m he represents a constituency ofndon. he has said that they have found out that there are problems with one of the tower blocks. yesterday i found out we have a tower with a same cladding as that on the grenfell tower. i have contacted the residents. they wa nt have contacted the residents. they want rapidly to be assured. to know that they are safe. i am speaking with the chief executive of the housing association soon. i have spoke tonne the chair. how will they be made safe? it may be over the next 24 to 48 hours, that if we can't make those buildings safe the people will be rehoused. the tests come back quickly, with the results in a day. the government is urging the councils to get the samples in as quickly as possible to reassure residents or in some way rehouse them. but it is interesting, that the emergency response to what is going on. but there is a wider debate that we heard in the house of commons today about social housing but attitudes to it, about potential austerity, is how jeremy but attitudes to it,

let's speak now with david lammy who represents the seat in totte n ha m , lammy who represents the seathat are your thoughts the idea that there could be hundreds of towers with similar cladding that may or may not be safe? yesterday i found i have a tower block with 22 storeys with the same cladding on the grenfell tower. i have had the residents contacting me. they want to be reassured and they want to be safe. i am comping with the executive of the housing association. it may be over the next 24 to 48 hours, that if they cannot making buildings safe the people must be rehoused. that is a huge operation and also the fact that residents around the country will be feeling scared, even if the building is safe, they don't know whether it is or not. people are saying that they cannot sleep. in #3450i constituency, what the housing association does is to put fire wardens 24 hours in the building and that is helpful and the buildings have sprinklers, that makes a difference. but still, assessments must be made of all of the 600 buildings and rapid liverpool. while we speak, there are familie

earlier i spoke to labour mps david lammy who represent a north london constituency of totte n ha m.f tottenham. yesterday i found out that i have got a tower block of 22 stories with the same cladding that was on the grenfell tower. i have had residents contacting me this morning and they want rapidly to be reassured, they want to know if they are safe, i'm speaking to the chief executive of the housing association very soon. i spoke to the chair also how will they be made safe? it may well be that over the next 24 to 40 hours, if we can't make those buildings safe, they have to be rehoused. that is what the government and local councils are facing as well, if it gets to the stage where more of these buildings are proud to have combusted the cladding on them, what do they do? remove them immediately, that costs money and takes time. do you rehouse people, evacuate people, this is clearly it's a logistical problem for the government and for councils and today in the house of commons we heard a lot of labour mps asking theresa may repeatedly who was going to pay for any work that has

there is, of course, a call from david lammy, labour party mp for charges of corporate manslaughter tothose responsible. we've had hecklers here angry at the media intrusion, deeply angry at the local authorities for not heeding the warnings from the residents' association earlier. warnings about the cladding on the building outside. there is a feeling this could have been stopped, shouldn't have happened. the consequences now are the deep tragedy, the fear of others and a real desire for accountability, responsibility. mark, thank you very much. we'll come back to you very shortly. we hear the prime minister theresa may will chair the civil contingencies committee later on today. that effectively is like cobra, the emergency committee that is convened formatters of terrorism and such like. the civil contingencies committee will be looking at the tragedy that's happened here and the prime minister herself will be chairing it later on today as well as, we know, going to visit people who are in hospital having suffered injuries here. let's go to our political correspondent eleanor garnie
