if you look at grenfell, bringing us right up to date, immediately after the fire and you had the council they have done nothing wrong, the emergency response, some of the contractor is issuing condolences, but at the end of them they were saying, by the way, we did nothing wrong either and people are making the denials before they have even looked at their own behaviour. the other feature of course is that we heard it in the peace there, everybody is very well legally represented apart from the families of the victims. exactly. in any of these disasters or tragedies, that is exactly right. the army, the police, the local authorities, the nhs, whatever it is, all entirely properly fully represented, but the victims are not. if you look at the birmingham pub bombings, the families after 45 years, were spending most of their time trying to get funding so that they could go to the inquests of their loved ones. it is there a point that sometimes it is right to say it is time to close this issue, we are not going to have an enquiry? may be families are clinging onto unrealistic hopes of what m
