North Kensington’s derelict 24-storey block, site of the 2017 fire
The Notting Hill Carnival is underway in London over a three-day weekend, with Panoramas, J’Ouvert, family parades and Monday’s Adults’ Parade shaping a festival of Caribbean culture. Crowds fill the route in west London as communities celebrate history, music and food, while Grenfell tribute events run alongside the celebrations.
Prosecutors have received a full evidence file from the Met on 54 individuals and 20 organisations connected with Grenfell Tower, with charging decisions expected before the 10th anniversary of the disaster in June 2027. The process involves possible corporate manslaughter, health and safety offences, fraud and misconduct in public office, following a nine-year police inquiry that examined tens of thousands of documents and statements.
