The Guardian view on the Grenfell report: a shocking indictment of government and industry

But culpability extends much wider. One of the most striking things about Grenfell is the sheer number of private and public bodies that bear a share of responsibility for what happened. The architects Studio E, the builders Rydon and Harley Facades, the fire consultant Exova and the misleadingly named tenant management organisation (which was really an arm’s-length body of the council) are all blamed for grave failures, and for being part of the “merry-go-round of buck-passing” described by the inquiry’s lead counsel.
