In June 2017, Emma made history when she was elected Kensington’s first ever Labour MP. Six days after her election, Grenfell Tower fire saw 72 local residents lose their lives in the worst residential fire since WWII. Cuts to "red tape" save money. Regulations save lives. x.com/emmadentcoad...
Screencap of tweet by Emma Dent Coad quoting tweet by Kemi Badenoch.

Emma Dent Coad: "Grenfell - 72 died from the fire, at least five died by suicide, 11,000 have PTSD, concerns about long term effects of toxicity on residents, 11 firefighters with terminal cancer - plus £1bn spent and rising.

That's 'nothing' right?"

Kemi Badenoch: "Cutting red tape costs taxpayers nothing.

It's a common sense solution to get Britain building."
