Grenfell Tower fire: Every single sample of cladding sent for testing has failed fire safety tests

Theresa May has called for a “major national investigation” after results showed cladding on 95 buildings has now failed tests being undertaken in the wake of the Grenfell Tower disaster. The newest figure was revealed at a cabinet meeting attended by the Prime Minister on Tuesday and means every building so far tested across 32 local authorities has failed. Ms May told her ministers the probe is needed to discover “what’s gone wrong” to allow the flawed cladding to be fitted to so many buildings over two decades.
