Today marks 8 years since the Grenfell Tower fire, when 72 people needlessly died because of corporate greed and deceit.

Every year, I am moved by the resolve, kindness and humanity of the community.

8 years on, we are still fighting for justice.

Each of you whispered
before you were born.

On a seductive summer breeze

even though I wondered why

I knew it to be true.

1. Against my own political instincts, I’ve taken what feels like a drastic step, and started stockpiling food. This week’s column explains why.

Britain’s food supply is precarious – and Trump’s chaos is spreading. I have a plan. Do you? | George Monbiot

Fascism doesn’t arrive in uniform overnight. It arrives with suited politicians, one piece of legislation — or executive order — at a time.
