The move by Tory MP Felicity Buchan has been branded a 'shameful dereliction of duty'
Kensington MP Felicity Buchan, shown walking past Grenfell campaigners, voted against recommendations from an inquiry into the tragedy
The MP – who represents the constituency where the tragedy took place – reacted to protests against the result of the vote by accusing Labour of ‘wilfully politicising’ the disaster, claiming the opposition was trying to ‘cut across’ a related consultation over fire safety.Grenfell United, the campaign group for survivors and bereaved families, tweeted that it was ‘outraged that government and our very own MP Felicity Buchan voted against amendment to implement Grenfell recommendations’.
Ms Buchan accused Labour of trying to ‘cut across’ a Fire Safety Order consultation which is due to conclude on October 12 by adding the amendment. People stand and pay their respects in front of a wall outside Grenfell Tower where messages of support were left on the third anniversary of the tragedy in June 2020
