"To all the people of Grenfell, we’re still mourning with you, so to anyone watching this let’s use this time, let’s use today to stand in solidarity with them and say that we ain’t forgotten you. We love you, we’re here for you."
"When the Government and powers that be have turned their back on you, we’re here. We’re here, we’ve got you, we’re not letting this go."
"It’s become my duty – and everyone else’s duty – to make sure we never forget this."
"Let this be a constant reminder, let this be a constant dark stain on British society in terms of that many lives lost and the world kept moving. There’s not been any justice. Let that be a constant reminder."
