:02:37. > :02:40.Oh, my gosh! A rapidly spreading inferno, which
:02:41. > :02:44.police today confirmed had its origin in a kitchen of a flat
:02:45. > :02:51.slowdown in the tower. It began, they said, with a Hotpoint fridge
:02:52. > :02:55.catching alight. Witnesses say flames escaped through the window,
:02:56. > :02:59.where they began to race up and across the outside of the building.
:03:00. > :03:04.Which is why the focus right from the start has been on what was added
:03:05. > :03:08.to the tower during its refurbishment. Aluminium cladding
:03:09. > :03:13.and foam insulation. And right from the stop, police wanted to know how
:03:14. > :03:17.fire resistant was it? Preliminary tests on the insulation
:03:18. > :03:24.samples collected from Grenfell Tower showed that they compost it
:03:25. > :03:30.soon after the tests started. The initial test on the cladding tiles
:03:31. > :03:34.also failed the safety tests. Such are our safety concerns on the
:03:35. > :03:37.outcome of those tests, we have shared our data with the Department
:03:38. > :03:41.for Communities and Local Government.
:03:42. > :03:46.The cladding and insulation simply should not have burned so quickly.
:03:47. > :03:49.Instead of a fire which devoured the tower, the damage it should have
:03:50. > :03:55.been little more than this - a fire in Camden in 2012, a fire contained.
:03:56. > :04:01.So the police test have thrown up a string of questions. How did it
:04:02. > :04:06.spread? The materials used are under suspicion. That was the design of
:04:07. > :04:09.the refurbishment also to blame? Did the work completed last year breach
:04:10. > :04:15.building regulations? And are the laws governing building standards
:04:16. > :04:18.clear enough and tough enough? This is a criminal investigation.
:04:19. > :04:22.Police are seizing documents from the companies that managed and
:04:23. > :04:27.refurbished Grenfell Tower. And they will consider potential criminal
:04:28. > :04:29.charges, breaches of health and safety, or even corporate
:04:30. > :04:35.manslaughter. Although that is difficult to prove. For several
:04:36. > :04:39.decades now, councils have been putting up cladding to improve the
:04:40. > :04:44.look and insulation of their ageing tower blocks. Now in what amounts to
:04:45. > :04:50.a crisis for that strategy, some of it being taken down. In Islington,

:05:11. > :05:17.All we want is some strong reassurance. There's a lot of, shall

:05:23. > :05:27.In Wandsworth, where this fire broke out in 2010, 100 tower blocks are to
:05:28. > :05:32.be fitted with sprinklers. But there is grim, unfinished business back
:05:33. > :05:36.Grenfell Tower. Everyone's been accounted for in this flat, but
:05:37. > :05:40.police need help to ensure that identified all victims. Their
:05:41. > :05:41.message today - if you know someone that was there for whatever reason,
:05:42. > :05:44.we need to know. The fact that the cladding
:05:45. > :05:46.and insulation failed the police's tests -
:05:47. > :05:49.does that mean they were both in contravention of existing safety
:05:50. > :05:51.regulations so should never have Or is that the safety regulations
:05:52. > :06:02.themselves aren't tough enough? It's quite possibly the second of
:06:03. > :06:07.those two, Fiona. I think I was struck today by the concern shown by
:06:08. > :06:11.the police that the tests that they had commissioned, independent tests
:06:12. > :06:15.in the wake of this fire, had been failed by the cladding. And the
:06:16. > :06:19.installation, the bits behind the cladding, apply to the size of this
:06:20. > :06:24.building. The installation appears to have burned very quickly indeed.
:06:25. > :06:28.The cladding should have passed the test in 1997 for fire resistance.
:06:29. > :06:32.We've seen the documentation for that. It should have been able to
:06:33. > :06:35.have been used in buildings like this. But I think the fact that we
:06:36. > :06:41.are now seeing tower after tower failing government tests being
:06:42. > :06:45.carried out right now, again, cladding that should have passed
:06:46. > :06:49.previous certification, now failing, shows that there will be enormous
:06:50. > :06:53.scrutiny of England's building regulations, because they are
:06:54. > :06:57.different in the devolved nations. I think the whole system is under
:06:58. > :07:04.scrutiny. And also tonight, the NHS has asked its trust to urgently
:07:05. > :07:08.review the cladding on NHS hospital buildings around England. So this is
:07:09. > :07:12.not over yet and has a long way to run. Tom, thank you.

:09:01. > :09:05.for many at home is the plan tough enough? It gives the EU citizens in

:09:11. > :09:13.the same certainty for the more than 1 million citizens living in the
:09:14. > :09:17.European Union. You've always said voters gave politicians a clear

:09:23. > :09:27.another two years, as many Europeans as they like can still come to live
:09:28. > :09:31.in the UK. For many voters, do you think that will really sound like
:09:32. > :09:36.taking back control? What voters voted for when they voted to leave
:09:37. > :09:39.the European Union was to ensure that outside the European Union, the
:09:40. > :09:45.United Kingdom could establish their own rules on migration and movement

:23:06. > :23:13.I hope it's 3-0 to the Lions but I think it will be really tough.
:23:14. > :23:17.The All Blacks at Eden Park, you just don't beat them there.
:23:18. > :23:19.We might have more chance in Wellington, maybe.

:24:32. > :24:34.I thought rugby was invented in New Zealand, you know, growing up.

:25:43. > :25:45.I've seen cranes all round this ground for

:25:53. > :26:05.It ballooned into the air and Bell dived forward, like a

:26:22. > :26:25.Always good to beat Australia, isn't it?
:26:26. > :26:33.And thank you, all of you very much for listening for all this time.
:26:34. > :26:47.That's it for now, much cooler conditions out there and it is
:26:48. > :26:52.looking mixed over the weekend, this is a scene from this afternoon taken
:26:53. > :26:55.by a weather watcher in skip seats in East Yorkshire. Fair amount of
:26:56. > :26:59.cloud around there but for other parts of the country there has been
:27:00. > :27:03.decent sunshine. This is how things looked in St Andrews in Fife earlier
:27:04. > :27:07.on in the afternoon, lots of glorious sunshine. If we put those
:27:08. > :27:10.locations on the satellite image there has been sunshine piling in
:27:11. > :27:14.across Scotland and Northern Ireland and then we are under quite a lot of
:27:15. > :27:16.cloud in the central swathe of the country with some sunshine and
:27:17. > :27:20.brightness on the south coast heading into the evening. Through
:27:21. > :27:24.this evening and overnight we will see cloud moving through the middle
:27:25. > :27:27.part of the country producing rain across northern England, Midlands,
:27:28. > :27:30.Wales and south-west of England. Largely dry to the south-east of
:27:31. > :27:35.that and clearer spells further north across the country with
:27:36. > :27:45.temperatures dropping between 10-17d, it will not be as hot, muggy
:27:46. > :27:47.and humid as it was earlier this week. On Saturday it will be a
:27:48. > :27:50.breezy day, spells of rain initially for Northern England, Wales and some
:27:51. > :27:52.rain in the south-east of England, patchy rain for parts of England and
:27:53. > :27:57.where you. Sunny skies North for Scotland and Northern Ireland but
:27:58. > :28:00.still some showers blown in from the north-west on the breeze. Another
:28:01. > :28:03.fairly breezy day on Sunday but we have fewer showers compared to
:28:04. > :28:07.Saturday. Quite a lot of dry weather and most of us should season
:28:08. > :28:12.sunshine so a pleasant enough afternoon with temperatures of
:28:13. > :28:16.between 15-23d, not as hot as last weekend but still reasonably
:28:17. > :28:19.pleasant for the time of year. Through the weekend we stick with
:28:20. > :28:23.the fresher feel to the weather, quite breezy at times and that
:28:24. > :28:28.mixture of sunshine and showers. But for most of us Sunday promises a bit
:28:29. > :28:31.more in the way of sunshine. Thank you.
:28:32. > :28:34.That's all from the BBC News at Six, so it's goodbye from me -
