Housing Secretary Michael Gove has become the first minister to concede that the government shares some of the blame for the Grenfell Tower fire, the Sunday Times reports. In an interview with the paper, Gove says government guidance on building materials “allowed unscrupulous people to exploit a broken system”. He adds that cladding firms were also at fault, suggesting they showed an “active willingness to put people in danger” for the sake of profit.
