1/9 £3bn levy could scupper plan for lower-cost homes, say housebuilders thismon.ee/a/10997727 via @ThisIsMoney. Didn’t take long for this to happen. Point is that this is a sector that has been subsidised to the tune of £30 billion with Help To Buy. And what came back?

The hardest and most important article I have written in 20 years of journalism: Five years ago on Tuesday, 72 people died at #Grenfell. Over 10 pages, this is the definitive account of the disaster - and the lies, cover-ups and mistakes that led to it thetimes.co.uk/article/corne…
