Episode 11 - The Grenfell Tragedy – A Dark Reflection on Inequality in Britain (Part 1)

In this powerful first episode of a two-part series, The Miss Information Podcast dives deep into the devastating events of Grenfell Tower on that tragic night in June 2017, when a fire claimed 72 lives in one of the UK’s wealthiest boroughs. Host Zee, aka The Reluctant Accountant, revisits the heartbreaking details of the fire and explores how it highlighted staggering class and wealth inequalities within London, exposing the neglect faced by marginalised communities in Britain.

As the Grenfell Inquiry’s Phase 2 Report has just been published, Zee sets the stage for next week’s episode by examining the broader social and economic factors that contributed to the disaster. She unpacks how the fire served as an indictment of the UK’s treatment of marginalised groups and opened up critical discussions on social housing, inequality, and accountability.

In Part 2, Zee will delve further into the recent report, scrutinising the actions (or inactions) of those deemed responsible and analysing the system failures that led to such a catastrophic outcome. Join us every Monday for insights into Britain’s most pressing social issues on The Miss Information Podcast.
