00:00As a Prime Minister, current or former, you are a custodian of the state, and its failures,
00:07whether on your watch or not, are something that you feel deeply. To that end, I want
00:13to extend my deepest apologies to the families and victims of the Grenfell Tower tragedy.
00:19The state let you down, and it must never do so again. The mission to ensure no such
00:25tragedy can ever happen again is one I know the whole House supports, but more than that,
00:32it is part of a legacy we must create and maintain so that our actions meet the full
00:38meaning of our words.
