Yahoo Finance Adele shares message to mark fourth anniversary of Grenfell Tower disaster
Singer songwriter Adele has thanked the survivors of the Grenfell Tower fire for continuing on “the fight” for justice as she marked the fourth anniversary of the tragedy.
The 33-year-old recorded a video message for the Grenfell United campaign group and called for the official inquiry into the fire to be sped up.
Adele, who visited Grenfell shortly after the fire and has frequently shared messages of support for survivors, said there were “so many unanswered questions” surrounding the blaze.
She also said that no one had been held accountable for the incident, which led to the death of 72 people.
In the video, the star added: “Grenfell United is still out here, fighting tirelessly for the justice and for the change that not only they deserve, that their community deserve, but that the whole country deserves.
“For that, I’d like to thank you. Thank you for putting your pain aside for all of these years to fight the fight. I can’t imagine the kind of personal consequences that has on you.”
She continued: “I really hope that this time next year, you will have the answers that you need to finally, finally be able to breathe together. I love you. I’ll see you soon. Stay strong. We’re all with you.”
