Victims of the Grenfell Tower disaster face a wait of at least three years to find out if anyone will be convicted for the failings that led to the fire, despite the official report's blistering conclusions.

Police already suspected the fire and deaths were the result of criminal acts before the report was published having carried out their own extensive inquiries. A victims' group said the official report's findings backed their view that those to blame should be brought to justice.
