Housing secretary Michael Gove told the House of Commons today he will “go after” any developers or building firms who are profiting from unsafe construction or refurbishment works.

“To those who mis-sold products like cladding or insulation, to those who cut corners to save cash as they developed or refurbished people’s homes, to those who sought to profiteer from the consequences of the Grenfell tragedy, we are coming for you”, Gove said.
