Cladding on 181 UK tower blocks has failed fire safety tests enacted after the devastating blaze at London’s Grenfell Tower, which killed at least 80 people.

The British Government has confirmed that about 600 buildings are being tested.

So far all the material tested has failed, but the most concerning buildings are being tested first.

Retired judge Martin Moore-Bick will lead a public inquiry into the Grenfell incident.

Police have warned it could be next year before the final death toll is known.
