From what I read , it was reported that many of those were not insured.
My experience of insurance claims is that in situations like this the insurance companies(well, mine anyway) pay out a fixed amount to cover immediate needs of clothing and accommodation.

No amount of money can compensate them for their loss.
There was a lot of community support (not done by government, but by their community) to ensure that clothing was provided.

There has been a lot of political point scoring by some factions,the grief and misfortune was hijacked for political purposes.
To my mind this is despicable.
And then there was the 'anarchic 'Day of Rage' on Wednesday.
This was organised by the Justice by Any means Necessary.
What does that phrase avtually mean?
Does it mean that these young people(they were mainly students...but not very good students looking at the placards) were willing to break the law to get their own way?
Because that is not Justice.
These people were not showing 'solidarity' with those who lost family in the Grenfell Towers tragedy...they were political activists with only one aim in mind. Political destabilisation...at a time when things are already a bit rocky.
Someone should teach these people that if they sink the boat we are all in together...they will get wet too and some of them may drown.

The fact that the Labour party and Jeremy Corbyn did not put a stop to it...for no other reason than the police were already stretched...had their leave cancelled says much about this unwholesome political gang....because that is what they are...a gang.
No democracy in them at all.
