CAMPAIGNERS looking for justice after the Grenfell fire have recreated a scene from an Oscar-nominated film.

Eight months have passed since 71 people lost their lives in the tower block tragedy.

Three 14ft tall lorries bear the phrases ’71 dead’ ‘And still no arrests?’ ‘How come?’

The messages were spotted making their way around London, before stopping in front of the Houses of Parliament.

The lorries also parked for some time at the Grenfell site, where Justice4Grenfell spokesperson Yvette Williams said: “The film that we are using as inspiration, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, highlights the power of advertising to bring about justice.

“We wanted to harness this power to remind people how little has been done since the tragic event shook this community, and the country, just over 8 months ago.

“These billboards are here because there have still been no arrests, hundreds of survivors remain homeless, and 297 other towers in the UK are still covered in flammable cladding.”
