Petition Started to Bring Arconic to Justice
There is widespread outraged that witnesses who worked at Arconic, the company that made the Grenfell cladding, are trying to get out of appearing before the Grenfell Tower Inquiry. Arconic is using an old French law as an excuse for its staff (current & former) who live in France and Germany not to give evidence. They say this French law means that if their employees share information about the company they could face prosecution in France.
