Stephen Aslin, who is nearly halfway through his 30,000-mile (48,280km) global charity cycling trip, says the support he has received from people from different countries has been "amazing". He told BBC London: "Children wave to me as I cycle and when I stop I've found wherever I am people are friendly and welcoming." So far he has travelled through 24 countries, including Germany, Turkey, Nepal and Uzbekistan. Stephen aims to reach New York for the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks in September 2026.

The decision made by the Tory Government in the immediate aftermath of the fire to leave the same negligent Tory council in charge of the aftermath with a blank cheque, without any oversight or scrutiny, was a grave misstep, harmful for the victims and irresponsible.
