The London council is being criticised for not doing enough to help the victims of the Grenfell Tower fire.

The death toll from the West London inferno that ripped through the 24 storey block is 17, but is expected to rise significantly.

Vincent McAviney from LBC told Mike Hosking he hasn't seen anyone from the council at the apartment building for the last two days.

"People are asking serious questions about why in the fifth richest country in the world, in the richest borough in the entire country, you have this lackluster response from authorities."
