Grenfell Tower fire council warned against 'continuity' candidate for leadership

Councillors have warned Conservatives against selecting a "continuity" candidate to become the new leader of the local authority at the centre of the Grenfell Tower fire.

Daniel Moylan, Tory councillor for the Queen's Gate ward, said he understood the local Conservative group was planning to meet privately on Monday evening to discuss who they will put forward to take over from Nicholas Paget-Brown.
