UK rapper Peaky goes viral with Grenfell Tower interview

UK rapper Peaky spoke to the BBC about the shocking fire that took place in Grenfell Tower, West London. He didn’t hold back on the live broadcast stating, “I’m not so sure that was totally an accident”. As the presenter tried to cut him off and apologised for his language, he ended with the point “I’m not really f*cking with the government right now” and walked away.

Accident or not, clear negligence has taken place and those responsible must be held accountable. A version of the viral video has been edited with the text ‘BBC won’t air this again’.
