Never should have been used. Never should have been made with flammable
material. The Brits were dumb to allow it when others do not.

I wonder though, can it be removed and later replaced instead of
evacuating everyone?

British LAW only allows it on buildings under 18 meters,




You've claimed that before, I asked for a cite, nothing was forthcoming.
Articles posted here about the tragedy said exactly the opposite,
that code did not bar it and that the manufacturer sold it for use
on any height building in the UK.
