Have to say I am pretty amazed at the callousness of the responses to new that the families affected by this are to be rehoused near to their friends and relatives rather than hundreds of miles away as often happens.

The right wing fake news is just swallowed whole and the fact that they will be housed in flats already set aside as social housing is ignored and people are focusing on the fact that it will be next to luxury flats.


It is because of the views of luxury flat owners, ironically many of whom are dodgy middle eastern and Russian Criminals wanting the eye sore of a council flat to be hidden behind what ended up being a lethal flammable cladding, that these families are homeless.


And yet the clowns are now suggesting that the luxury flat owners are now ' victims ' because of having to live next to Londoners. Clueless. Housing is so expensive and in short supply in London that many, many people and families in social housing work bloody hard. I have many friends who live in council flats in London but work, Tree Surgeons, Musicians, Plumbers etc. You don't even have to be poor to not be able to afford youwr own flat but the working poor is a bigger percentage than the unemployed poor, and yet people still want to look down their nose at them? After pretending to understand Joe sixpack or pretending to want an end to social inequality.

I am a fucking idiot for believing that a lot must get lost in translation and that we were all normal everyday working people. It seems many think they are above us.


We own our home and yet on the other side of the road it is council housing. This is quite usual in Britain where you have been able to buy council houses since Thatcher and mixed development is the norm. I always thought that was a good thing. Apparently not. Social segregation and apartheid is apparently preferable.
