Class War and ASH posters about housing
The O J SImpson Prize is awarded annually by ASH
ASH's Simon Elmer photographs part of their display
Geraldine Dening of ASH contemplates the map showing social cleansing
of council estates in London
The estates are marked on the map with coloured pins - the majority
of them red for Labour councils
who govern most of London and are doing most of the social cleansing
of council estates
Alternative plans for various estates that show how regeneration could
take place without social cleansing - but
this wouldn't get councillors lavish hospitality, trips to Cannes
and well paid jobs when they leave the councils
Central
Hill estate near Crystal Palace is superb planning and architecture
and in fine structural condition. It should
be Grade II listed but was turned down - possibly becuase of pressure
from the developers who stand to make a
killing, particularly because of its fine position
on a hillside with views across the city.
Some of the threatened estates took part in Open
Gardens Day last year
Some questions relevant to estate generation were on the wall
Class War banner reflects the important role they have played in bringing
housing issues into public debate
particularly through their
'Poor Doors' series of protests at Aldgate
Social cleansing: RED for Labour, BLUE for Tory and YELLOW for Lib-Dem.
