A review of
Estate Regeneration and its Discontents: public housing, place and inequality in London, by Paul Watt.
This is a most important book, and a powerful indictment of the Tory and Blairite housing agenda.
The objective of council housing was to give everyone a decent place to live, as a right, at a rent they could afford, and with security of tenure irrespective of income. In that it was largely successful.
To the Tories and Labour’s hard right housing is a commodity, nothing more, to be used for the maximisation of profit irrespective of the consequences. Regeneration is part of this commodification.
