I was with Simon Hughes earlier today when he did a TV interview about the Heygate Estate,
near my flat at The Elephant & Castle
100 homes are being knocked down in phase 1.
they are being replaced with 235 new flats.
8 of these will be rented at council house prices.
There will be some at 60% of commercial rent, about £200 per week.
Latest score:
100 council flats lost,
8 flats at council-level rents
