You know it's really great things have turned out this way.. I do hope it's for the best.

Not generalising here, but I hope they don't have problems with the feral little shits that congregate at night. Lighting bins, smoking weed leaving rubbish.. or is that just Hackney :snooty:

I tried to find a positive spin, like maybe there is less social housing so they need less outdoor space (proportionally) but even if that is the case how can you justify that sort of segregation


You can't.

That seems quite petty as the development would not even have happened without the social housing. The local authority should have insisted on either proper access when the plans were being approved or agreed to pay a little from the rent they get from their tenants towards it as I bet the rents aren't that cheap either.


Just reminds me of 'gated areas' you get in the States.





It's nothing like the gated areas you get in America you toss pot.
They are patrolled by private security and the amount of rules they have about noise, music after a certain hour BBQs home improvements etc, you'd be better off living in the social housing

Most illegal drug use is by the middle classes.
Most financing for drug smuggling comes from the middle classes.
Most drug dealing is by the middle classes so lets hope those snotty little middle class little shits that congregate at night give the poorer kids some weed instead of selling it to them.

Not from what I'm seeing... most of the customers are snotty nose little shits, whilst the dealers are feral little shits ..
