Mrs Angry's Broken Barnet: "How the West was Won: the forgotten story of Hendon Waterside"


Link to web site

"... Part of our borough, mostly on the western side, has been heavily targeted for 'regeneration', with massive development plans for Brent Cross-Cricklewood, Colindale, Grahame Park - and West Hendon.

"Nothing must stand in their way: any objections are brushed aside, or carefully managed.

"... That these developments are not regeneration, and will not provide a better quality of life for the residents of these areas, is demonstrated by the nature of the new schemes: the absence of social housing, the indifference shown for any reasonable definition of 'affordable' housing and - worse still - the eradication of entire communities within their boundaries. [This] policy really is nothing less than the living demonstration of a term, an accusation, that was once an exaggeration, but here in Broken Barnet has become reality: that is to say, the act of social cleansing."
