London supremacy

What difference did it make to housing? The existence of the local authority doesn't affect the amount of land available. Even after the demise of the unloved council it was still mostly the same councillors running things. I suppose the Powers That Were could have swamped the locals' hostility to Humberside with indifference, by shipping in vast numbers of people from well outside the Yorks/Lincs area who would probably be less bothered about it, but I'm not sure what that would really achieve! -- Arthur Figgis Surrey, UK |
