It is utterly insane that we have devoted large chunks of housing in the most productive part of the country to hosting our least productive people. Quote tweeting: Benjamin Lewis @tc1415 Aug 4 No. Utterly no. Just no. And no again to be clear. They have as much right to live in London-proper as you or I do. A good state provides for them, for you, for me, and for the Duke of Westminster at the same time (notice I don't deny that Belgravia should exist) twitter.com/kevinf567/stat...
