Affordable homes - but not near my house

Boris Johnson has pledged to create 50,000 affordable homes by 2011 in London. Sounds great eh? Only he's ditched Ken's pledge to make half of new developments for lower income families. So now, gated communities can be created in rich boroughs without having to worry about the chavs moving in. Meanwhile, the working class can be stuffed in to ghettoes in inner city boroughs. All hopes of improving the capital's social mix is heading out the window. Marvellous.
