Proceeding contribution from Lord Khan of Tooting (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 7 December 2006. It occurred during Estimates day on Affordable Housing.


Affordable Housing

Has my hon. Friend read ““The New East End””, published earlier this year? While it confirms that that is one of the reasons for the hostility felt by white working-class east Londoners towards east Londoners of Bengali origin, it also makes the noteworthy observation that the hostility is directed at the system rather than the players. It is worth thinking again about the 1968 legislation whereby need trumps entitlement.
