Proceeding contribution from Jim Fitzpatrick (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 5 May 2011. It occurred during Backbench debate on Social Housing in London.
Social Housing in London
My right hon. Friend is making a strong start to what clearly will be an important contribution to this debate. I entirely accept what she and my hon. Friend the Member for North (Jeremy Corbyn) said about the invisibility of house building to the Administrations of which we were a part. However, the Labour Government inherited 2 million homes below the decency threshold. Does she not give them credit for recognising that that was an absolute priority and for the good work done in that aspect of housing, which was very important, particularly for thousands of homes in Tower Hamlets?
