Nothing to see here.”
This explains the tendency across the cop-comedy genre — and cop dramas and action flicks — to allow suspects to fall off a building edge (despite the cop’s best efforts to hold on), slip off a building edge while trying to punch the cop, land on their own knife because they were trying to stab a cop, crash the boat, the car, the helicopter, the plane, the motorcycle, be consumed in flames not lit by the cop but by the anxious combustibility of the modern metropolis.]]></description>

The Project is planned to include “132 new homes, 14 artisan arch space workshops, 7 commercial units, 2 restaurants and a new market square.” This new build, one of a large number over the previous decade, will dramatically reconfigure the racial and class make-up of the area, and is a potential drive for the new businesses opening on the High Street (a skate shop, a bike shop/cafe, a coffee shop, the Job Centre pub, an art shop, &c).]]></description>

Skepta’s 2007 debut album, Greatest Hits, arrived just as the UK music industry was beginning to lose interest in black British music. “I want anybody from around the world to be able to listen to the album and know it comes from London,” he says—“from the beats, not just the vocals.”
Konnichiwa had initially been scheduled to come out in March 2015, but all his success this past year, in addition to a new management team, have forced a new strategy: he wants to take his time and get it right.]]></description>

The underlying problem of the housing crisis is that there are not enough homes for people to live in.”
However, the communes’ residents draw parallels with what is happening in other parts of London, such as Hackney, Brixton and Newham, where people have been threatened with eviction as social landlords seek to capitalise on rising property prices, their actions threatening to undermine established, diverse neighbourhoods.]]></description>

When so many of us are already anxiously asking the question, “Where are we going to live?”, the triumphant rally of Foxtons makes clear which side of the property market will benefit from the present administration. Between 2010 and 2014 alone, the social housebuilding budget was slashed from £2.3 billion to £1.1 billion [$3.6 billion to $1.7 billion], yet the government spent more than £115 billion [$180 billion] on subsidizing the profits of private landlords through tax breaks, build-to-let schemes, and housing benefit.]]></description>

So begins the momentous task of legislating an alternative way of living – coming up with what might sound like a contradiction in terms, a “warehouse blueprint”. We have over 1000 tenants, not one single one of them takes housing benefit.”
While the council’s decision to draft a warehouse policy is generally thought of as “pretty progressive, for Haringey”, many of the residents – especially those familiar with the implementation of City Hall’s London Plan – express concerns about th]]></description>

After that record, vocalist Buttery left the group because, in Whalley’s words, “our ideas just didn’t come together like they did on the previous record.” Darkstar’s founding duo set about returning to “that mix between human and electronic we were pulling on when we first starting making music on Hyperdub.” Buttery’s voice has now been replaced by Whalley’s, whose tone sits high in his register and close in your ear; but more fundamental than their stylistic shift is the change in what they want to say. “I’ve found [election coverage] was a phase of certain publications’ shelf life, and I think it’s such an important and impactful decision that [the country has] made and it’s just been forgotten.” More broadly, what drove Darkstar to make this record was seeing “the north not being documented in an accurate way”—Young relates his frustration with the mass media’s]]></description>

As London’s affordable housing crisis deepens – spurred by the collapse of new social housing construction, and the sale of hundreds of thousands more social flats under right-to-buy – the galvanisation of the British capital’s local communities has been astonishing. But that programme ended in 2002, and since the wall came down Berlin has become this laboratory of neoliberal urban governance.”
As in London, Vasudevan says, funding for social housing collapsed, and simultaneously thousands of what used to be social housing properties were privatised.]]></description>

    <dc:creator>wrrn</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Opposition MPs did admirable jobs of acting as the Deputy Speakers as the latter seemed incapable of steering the debate in any semblance of a functional direction, but were generally drowned out by the sound of guffawing Tories and the constant background tinkling of MPs achieving high-scores on Candy Crush. Just 8 per cent of the population now live in council accommodation, with nearly 1.4 million households on social housing waiting lists while only 30,000 affordable rented homes were built in 2013 -2014 and the section of the bill which will scrap permanent council housing tenancies will only throw more people into destitution, at a time when rough sleeping has increased 55 per cent since 2010.]]></description>

    <dc:creator>wrrn</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Section 44 of the Deregulation Act, an amendment to existing housing legislation introduced in February of last year, states that if a property is let out to short-stay guests for more than 90 days in a calendar year, the homeowner must receive planning permission from his or her local authority for a change of use to short-stay letting—something London authorities are reluctant to allow. If, as InsideAirbnb’s figures show, 10,000 of the Airbnb listings in London are from hosts with more than one property on the site, that’s a huge number as a proportion of the 24,100 active hosts that Airbnb claims operate in the city.]]></description>

Keeping prices high is the business most of these property magnates are in: the housing crisis which makes the London market impossible for young first-time buyers on average incomes is, of course, the lifeblood of many who run and attend MIPIM. Attracting more foreign investors into the London market – particularly to buy smaller properties which can be rented back to young Londoners unable to get on the housing ladder – is central to their continued influence across global property markets.]]></description>

Kerem admitted to moments of anxiety at the sheer scale of the task – but there was also confidence and a belief in how big this could be for the capital: “It might even give local authorities a kick up the arse and show them, ‘Look, affordable housing in London is actually possible.’”

That’s the main problem here and that a few million pounds is a drop in the ocean to those with wealth as it’s impossible to spend and as each year goes by their wealth just increases
we need to have new laws in where all renting and buying of homes becomes a profession and like law everyone is accountable
We need to have laws which make it impossible to just buy a home here in the uk and not live in it
very basic things like this over the next few years will make a great difference in living in the uk as people will know from the off that a professional agent is just a phone call away to make sure any repairs that are needed are swiftly dealt with

It’s hard to see how it wouldn’t.”
Higgins is adamant that, since the insulation meets the regulations, the problem must be somewhere else: “In the past, we have had a few cases of noise complaints, which we have attended to, and these have been identified as people moving into new accommodation and getting used to the new properties and different background noises.” Lambeth council, after two years of pressure from the residents’ association, undertook to find a solution for the social tenants, and were in the process of commissioning further insulation.]]></description>

The co-operative paid £620,000 for the property in Walthamstow, with the purchase financed by loans from Co-operative & Community Finance (which lends to organisations owned and controlled by their members) and a linked organisation, the Co-operative Loan Fund, plus various individuals and other housing co-ops. It had to find a suitable property, sort out the finance, negotiate with estate agents, apply for planning permission to change the use of the building, and form an "industrial and provident society" to raise additional funds to meet some of the costs and finance the sustainability measures members want to introduce, while at the same time building up a strong group of like-minded people.]]></description>
