I was not drawing Mr. John McCarthy into this at all but he has jumped in. The interpretation of sustainability frustrates the life out of me. I was raised in the middle of a large town with council estates on every side. We seem to have lost the phrase "council estates". I did not differentiate between private homes and council homes. They were very good communities. Again, I return to the philosophy that meant local authorities were deeming 50% of the available homes in the midst of a housing crisis not suitable. We are talking about the need to avoid over-concentration. At what point does over-concentration kick in?
