I very much hope 'social cleansing' is not on the cards - the great value of Peckham is its rich mix of people both living and visiting the areas. If you mean removal or discouragement of criminal activity (including vandalism) then I would agree of course - and I would be very much in favour of actual cleaning in the area - the fact that Peckham is 'mixed class' is a good thing, surely (which is what 'social cleansing' often refers to). Kings Cross (which stimulated this part of the debate) had a very significant prostitution and drugs culture - with some elements of rack-renting and significant criminality. It was also far more 'run-down' and over a wider area) than the area around our station - even if that could do with more investment. -
Yet we can. Given the development of the shopping centre, the expensive flats, lack of social hosing, closure of the stalls and hairdressers around the station to make room for the new square, I think it's quite clear where this is going. It's not improving the area for the existing, its removal of the existing to make it better for the upgrade of the area. -
