Does not the Minister feel ashamed of the new housing figures? Is he aware that the feeling is increasing that the Tories do not understand the problem of working-class people who are condemned to live year after year in rotten housing which is not being helped by improvement grants? I invite him to come to my borough. He knows that in my borough, despite any number of improvement grants, the number of houses available for ordinary working-class people is decreasing. We know that there are new buildings but they are not in Lambeth. There is not enough land in Lambeth.
