- Documentary about the London Dockland Development Corporation, an agency set up by the UK Government to regenerate the docklands, but resulting in an increase in homelessness among local people.
A very good historical and social document of its day that prophesied our times now .....
Thank you for uploading these videos
I miss the docks, made some great places to explore, and excellent TV chase sequences.
Stole from the poor and gave to the well heeled.
Thatcher then Boris

greed his good do care about little poeple
Can’t believe how expensive those new houses were.
£200k in 1982 was an absolute fortune - like winning the pools.
The London docks largely closed in the 1970s, with the final closure of the major docks occurring in 1981.
This marked the end of London’s role as a major cargo port.
The decline of the docks began after World War II due to changes in shipping technology, particularly the introduction of containerization, which required larger ships and facilities that the London docks couldn’t accommodate.
Some very good examples of the worst sort of Tories here!
True
They all work towards the same targets. There is NO difference!
Really interesting. 40 years later.....was it all that is was cracked up to be?
Nothing changes sadly
in a word broken
Nothing has changed since the 80s, certainly but it was another world before then.
@@davidbull7210 view point greed from 1980s do care just little people local
So, the less well off need to understand that change is good. I'm sure that would be a comfort to them when they're freezing in a box. All the redevelopment, 37 years later and nothing changes for the better _really_.
Compulsory purchases with no legislation to enforce mandatory rehousing. Madness. Like something you'd expect from a third world failed state.
This happened to my family in Hull in the 1980's. My parents bought an 1890's house for £1000 in 1976. The council knocked thousands of homes down. Not many people owned their house though, round here at that time. Even though my parents got £4000 for it in 1983, it wouldn't buy one of the new houses that they built in the area, and any old houses were at risk of being pulled down as well, so there was little point in going in one of them. We were the last to move out of our street and spent some time there living in a 'ghost town' !
Harold Shand was right.
Lets talk about the earls
I wonder what become of the young couple julia and Robin and there 2 children
the smug look on the faces of those who bought dwellings and sold them for double 2 years later.......question! where they in the know?????? who where they friends with????? who's money was used???? ....etc etc.
feel really sorry for that part of London as those people had mass immigration from the 3rd world which also forced them to move out as well. London is taken over now, no wonder it's called londonistan. British people have to fight back to get what was and is ours
that's hardly a fair comparison.
As I just equated these situation to when speaking to my sister to make her finally understand: when I visit England I want to visit ENGLAND, not a third world East Asian or Middle eastern country. When I want to see that I’ll go THERE. (FunnY, they don’t have other cultures & peoples swarming into THEIR countries and trying to change it.)
Rubbish my parents didnt move because of that its because when they got money they moved into a real house in luton not a london dump site. Nothing to do with "other" right wing are deplorable freakish souls . They need to repent and find Jesus. He'll take your violence and hate and forgive you
Thatchers 12 years, 14 Boris vears equals Afrikaans slum UK
Never heard of The British Empire, then?
