Croydon Council leader admits failings over housing conditions | ITV News

The appalling state of two council flats in Croydon, London, dubbed the "worst housing conditions ever seen" in Britain could be replicated in other tower blocks within the same borough, Croydon Council leader Hamida Ali admitted to ITV News.
On Monday, ITV News revealed the dangerous squalor Croydon residents have been living in, despite repeated calls to the council for repairs. Since 2019, residents of the block on Regina Road in South Norwood have been complaining to their landlord, Croydon Council, of leaks in their flats - leaks that made their homes uninhabitable.
In this full interview with ITV News Correspondent Daniel Hewitt, Hamida Ali was pressed on how widespread the problem could be - and she admitted she cannot know for sure there aren't other tower blocks dealing with the same issues.
