Barker Review - 28 April 2004 Mr. David Curry (Skipton and Ripon): The problem now is that one has to be very well off or very badly off to live in the inner cities. For instance, Leeds has some high quality housing in the centre, but it is expensive. It is the middling sort who find it difficult to live in cities. I was a little hesitant when my hon. Friend said that part of the pressure in the south was the result of people migrating from the north. I am not sure whether that is true. I think that people are trickling out of the cities in the north into the suburbs. The pressures in the south-east are very much the result of household formation and immigration into London and the outer areas. I think that there is a net migration from the south to the north. |
