@C4Dispatches @Channel4 After the controversy over @Channel4's toxic ident, a lesson should have been learned about the portrayal of council homes - especially the Aylesbury. In the midst of a housing crisis, #councilhomes are crucial to reducing the inequality divide in Britain
#representationmatters

[Common Ground VR Documentary @CommongroundVR]

@C4Dispatches @Channel4 Why does this clip include footage of the #AylesburyEstate? Neither of the stories featured involve a family living on or near the estate. The continued use of images of #socialhousing to decorate unrelated stories contributes to the demonisation of council homes.
