London, UK, 6th October 2016. Geraldine Dening of Architects for Social Housing holds up the Architects for Social Housing 'O J Simpson Award for getting away with murder' outside the RIBA Stirling Prize award ceremony. The 2016 award from ASH went to drMM Architects for Trafalgar Place, built on the demolished Heygate Estate, which campaigners say was 'stolen from the people' and hundreds of social housing tenants and leaseholders forced to move away from central London. Southwark are one of a number of London councils carrying out similar acts of 'social cleansing', replacing social housing by properties for the wealthy and overseas investors.
