London, UK. 8th October 2016. Campaigners in Lambeth, the most unequal borough in the whole of England and Wales with a banner against estate agents Savills who are behind a government policy designationg all council estates as 'brown field 'sites, ripe for demolition and redeveolpment at the Brixton launch of a series of events, 'Stand Up to Lambeth' against the policies of the council, calling on it to stop demolishing council estates, closing libraries and driving out local businesses with the closure of the Brixton Arches. They accuse the Labour council of financial waste and "destroying our communities, racial and social inequality" and "stealing the people of Lambeth's future." The borough's motto is Spectemur Agendo, Let us be judged by our acts, and many in Lambeth have judged the council and found it guilty of social cleansing. Peter Marshall/Alamy Live News
