People ask just who reads this blog. Every few months we send out 6,000 leaflets into the local community to provide the latest reliable information and this web address is on every leaflet. This blog is local information for local people devised from the leads they give the Residents Association.
However in recent months, as the housing debate has gone national, our local readers have been joined by the journalists trying to get a handle on this most essential of public policy issues - how do we house our people and why is it being left to millionaire property developers and speculators.
Journalists from the Daily Telegraph, Daily Mail and ITV's Tonight with Trevor McDonald are just some of the readers finding out about the bizarre policy to bulldoze 440 homes in the middle of a housing crisis. Those in power wont answer residents questions we invite our new readers in the media to put the key questions to Gateshead Council and government.
