Abstract

“We are being removed and dispersed from our own area, and the cheap restaurants we are going will be replaced by gastro pubs and very expensive eating places,” says Martin. Over the last 24 years, the East London resident has seen his neighborhood undergo dramatic changes. He has watched the residential area which has long been home for British working-class people, immigrants from Bangladeshi, Somalia, Ireland and Eastern Europe at different time periods shrinking slowly as luxury property developers and investors gentrify the historic working class neighbourhood.
