11: Deception
Are the new towns part of the solution to inner city squalor - or are they part of the problem?
Since the war the new towns have provided housing for the city slum-dwellers and jobs for the urban unemployed. But at the same time the big cities have been losing population - Manchester 20 per cent and Liverpool 40 per cent since 1961 - and the Government's recently announced strategy for the inner city areas included a brake on new town expansion.
Noel Boaden reports from the North West, where the contrast between the two approaches is sharpest; and from Strathclyde, where the cancellation of the Stonehouse New Town has been followed by the funding of an ambitious urban renewal project for Glasgow.
