Doves - 'Black And White Town'

Forgot about this song. I still dig it though.

'The council house is a form of public housing found in the United Kingdom. Council houses were built and operated by local councils for the benefit of the local population.

As of 2005, approximately 20 per cent of the country's housing stock is owned by local councils or by housing associations.

The largest council estate in the country (and one of the largest in the world) is Becontree in Dagenham East London with a population of over 100,000.

Building started in the 1920s and took nearly 20 years to finish.

The Republic of Ireland has a similar public housing system, Local Authority Accommodation. '
