Your statement is so untrue its not even funny. Council Estates in England are much worse than that in Scotland yes but I'm pretty sure not all the people living in them are scum. Sure a lot of them are but not all of them. Most are people trying to make a life for themselves but get caught up in all this violence and drug dealing. It only takes a few bad people to make a neighbourhood look very bad.

Where I live theres a huge private estate with houses ranging from £150K to £700K and its a great place. Now the councils are doing part ownership in a part of it and will be putting council residents into this big fancy estate. All it takes is for a couple of bad people to get into that area and it brings down the whole estate. The current people living in the private houses are protesting about it but there is nothing that can be done. I'm sure it won't be scum that will be put into these houses but ya never know.
