London DividedIncome inequality and poverty in the capitalLondon is the most dynamic, cosmopolitan and diverse of our major cities, and is one of a handful of truly 'world cities'. It is also a city that is characterised by huge inequalities in income, employment, and quality of life.London Divided presents new data which reveals the staggering levels of poverty and income polarisation in London. It shows the spatial distribution of disadvantage in the capital, with most wards in Inner London marked by high levels of deprivation regardless of what indicators are used. And it shows the ethnic dimension of poverty in the capital, with most minority groups experiencing high levels of child poverty and unemployment. The overall aim of the report is to initiate a dialogue which will contribute to the GLA group's developing policy agenda on social inclusion in London.
