The Ford Estate was notorious in the Eighties. Many wouldn't have wanted to live there. Always in the papers, always being vandalised, loads of drug use. One of the worst estates in Birkenhead. There was no purpose for those kids, no point, because there were no jobs. Norman Tebbit told us to get on our bikes, but it's quite hard to ride a bike to London on heroin. There was absolutely nothing for them. The services didn't get to them early enough, there was no education then, and now they've been taking drugs for years. They were the lost generation.
