This is about pay and opportunity to have a career. People do not desire to commute daily into London, they have to for many careers and salary. However, many careers are just not available in Medway. I used to be a Quality Manager in the paper industry and my husband commuted into London as a Software Architect. Both well paid jobs, but no local equivalents. My son with an aerospace engineering degree is having to leave the area for work. Good local jobs using the skills gained in local universities should be part of the focus.
