Just a quick rejoinder about gateshead….The only reason why gateshead is fairly successful in its purpose to be a “pure” city is because NO ONE moves there. it is in a very poor part of england and very few people ever want to move there. The ONLY people who actually live there are the ones who work in the ywesivah and around it. Some people who have accepted the more moderate derech have stayed there. The vast majority of Englanders move out and move to London or Manchester. So, the comparison to gateshead is not valid.
