Although Labour started the problem, all the blame cannot be attached to them solely, our politicians from all other parties have stood back and seen this happen not only to our capital but to other English towns and cities.

/// As for white, East End gangsters such as the Kray Twins, you will only find those in movies. ///

/// The same goes for the prostitutes who used to inhabit Soho. Even tramps, for goodness sake, are rarely English any more. Such is the level of liberal propaganda that we have largely remained blind to this startling transformation of our city. ///

Ah yes....those shining examples of the British way of life......you do well to bemoan their passing...
or come on, back in the day weren't many of the crime bosses in London Maltese?

Indeed, much better we adopt the new, improved versions developed abroad.
I bet the ancient Britons thought " there goes the neighbourhood" when the Romans arrived !
street urchins playing marbles

tarts with a heart - teddy boys - those other ones with long sideburns
other men with long hair strumming guitars
long marches to Aldermaston

pearly kinds and queens running up the apples and pears
Crossroads

yes yes they were the souls of the City
and their passing should not go unmourned
why oh why does new Labour hate these symbols of our great .......
I went to London once and didn't like it very much so didn't go back.

I like my little bit of the country :-)

Why don't you bring it more up to date, and consider what the Saxons thought when the Normans arrived?

Don't tell them where it is, wolf.
and hey come on in the East End werent there a lot of German Jews who were burnt out in the anti Hun sentiment of August 1914 ?

Let us instead remember the sacrifice of Boy Cornwall 1915 who got the VC when he stood by his post

The term you need is cosmpolitan
Currently New York and London serve that status

You can deteminedly return a cosmopolitcan city to national status
and this has been done
There was a like minded free thinker called Col Nasser and he deliberately destroyed the cosmopolitan status of Alexandria - which had been cosmpolitan for 2000 y and turned it into just another Egyptian city

Heeeeey good idea - Let's do that to London - first of all we shoot all the muslims ( apols to Shakepeare Henry 6 pt 2 act 4 )

message to Zax - Zax I need your help !
I need you to post like last night something like: "No - no one me neither - hey PP no one here knows who Alexandria is "
Read that this morning. Someone posted underneath, 'Bring back our British thieves'
and got 300 upticks, lol.
///// I bet the ancient Britons thought " there goes the neighbourhood" when the Romans arrived ! ///

oh dear red rag to a bull
actually the first quote in a latin source of a barbarian ( presuming commenting in his barbarian language which in this case would be P or Q goidelic ) was caractonius commenting to a Roman General:
' You create a desert and call it peace !
and he is the first barbarian to be named in a Latin source

The language the auncient britons spoke was unwritten but they think was the precursor and related to Cornish Welsh and Scots Caelic

Yeah I know I know - when I write something like this all I get is ten thousand " wot wiv dat" or " what wiv dat yeah what ? " or as Zax puts - 'No nobody - me neither'

// Even tramps, for goodness sake, are rarely English any more. //

Though there are lot of stupid things in that article, the above is the daftest.
Cockney style gangsters still exist - they moved out to Essex. You still get the odd body in the boot of a car over there.
Maybe the tramps and the prostitutes have prospered under New Labour and don't need to degrade themselves any more?

Just a thought.
@237....we had a body in the boot of a car up here int' North,....might have been Rochdale, will get back to you with precise location.....;)

Yep, was Heywood, only a cockstride from Rochdale

Ah, Rochdale. Do people still laugh when one rides by on one's Alsatian dog? :-)
The country has been run by the Conservatives for nearly 6 years, and London for the past 8, so putting the blame on Labour is just Tory propaganda.

Of London's rough sleepers:

86 per cent are male, 69 per cent are white.

32 per cent have been in prison at some point, 10 per cent in care and 9 per cent in the British armed forces.

Where nationality was recorded, 3,212 people rough sleeping were UK nationals - 43 per cent of the total.

7,581 people slept rough at some point in London during 2014/15, more than double the number in 2008/2009.

/over there/ would that be beyond the far bank of Mucking Creek?
