London is a great city in terms of architecture and buildings, but it is the people that make a city and sadly that is where London falls short and somewhere like New York is streets ahead. On the whole, people from the Fulham/Chelsea area are pompous, stuck up twats who think that they are better than everyone else.

People, people. Its a city of between 12 and 14 million ferchristsakes, you can't dismiss it with a one line soundbite. Like all major cities, its got some knobheads (see: Radish, although he isn't a londoner), some decent people, some shit areas, some nice areas.

 

If London was so shite, people like Chris wouldn't go there for jobs. Its a fucking exciting place, and if you think its 'shit and full of wankers' you haven't been to the right bits. And that is pretty much like every city I've ever lived in.

Why change my name, dick head.

 

How do you know where I was born and whether I am a Londoner or not or where my family is from?

 

I lived in London 12 years of my life, 4 years at Uni, my missus lived there all her life, I have only ever worked in London these past 10 years too. What do I need to do for me to pass comment on it?

 

It is a brilliant city and has everything and every culture. E.g. In New York

post 9/11 - anyone dark coloured (and I have family there) was getting dogs abuse. In London after 7/7, bar the odd incident London was back to normal.

 

It is the most tolerent major city in the world and all those wankers who come for jobs and then moan about it are pathetic. It's like Liverpool fans from London supporting LFC bit calling Anfield a shit hole.

 

No city in England has anything close to Belgravia, Knighstbridge, Oxford Circus etc... no city in Europe has a financial centre like London, no city has as many jobs either.

Rashid really does like to ride the coat tails of the successful. Like claiming he's a Londoner cos he lived there for a while.

 

I had an argument with an old woman last week who said cockneys were "salt of the earth" and "won the war for Britain". I told her she'd been watching to much Eastenders.

:D Quality!

 

Would've been even better if she'd got irate, had a heat attack and died.

 

It's not like Liverpool or Coventry got some urban landscaping from Fritz is it? Besides, how does being flattened contribute to ultimate victory?

 

Stupid old boot.

London. Sucks the life out of meeee.

And the money from my pocket.

 

Maybe, but grub's cheap and there's plenty of Sam Smith's pubs in plum locales. £1.90 for a pint? Easer. Karl, don't do it - unless you really want to be a RIBAwanker.

 

Haha, I might avoid it then. To be honest I love being in Sheffield too much at the minute to even contemplate moving on, especially as I'm still years of qualifying. Like a moth, I'm attracted to the bright lights.

Alright, Reggie Kray.

 

Pissed myself.

I don't know where to start. The above is the worst few paragraphs I have ever read in my life.

Yeah, Londoners don't let go of their emotions and spray the opinions which they're obviously carrying. They just secretly hate and resent anyone outside of their little cliques of intolerant, ignorant, self-righteous, pretentious, unfoundedly-arrogant wankers, and wouldn't throw their 12 quid bottle of organic mineral water on anyone outside of their own social class if they were on fire.

 

Rant over.

Fuck that. I am not a Londoner but I have spent most of my life there.. livedt here for 6 years and worked there for 10. SO I guess I am in a position to talk, it's also 18 miles from me and all my family are there. I am fond of it and can't be having wankers here to make money having a go at it.

Ironically I'm sure Rashid has called Liverpool racist and Anfield a shithole before.

 

I think Liverpool as a city from the times I have been there has more racist overtones/undertones than I have witnessed anywhere in London. It wasn't a million years ago John Barnes was being goaded on the Kop by his own fans.

 

A little bit of self awareness eh? London has 14 million people so of course there will be trouble spots.

Wankers there to make money? You mean everyone?
