Somehow Khan will twist these events and blame the police. | |

Or climate change, brexit, past conservative government, cost of living, and if he can't pin it on any of those, he'll fall back on old faithful "racism" | |

Thankfully, we live in another world
A cursory look at Britain just 70 yrs is very revealing
We have allowed ourselves to be swamped
We have not stood up to this curse | |

Hardly surprising when the London mayor supports criminals and undermines the police. | |

Not just London . Birmingham per capita has the highest firearm use in GB. Shootings have become routine . I think there were 4 last week . Sheer madness. | | | |

Few years ago went to Nottingham Indoor Arena , also their skating centre as their main Arena attraction , went to see a band on this occasion for that night .
Female friend of mine tagged along for the overnight stop , I paid for her too .
Nottingham City Centre was great in the day but she had read it was the stabbing centre of the UK and never left her hotel room after dark , stayed there out of fear stories .
Been to Birmingham for shows in their Indoor Arena and later drinks on Broad Street but again some places felt very edgy and careful making my way back to the Hotel later .
Just hope Swansea , its surroundings and attractions never become a no go area .
London for me is a Tourist attraction , a money making enterprise to fleece gullible visitors and make a fortune on motorists who dare to try to enter the UKs Capital City . | | | |

In Bath they are having crime wave not helped by soft sentencing.
This week in their magistrates Court a career criminal received a fine of £370 for a violent assault while a motorst with clean driving licence received a fine of £430 for breaking a 20 mph limit. | |

Spent the weekend there November 2023, it was great, but just far to busy, I prefer Barcelona myself. | |

Best city in the world for what ? | |

Love Barcelona too.
Difference for me is that feel much safer in London than I do in Barcelona. | | | |

I enjoy visiting London.
Yes, it's a bit of a tourist trap and you could come out of there after a week having easily spent thousands, but if you're smart there's plenty of free or reasonably priced stuff to occupy yourself with.
I certainly wouldn't want to live there though. | |
| Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back. |

Culture, art, food, transport, sports and entertainment, architecture, history etc. Variety really.
And compared to many other European metropolises, safe. [Post edited 28 Nov 2024 21:26]

Too fast paced for me to live but that would be the same as any big city.
I agree though, if you put the time in it’s easy to do without spending a fortune. | | | |

Had a long weekend in Birmingham last year.
Had a good time but was in the centre so didn’t come across much strife.
I like London much more. Just a personal opinion- I’m not trying to sell it to anyone. [Post edited 28 Nov 2024 22:10]

But you wouldn’t live there or raise a family in Tottenham,Stoke Newington or Deptford | |

I can think of areas in any city I wouldn’t like to live.
Overall, London is a pretty safe city. Relatively. | | | |

Depends where you're comparing it to. Can you think of a city of 9 million people that's safer?
I'm off there tonight for a show. Really looking forward to it. | | | |
