I've lived in London all my life and I can confirm the depravity and shithole(ness) of this place. I live in Finchley Road which is all white, nice and close to any area that's worth living in London. Anything, anywhere south of the river Thames is not worth going. Full of queers and blacks which brings down the whole tone of the place. London is full of disgusting little birdcage-like houses which is FAR more expensive than your average American house. I might take flak for this but the (white) Europeans that immigrated here brings it up for me a bit. The Asian and Africans who live south of the city turns it into Islamabad or Nairobi where they're usually from.
London does have a wicked night life if you know where to go. Slamming this place is one thing, but it's the best place to live in England. Any smaller town is usually stack with decrepit town centres, inbred teenagers sitting around on stolen peddle bikes with pasty faces and ear studs, just generally being a fucking nuisance. The Southwest of the county is still lovely, leafy and white and completely worth visiting. However, you have to deal with narrow-minded small town mentalities. It's usually families that can trace their roots back 20000000000000 years to within a square mile of where they live. The whole ancestry has also never been outside that square mile so they know fuck all of life and the real world outside their little closed communities. One can also not help but notice the uncanny resemblance everyone in the town shares with each other. Almost like they all share the same father.
The English language doesn't allow me strong and enough adjectives describing the North of the country and the industrial drunken wastelands it is. That used to be true blue heartland, until football and drink replaced the culture it once had. Now they're all on the dole (benefits) or work in factories (like father like son) reading tabloids, idolising scratch-an-sniff armpit celebs and drinking away whatever little they earn in railway pubs.
If you all want to know more about England, just ask. Always happy to teach unsuspecting people about this muddy island.
