Eastlondon South africa?

Tucker I am in East London

I feel your pain mate – it’s full of trendy posh types. I was there one day last year and was quite horrified.

Come to South London, it’s brilliant – all multicultural and multi-ethnic, with proper down to earth people.

You’ll note that a few countries which are republics manage to attract more tourists than the UK, in the case of France it’s well over twice as many tourists.

Well it’s twice as big and besides, they eat lots of Garlic- you must be able to smell that across the Pacific…… 😆

Apparently the weekend celebrations were very popular in France too!

Ooh I’ve just seen your edited post grantway, which you edited after I posted mine. No please don’t come to South London – we don’t need bigots like you stirring the shit in our ace multicultural and multi-ethnic communities. Keep your hatred to yourself.

Hmmmmm – do you think natural resources might have a little to do with that?

Versus

I’m sure if the UK had some of Frances beaches, and mountains, then we’d have a thriving tourist industry that wouldn’t be quite as reliant on the Royal connection…

Ernie did not have you down as a Jerk but ill invite you here before you
accuse myself in being something in which you don’t know !

Oh I apologise for bursting your Conservative bubble

One more reason why Britain is great- i saw this and thought of the bank holiday!

Someone else’s obviously as i don’t remember a bloody thing 😉

Yes Z-11, I think we can safely say that people don’t come to Britain for the weather and beautiful beaches.

Perhaps that’s the solution – countries in northern Europe should keep their monarchies for the tourists, whilst southern European countries needn’t bother ?

But who would have thought that an old stalwart Tory like yourself would be happy to relegate the monarchy to some sort of freak show for the tourists, eh ?

BTW it’s worth pointing out that there isn’t much difference in the weather between Versailles and Buckingham Palace. So if mrmo’s figures are correct I would be interested in knowing why more than 10 times more people visit Versailles than Buckingham Palace – presumably they’re not expecting to see the king and queen at Versailles ? Plus of course it’s a darn sight more difficult to get from the centre of Paris to Versailles, than it is to get from the centre of London to Buckingham Palace. Most peculiar.

EDIT : I’ve just realised that France has more foreigners visiting in one year than it has population

Ernie, these 76m “tourists” are figures skewed by the 50m + Lithuanians, Romanians, Poles and Gypsy’s who are obliged to pass through France on their way to a better life getting pished in parks and committing petty vehicle crime in east London. Forsaking their squalid dachas by the Black Sea for a council house in Leytonstone, paid for by me and you, the hardworking British taxpayer.

How dashed cunning and, well, typically foreign, if I may say, of the French, to claim them as tourists!

I celebrated the Jubilee by doing the downhill at Fort William and camping in Glencoe – managed to completely avoid it, the weather was ace, and yes I felt smug when I heard it was lashing it down in the rest of the country. God must be a republican!

How dashed cunning and, well, typically foreign, if I may say, of the French, to claim them as tourists!

Those are figures were collated by the United Nations, they are for tourists, not foreigners. So it excludes people entering the country on business, or Gypsies passing through on their way to collect free money and large houses with swimming pools from the British taxpayer. If you include all the people coming through France on their way to give Daily Mail readers heart attacks, I’m sure the figure would run into many millions.

Well this is my usual walk taking the dog to the Central Park
and on the way this is what you are always greeted by people chucking
there crap out, but then again should count myself lucky has usually
finding beds or white goods littering the pavements every morning.
Did not see anyone camping this morning maybe due to the rain the night before.
And enjoy the pic of the van of our new scrap dealer

I will try and get some pics before the i go away on my Hols
just hope the weather changes

Yep, it certainly feasts the eyes to see that someone has clearly used their own personal entrepreneurial initiative to make themselves economically active in an area with extremely high levels of unemployment. Let’s hope they make a success of it, eh ?

And I was surprised to see such tidy looking houses in one of the most deprived areas of London – are they mostly asian owned ? In my experience asian families tend to make an effort to keep the externals of their houses and their gardens tidy, even if the don’t have much money.

It’s a shame to see that rubbish but none of it looks as if it’s been there very long, you must have a very efficient council – is it Labour controlled ? Although it is nice to see the hedge clippings bagged up – is that how the council collects it ?

Yup, I can see why you refuse to move out of the area, despite the fact that according to you most people appear to be alcoholics – it’s a small price to pay eh ? Actually any chance of pics of these a alcoholics, you know, what you talked about : “All we have every night is pissed Polish, Lithuanians, Russian and Romanian Gypsies constantly pissed” and “I’m constantly faced with pissed migrants sleeping in the Two parks near my Central Park & Brampton park” because that surprised me.

Eastern Europeans around my manor generally appear to be fairly sober. Mind you go into Central Croydon on a Saturday night and you find plenty of young white British completely out of their skulls. The mess they leave is quite appalling, including piss and vomit. My council tax has to pay for all that to be cleared up. Shocking.

Think your missing the point of the van
will think they are more not to be paying any taxes one bit
will try and pick of the owners

Nope the area within this part of East London was one of the more wanted part of East London to live
Regarding who owns well mostly white/Coloured whom own and mainly rent out to others
or professional persons prospecting on the hope that this part of East london will increase in value.

Asians are mainly found on the other side of Eastham (High st North) where mostly are run down or little done to them.

When in Poland (Krakov) 18years back when visiting friends whom was putting Tesco and British airspace in Poland we had noticed due to around Three generations living in one place.
They socialised within such communal areas has they have no space at home, and thats why we see large gatherings within our parks.
I have no probe with that but being totally drunk urinating whilst kids are playing and leaving there crap every where is that right ? or do you in courage this!

Was raining last night so no one in the parks this morning so no pics this morning

The rubbish being fresh/new Yep every morning you find more rubbish dumped on the corners of the turnings every morning day after day.

Is it Labour controlled mmm yes but spoken to an ex councillor this morning well apparently some years back
the Labour council payed for a 10 year forecast on how to get rid of the poor within EastHam and make it into an affluent area has it once was. And the Labour council actually started at one time to move the elderly out towards Southend and the surrounding areas.

Move out the area! Yup just purchased a Property in Spain in September and once mortgage next year is paid
here in East Ham will be renting out and moving to Woodford near Epping
Spanish home is just a weekend or the odd week break for the moment and then retire early and will move
over there in about 8 years time and let my daughter have the the Woodford home rent free and keep renting the EastHam property in which will be giving us a very comfortable return for years to come

then retire early and will move
over there in about 8 years time

Mind out, son. Then you’ll be a bloody immigrant.

good. don’t let the door hit you on the arse on the way out.

Glad to hear it. Just make sure you don’t take any of your bloody English customs with you. And stay away from their jobs and their women.

In all seriousness, I hope they welcome you with open arms and appreciate what positive things you can bring to Spain.

they eat lots of Garlic

We now consume more garlic than the French. Source BBC cooking programme (may need a pinch of salt and single estate olive oil to be believed).

Thank you Zimbo I normally make a point of avoiding the Brits when abroad.

I am already trying to organise an evening Local crafts market including street performers etc
all locals come first and then others to apply for stalls.
A market that involves everyone and families to socialise

I will not be having a stall

No problems there Tandem, thats for another 8 years so be carful i won’t be shredding your rear tyre out on the trails.

Thank you Zimbo

De nada, amigomio. The more people live away from their homeland, the more tolerant and wonderful the world gradually becomes…

Zimbo

Desaela mucha suerte y felicidad 😉

Spanish home is just a weekend or the odd week break for the moment and then retire early and will move

My parents retired to the Costa Blanca, both deceased now, the level of english written graffiti scrawled all over their lovely little town was quite disgraceful. In fact all the graffiti appeared to be in english – none in spanish. And of course the drunks were invariably British. I found it all rather embarrassing.

I have no probe with that but being totally drunk urinating whilst kids are playing and leaving there crap every where is that right ? or do you in courage this!

No of course not ! As I said, I am appalled by the mess left in Central Croydon in the evenings by young British-born whites, drunk out of their heads. And in the case of Croydon stabbing people appears to be quite popular too. BTW I think it’s important to emphasise their ethnic origin – don’t you ?

Oh yeah and here’s a picture of eastern europeans sleeping rough in London, since you couldn’t take any photos as they are apparently all hiding from the rain.

And here’s a story to go with that picture :

Homeless Poles living on barbecued rats and alcoholic handwash

Quote :

The Guardian spoke to Megan Stewart of Thames Reach outreach team who found the site. She visited on three occasions and found people eating cooked rats, which had either been toasted over a fire or stewed in a pot.

“It was the worst thing I had seen in three decades of working with the homeless,” said Stewart.

Eastern European rough sleepers are often left to fend for themselves. Unless they have worked full-time for a year, migrants from the 10 former eastern bloc countries that joined the EU in 2004 and 2007 do not qualify for welfare such as housing

No welfare payments ? That came as a shock to me – I thought that as soon as they arrived in Dover they were given large amounts of money and the keys to a brand new house. In fact I was sure of it 😕

Any chance of a summation please?

Any chance of a summation please?

Well the OP announced :

Sod the queen, let’s put the great back into Britain- celebrate our great nation and show me your pics that make you proud to be British.

And to summarise, some people appear to be quite proud of being British, whilst others aren’t so sure. There hasn’t been many pics, although I’d be interested in your opinion of my contribution above. BTW I think Britons have much to be proud of. And a few things which are frankly a little embarrassing.

Very sorry to hear But has I said I avoid the Brits like the plague
and thats why I am in a Spanish town

No of course not ! As I said, I am appalled by the mess left in Central Croydon in the evenings by young British-born whites, drunk out of their heads. And in the case of Croydon stabbing people appears to be quite popular too. BTW I think it’s important to emphasise their ethnic origin – don’t you ?

I have zero Knowledge of Croydon/Basildon/Harlow 70’s new towns.
But we don’t have large or if any British persons of any fred or colour other than I have mentioned
Getting totally rat arssed and peeing every where and leaving so much crap every where
has much as they do.
Its obviously a problem you had there and which needs to be addressed
I certainly would not be happy to live there or any place like it to be honest.

The end of the day I nor anyone else ask anyone to come here
and if you can’t afford to support yourself then don’t come.
I may sound harsh but you listen to how the Australians MP’s
talk about migrants in fact you need a lot of money and
we should be saying the same.

Any chance of a summation please?

People who aren’t fans of the Queen have been mega grumpy
People who are fans of the Queen had a great weekend
People who don’t care got on with their lives.

The Jubilee is now all now over so everyone is now getting back to their day to day lives. Until the next Royal occasion and it will be all repeat again.

I think Britons have much to be proud of. And a few things which are frankly a little embarrassing.

Agreed – Far from perfect but in comparison to other nations I think you’d go some to find anywhere as tolerant, with as few social, economic, racial or religious inequities as the UK … not to mention our contributions throughout history in terms of parliamentary systems, the law, art, literature, science, engaging tyranny etc etc.

brief summation

People who aren’t fans of the Queen have been mega grumpy
People who are fans of the Queen had a great weekend

I’m not a fan of the queen and I had a bloody brilliant weekend biking/camping in the highlands.

You bloody republicans. Can’t you just do as you’re told, and admit you were mega grumpy?

I think this has had a good airing, so time to close the debate.
