Would my having been born and raised on Risley Avenue, lived on broadwater farm during the riots, lost my cherry in bruce castle park, worked on paxton road qualify as having 'experienced' the place and subsequently qualified to comment on the slum? Moreso than 99% of the spud forum posters I'd wager.
On the contrary. It's precisely because he was born and raised in N17 that he realises what a **** hole the place is.
I could have also mentioned that I have worked with both the Rowntree Foundation & the Peabody Trust, but didn't want to drown the condescending twonk as I pissed on their 'advisory' post
Wow. Blimey. Then you aren't just a little ignorant of poverty, but you're EXTREMELY ignorant. You didn't happen to do any research by the way? Nope? Too afraid I guess.
Actually I think you will find it was the middle classes were rioting as waitrose had run out of panini's and dijon mustard
How am I ignorant if I have first hand experience you fool? These people are not a down trodden, honest working class. They are part of a self imposed under class. They are where and what they are by choice. Just like pigs given the option of a lawn or mud hole -they will always prefer to wallow in ****. A lazy, ignorant, work shy group who add zero to society at large. N17 is desperately in need of a compulsory sterilisation program, allowed to run until the area is fully cleansed of oxygen thieves. Amen.
