I'd stick about 20% on the 9 million to take account of all the illegals

That must've been a terrible experience Les I suppose you were hospitalised with shock for a couple of days. My visits generally involve travelling rail to Paddington, undergound to Fulham Broadway then a short walk to the home of the Pride of London - if you time the journey right you won't see too many of the germs you mention :D

I lived and worked in central London when 18 and 19 years of age.

I avoid at all costs going anywhere near there now....it just :censored: me off too much seeing all the flotsum and jetsum that inhabit the place, and nearly as bad....all the rich Middle-Easterners swanning round like they own the bloody place - which they DO. :angry:

So, to all amongst the expanding population, please just STAY there.

:Shower: Maybe its because I'm a Londoner, that I love London town.

I was born in Greater London. And worked there till I was 20. When I took the mrs around the sights at christmas I clocked the changes you mentioned.
