I moved down this way from south London 40 years ago and it was a pleasant, fun area. What’s happened to the place?
We got out. After all the years of green mis management and inviting every mountebank to come an stay in the city we could bear it no longer. At least Phelim Mac Cafferty got chucked out on his ear at the last election 🤣
