2. Yeah, that’s not surprising. A friend traveled to London the other day and while I’m sure London is a litte safer, I told him to be careful over there as he’s black. They need to get that situation back in order. I understand how people aren’t fond of immigration, but what ever happened to talking about issues?

3. I think anyone living in the U.K. will be happy to admit what a shithole it’s become. Sad thing is there is no light at the end of the tunnel, no hope.

   All we have now is rich and poor with a shrinking bit in between. Why the fuck migrants choose this as their destination of choice is beyond me.

4. Is it really that bad? A friend of mine is moving to Cambridge next week.

6. With few exceptions, the citizens of said countries are objectively safer in the UK than in their homeland.

7. >India is the latest country to issue an advisory for its nationals traveling to the U.K. with the High Commission of India in London warning visitors “to stay vigilant and exercise caution during their travels” in light of recent “disturbances” in parts of the country.

   >The United Arab Emirates, Nigeria, Malaysia, Indonesia and Australia have also all warned their citizens visiting or living in the U.K.

   Save you a click.
