    plus it's full of bloody immigrants....

          Racial ghettos don't exist in London, are you havin' a larf?
          The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

          But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

            sadly sasguru lives in one, so it's hard to see one when you're looking out of one.

                Err... what good work has David Cameron done on this issue?
                He has brought the subject of immigration into being debated, and to his credit he has done so without making sweeping generalisations and scaremongering in the way that Enoch Powell did it. Hats off to him because the PC liberals are now finding it very hard to kill the debate.

                      Not in the way they exist in the North. There is always some interaction between communities in London, because of economic and space pressure.
                      Whereas it seemed to me up north that the communities were completely self-contained.
                      Hard Brexit now!
