I am an Anglophile of sorts, but London is gone for a while.

When property values start dropping precipitously, things will change ASAP.

Follow the money.

Everything I’ve read suggests that London’s future looks more like Lahore!

I have an affinity for the people of Great Britain. I don’t want see what is happening to London, continue.

Cooler heads need to prevail.

This is the utter destruction of an important Western City.

In ten years it will look more like Tehran than London.

Now let’s add a mini ice age and a probable worldwide flu pandemic to the outlook ...

I was in London a couple of months ago and walked from Paddington Station to Hyde Park. Nearly every block seemed to be geared toward Arabic people. Stores, hookah bars, etc. etc.

The decline started when he lost to Clement Atlee.

I was in London recently. It seemed quite unbelievably wealthy and thriving.

I knew Britain was lost when I watched the opening ceremonies to the 2012 London Olympics. There was the overly long Hobbit like exhibition which culminated in the establishment of the National Health Service. No, defeating Hitler wasn’t Britain’s Finest Hour, that was the NHS.
