Is London a dump?

    Central London, say from the City to Earls Court are nice and posh, but whenever I go to other parts, even still central, I really find London is a dump; many places feel like Africa or Syria than Europe, supermajority of Muslim or Africans many of whom speak little English. Streets are dirty and smell like pee

    Even I live in a supposedly affluent part close to the Little Venice, I cannot help but wonder how crappy the city is just by walking a few streets east or west. Council housing dotted everywhere next to posh Regency streets, local schools mixed with children from wealthy families and Muslim/Black council families. Local parks filled with Muslim/Black kids running wild and skateboarding, surely won’t pass by at night. Even Notting Hill is like that, a few very posh streets, then the shitty streets and 3rd people around Ladbroke Grove station, then nicer in North Kensington, then a real dump around the bridge over that trash canal. Same goes for Hampstead.

    So is London basically a slum outside of the few ultra expensive bits? I feel like the Muslim/African population is over 60% in many parts if not more…

    UK is a product of crony marxism.
    Sad to see the past fade away.
