This idea of Britain that was irks me. I’m a SE London Council Estate ex alumnus. Almost exclusively white. The estate next to mine was the one where the killers of Stephen Lawrence came from. A short distance from the then offices of the National Front.
Years after leaving 1/5
Streets where kids roamed free.
Milk on doorsteps.
Close knitted communities.
No machetes, no no-go zones.
No fear, no chaos, just normal life.
Britain before the fall.
Who else misses this Britain?
