Best answer: Hampstead, Primrose Hill and a few more. See article

Best answer: Is that the tower?

Best answer: Mmm, no. Far from it. London is 44.9% White British and another 20.4% White European. That makes it 65.3% White people, which equates to about 5.2 million White people living in London.

Best answer: Across the English Channel from Paris.

Best answer: The Second World War devastated much of the East End, with its docks, railways and industry forming a continual target for bombing, especially during the Blitz, leading to dispersal of the population to new suburbs and new housing being built in the 1950s. Many East Enders went further than the eastern suburbs, leaving London altogether, notably to the Essex new towns of Basildon and Harlow and a number of expanded towns in south Essex and elsewhere.

There are, of course, still plenty of white people living there, but it does have the largest population of Bangladeshi's in London.

Best answer: Visit Kensington's night market, I'm going there in the weekend!!! Take a tour around London on a tour bus and take loads of photos. There are many museums around south Kensington and stay safe too. Enjoy your trip

One thing that has been on my mind lately is moving to another country. I've never visited Toronto nor London, but I would like to hear the opinions of those that have visited either or both cities. Which city is better to live? Which is more affordable in comparison? What about the society and the people in general?

Best answer: The museums are all in West London.
So mach to do.

Best answer: Well, this question is badly constructed.

You see, sweetie, Londoners wouldn't know "rural" if it came up and baaa-ed in their face.

Thamesmead is ABSOLUTELY NOT rural.

You have to get out beyond the M25 to find rural.

Londoners have to have a passport and a visa to get out beyond the M25, or the locals shoot them for sport.

Best answer: England is still a country. The address is London, England.
England is part of the United Kingdom - England, Scotland and Wales.

Best answer: They had to put it somewhere, and maybe there wasn't anything available in central London they could afford at the time North Korea was created. I know where it is - I've seen it! It's just a house. As you say, it's not the only embassy that is out in a suburb.

It's close to south Ealing, as a local barber found out one day http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-lon... The aftermath of that little incident is that getting no joy from the police, the embassy then complained to the Foreign Office, who used their centuries of diplomatic experience to magisterially... do nothing. As the barber said, this is BRITAIN, and if we want to have a laugh at Kim Jong-un's expense, there's nothing illegal in that.

Best answer: The residents who are from the Glenfell flats are all being housed in B&B/Hotels at the moment it is not 'all residents of North Kensington'

The place i am considering is Northala Hills towards London UK. Please if you could google it and let me know your thoughts :) - i want to make it really special.. I tried uploading a picture, but Yahoo wont let me.. boo!

Best answer: Because Uxbridge was a town long before it was subsumed into the outer suburbs of London. That applies also to many parts of what now are considered "London". Even Kensington was separate from other parts of London all those years ago. London was originally simply the part around St Paul's Cathedral and the financial area - the "City of London" as it is properly known.

Best answer: Once a group of immigrants settles in a place, others from the same country tend to join them to be with people like themselves. So a community builds up with shops to suit it, and then often the original local people start to feel that it doesn't feel like it's Britain any more and they move out. There are areas like this all over the country. In particular, Southall is close to Heathrow Airport so it was a convenient place to settle. (Hounslow is even closer, so Hounslow tends to get every wave of immigrants there is - it has a lot of Indians, and now it has a lot of Poles too. Where else could you buy Polish food in a shop run by Indians who probably don't even understand the language on the labels? Been there, seen it...)

Talking of Poles, the same thing happened in Ealing A Polish community built up after WWII, though it's not as obvious as the Indians and Pakistanis in Southall, and the most obvious sign of that is the Polish Catholic Church. It used to be Ealing Broadway Methodist Church, the Methodists dwindled and couldn't afford to keep it any more, so they moved in with the Congregationalists in their church on Ealing Green (which is now Ealing Green Methodist/URC) and sold it to Ealing Council, who dithered for years about what to do with a redundant church they couldn't demolish because it's a listed building, and eventually the Catholics bought it. So if you want to experience Mass in Polish, go to Ealing! At least it's still being used for its original purpose.

I grew up in Southall - remember the building on South Road built in Chinese pagoda style? It's been turned into a covered shopping centre but I remember it as the Liberty Cinema, showing Bollywood films. Then videos became available and people stopped going to the cinema, so something else had to be done with it - like that church, it can't be demolished because it's a listed building because of the Chinese-style architecture.

It's a natural phenomenon. Immigrants tend to stick together because they miss home. I certainly remember other pupils at school in Southall who would disappear to India for weeks with their parents to visit family. Things might change as later generations are born who have no memory of "home" except perhaps as somewhere to visit. But for now, it is as it is.
