Your thoughts on Londoners.

The answers in this thread was as expected. I will say that people are friendlier up north but honestly I'd get pissed off if someone was trying to talk to me during every bus journey, so I'm glad Londoners don't talk to each other in that respect

Not in this country. Maybe in the US.

It's sometimes like they live in a different country to the rest of us.

Posted from TSR Mobile


albeit a less racist country
Born and bred Mancunian studying in London -

(and this is more southerners in general)

Rude
Busy - seriously, if one more businessman hits me with his briefcase on the underground I'll push him onto the tracks
Closed - really hard to speak to and make friends with. Y'all hate small talk and you refuse to go into anything deeper. Even your store employees

I agree with what's already been said.... London is like another country. The public transport WORKS and is EXTREMELY CHEAP and all you do is complain about it!

I don't think they can distinguish between accents. They just have a very Londoncentric view of the UK (which they think is synonymous with England).

I'm 100% Londoner, although I do have Irish blood.

I'm just wandering what the "outsiders" think of us, whether negative, positive or indifferent.

I've heard that's easy to spot us!


Look at my boat you mug!
(Lol)

They hate us because they secretly envy us

Lets be honest here, its the most expensive british city to live in and not everyone can afford to live in London... except those living in London
