I think you have made it up. Any proof behind your suggestion? Edit. I believe the extortionate rent part, it was the second clause I take issue with. Edited by nickgusset (23 Dec 2017 12.14am) If you want proof you can easily visit anyone of these areas, Brixton, Clapham, tooting, balham, new cross, angel, Dalston, archway, Shoreditch, Whitechapel. Full of young professionals who work in the city, the majority come from midddle class backgrounds from other areas of UK, been through uni, young left leaning corbynites, suffer seriously from white guilt. love the idea of socialism while enjoying the fruits of capatalism.

Usually find them sitting in a jerk chicken fast-food place which would struggle to get half a star on a food hygiene rating, but who cares about food poisoning when you're embracing other cultures.

I understand that, but you said they were protesting about gentrification. Anything to back that up?

Thinking about it, strangely you don't seem to find them in quite nice affluent areas like Wimbledon, Richmond, Dulwich, Twickenham, blackheath. I suppose that's the attraction, a bit of rough. I put it down to the massive influence hip hop has had on popular culture, glorifying crime, single parent families, benefits, poor education, the streets, drugs.

Footage filmed from inside the Cereal Killer Cafe shows the angry protests Sun 27 Sep ‘15 04.59 EDT Last modified on Wed 29 Nov ‘17 05.21 EST Riot police were called in to defend the Cereal Killer Cafe in Shoreditch after it was targeted by a large crowd of anti-gentrification activists carrying pigs’ heads and torches. Maybe re read the article again?

There is so much wrong with this post. In fact. Oh dear. ; Where are these anti gentrification protesters that cause gentrification you spoke of?

Paying extortionate prices to rent a council flat on a estate before marching around London protesting against gentrification, the irony, you couldn't make it up.

From the numerous people I have met amd mix with, including friends, friends of friends, different social circles. you've seen the high proportion of young white people at these marches, with white privilege surely these people ain't affected by gentrification, I'm led to belive it's only poor ethnic minorities. We don't see the old Asian or Caribbean homeowners who came over in the 50's at these marches. They're too busy selling up, getting out of London and laughing all the way to the bank to worry about that new avocado and pulled pork pop up restaurant opening down the road.
