Billionaire plutocrats? Didn't you say you were a care assistant?

No I didn't.
And I was speaking as a mere part of the greatest city in the world and the only worthwhile part of the UK (except for the Isle of White).

....Are you saying that with a straight face. I'll let the best place in UK thing slide because the best part of a turd is still a turd. But best in the World? Come on not even 4th.
Where's better? Bangalore? Lagos? El Salvador?

I do hope you're joking, because otherwise that's just weird and absurd.
Toyko. New York. Bangkok. Rome(Not my personal taste). Sydney.
Don't rate any of them.
That's f**king mental. I cannot understand how anyone can claim London is better then any one of those cities.

I like London a lot, but New York tops it on my list. Probably San Francisco, too.
Having only seen them in films and photographs they are entirely 2 dimensional.
I'm out. This is a pointless conversation.

Personal preference?
London to me is both the best and worst city, because out of that list, it's the only one I've been to.

How can it be personal preference when you only been to one? It's lack of knowledge and experience of the others surely. Not that it's the best. It's just all you know.
Well it is the only city in the UK isn't it? I mean there's some villages and council estates else where and I heard a rumour there's a couple of gypsy encampments north of London, but really c'mon London is the only city.
But then England is the only country in Europe. The rest was burnt to the ground in the 30 years war.

And I said Yeh fine, it's the best in the UK.
