Peterborough! The UK's Worst Place To Live 🇬🇧
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 ต.ค. 2024
- Welcome to Peterborough, supposedly one of the worst places in the United Kingdom. Peterborough is currently ranked 2nd in the list of worst rated places so I spend the day here and try find out if it's true. I arrived with zero knowledge of the place so anything I saw was a complete first impression, I even spend the night here in Peterborough's worst rated hotel to get the full experience. So then let's find out what Peterborough is like! Is it really as bad as they say?
Thank you Timmy for showing me around the city! Check out his channel!

Ben you travelled around Afghanistan, but not Lincoln Road at night?💀
Don’t wanna push it to far do I
Not a lot of difference between the 2 to be fair.
😂😂😂😂😂
First question having watched 1 minute of your video. Where is your girl? Is she in the video?
@JoFuSoA No she's not.
Peterborough turned a friend of mine from lifelong church goer that wouldn’t eat with his elbows on the table
Into a raging crack headed pin cushion
And he only went for the weekend
Whatttttt 😮💨
Are you on drugs?
He made the decision…
Good to see Joe again, you make a good duo, be good to see you both abroad.
Top lad fish
Hey Ben, thanks for taking the time to interview me and my mate. All the best
You bet Josh! Thanks again mate!
Peterborough was my closest City for a few years. There are some incredibly beautiful British villages very nearby just up the A605. Thatch cottages, acreage, working farms, stately homes and the like.
The city centre never had anything other than the fairly modern and well stocked shopping centre
I m also small town outside Peterborough used to go into the city centre for nights out all time about 20+ years ago. was a decent place with lots of stuff to do. Don't even recognise the place any more.
Luton= Andrew Tate 😮😮😮
That sounds beautiful ❤!
Thankfully Stamford is close by. A white refuge.
@@kevinengland7444Hopefully stays like that. Starting to see a change in Oakham lately
Been living in Peterborough before for half year it's terrible full of Muslim gangs
Surprise, surprise.
As a Brit living in Ontario Canada, I can confirm Peterborough Ontario is a shit hole as well. Must be in the name.
I am a born and bred British lives in peterbrough. I havent work since i was 35yo. Now that i am 50 i dont see the point of working and getting taxed. I live modestly, dont wear branded clothes but able to save up from the benefits money i get and could go on holiday to magaluf and tennerife at least once a year. Let the kids who want to work and get taxed but for me i would rather get the free money. There is a reason why immigrants from developing countries want to move in to the UK, free money to start off their life
Harsh 🎉
🤣 It didn't look all bad though
@@ghosthdel3098 I spend my benefits on booze and crack but if I didn't could've saved up to go Ibiza. I'm studying though so not quite as useless as you
Why are you being so rude? what have i done to you? each to their own, this life suits me however it might not suit you as you will have bigger bills with all the booze and cracks you consume. Dont be so rude just because you are hiding behind your computer screen. I hope Karma will get you in this life or next.
There a common theme in all the cities what has ruined them.
Low calibre legal and illegal immigrants from the very worst parts of Europe and the wider world.
Drugs. It is worldwide
Tory governance?
"Diversity"
Cost cutting, corruption, greed, stupidity, loss of common sense, political BS. Take your pic. Party loyalty instead of country loyalty.
That guy cracked me up when you mentioned Luton. He gave up. It's bad here, but not as bad as Luton.
Number 1 🚀
I can confirm this I was once mugged in Luton high street at 6pm! Got a nice trip in the Ambulance! Only needed a few stiches though and I was OK. I only had £20 on me@@BackpackerBen , Another time the biggest Asian guy I have ever seen came across the road right in front of me and said "what are you doing walking in front of me you cunt". Luckily though he left me alone after saying that. One of the three lads ([I'll just say that) grabbed my wallet and I saw that lots of people were walking by so I tried to hold on to the wallet, thinking that "at least one person would do something". Answer was no -nobody gave a fuck and eventually I got punched and knocked to the floor! I was warned though "do you want me to knock you" well no not really, but I was expecting to have some help!
That guy brought a bit of vibrancy to Peterborough though
Luton funnily enough has one of the best bus services in england. Probably the best. With special road surfaces dedicated just for buses (to run fast). The town is okay actually, it's not that bad.
Chavvy shitholes like grantham, havant, grimsby and skegness are depressing. Especially skegness. The local trains are absolute bangers
I know Peterborough well and have visited many other towns in the UK. I would say there are a lot worse out there than Peterborough. Northampton for one is definitely worse.
How strange that the decline of Peterborough has coincided with a mass invasion of flotsam and jetsam from Eastern Europe, including free movement for convicted criminals. What an amazing coincidence!
Now post Brexit you can enjoy some real, proper criminals, once the Nigerians and Somalis flood in. They will make your "Eastern Europeans" seem like Zig and Zag.
The last time I walked through Peterborough city centre I didn't hear one English voice. We went into a pub and, to a man, everyone was Eastern European.
Yeah I never see native English people behaving like yobs, fighting or committing crimes.
Britain is finished.
If you own property here the best move "might" be to dump it before the market plunges and jump out of the country.
If you are young and don't have much equity in the sinking ship, I'd simply abandon the place.
In less than 5 years the demographics will turn what's left into an old folks zombi zoo and let's say you won't have to visit India as they are moving India right up your street.
Britain is finished!
I'm in Chicago and all we think about is getting out of here.
Well go ahead, leave Chicago and move to Peterborough😅@@bondmood
I spent a decade busking saxophone on Cathedral Square. The 80s were fun in Peterborough.
I wish I existed back then
Blimey, never thought I'd see my city on your channel, glad you made it out safe and well brother! :D
So who's to blame?
Government!
If they just put the REAL criminals in jail, make people feel safe, every
City will be nice again
I see a pattern emerging here in these worst places to live..
Immigration.
religion of peace
Yep third world foreigners
Literally majority of the places he's visited so far were just english drug addicts and abandoned buildings
Diversity
As a Londoner, I can confirm this place is the absolute pits, I had to go there in July 2022 to renew my partners passport on a fast track service and had the unfortunate encounter with this depressing place, only Waitrose made it look good 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Well you're be familiar knowing pits.. coming from London
"Waitrose makes it look good"
Least posh Chelsea fan
LOL... been wondering when Peterborough would be on your list. I was born there and moved away when I was in my 20's (a long time ago... ). Hate the place. Would be happy never to return but family is still there.
Ditto. 😢
Although I was not born there I grew up in Peterborough. I left for Bristol back in the 70's around the time of the Peterborough development scheme. I reckon it was around that time that the place started to go downhill. Having said that I actually witnessed an armed robbery right in Cathedral Square there where you began your vlog, I was 15 years old. I lived at the end of Dickens Street mentioned in the video. There were lots of small shops around then but sadly not many remain these days. The city has become very cosmopolitan and any civic pride seems to have evaporated. 😞
I think we all know why these places are high in crime... We just don't want to get cancelled.
Racist. Show your name
You say that as if young englishmen aren't a bunch of criminals too, literally the crime capital of western europe, immigrants or no immigrants makes no difference there
@@billclark2253refugees are disgusting
@@billclark2253 …thank you for proving my point.
Maybe it was your decision to go Brexit.
There's a common theme in these places 😅 Thanks Tony Blair you W ⚓
I think it is more to do with Margaret Thatcher and her council house sell-off schemes. Council houses were sold off for thousands of pounds under their true market value so councils have had to increase business rates through the roof with the consequence that councils have gone bankrupt and the expensive business rates have driven the shops out of the High Street. Sons, daughters, grandchildren and God only knows who have bought family members council houses 'for a song' and pay no rent to the council. Either they own the house outright or they have a small disproportionate mortgage in which case the money goes in profits to a private bank rather than to a council that has legal requirements to provide essential services. It is people such as the working class on the streets of towns and cities such as Peterborough that voted for Margaret Thatcher on the understanding that they were to be given a free house. I have a friend here in Guildford who lives in a council house that his father bought for 14,000 pounds around 1988/89. Today, the same house is worth some 360,000 pounds. He has paid zero council tax for the last forty years, so where is the council supposed to raise money for libraries. health centers, fix potholes and the like? I do not understand what Tony Blair has to do with it though it is true to say that Tony Blair is a real socialist and Roman Catholic born-again Christian with a mere modest 40 million pound personal property portfolio. I wonder what Karl Marx is going to say to him as he tries to enter the gates of his socialist heaven.
In the 1980's Cambridge people would go on shopping trips to Peterborough to the Queensgate centre, and to Luton to the Arndale centre. Safe to say those days are over.
who remembers that saying .....import the 3rd world become the 3rd world...........yeah i laughed at the time too.......
Loving the UK series!!
Just what i need on my saturday morningA
Appreciate it mate!
Had a job interview in Peterborough once, in 2016. It was bleak then, but now... wow😮 glad i didnt get the job 😂
Ben you should do more videos showcasing Britain. I’m sure the British tourist board will love it😂
The only thing I remember about Peterborough was truckfest.... and that was shite.
The #UK is on the ticking timebomb, #abyss #ruination and on the #precipice ....so dire and grim
I was born in Peterborough. It was my home town {I moved for my job}. It was an all white city with good employment prospects with several major engineering companies . It was a railway centre with enormous brickyards. After the war many Italians migrated to the city because it offered good job prospects. Gradually the Indian and Pakistani population grew and some area became no go. My first home was above the Lloyds bank in Millfield. I would not like to be there now. I still have aquaintances there but one doesn't hear many good things said about it. The city began to deteriorate once the Development phillistines got there hands on it.
It could have been a beautiful, crime-free, homogenous fantasy-like utopia.
Too bad that the people chose differently.
You’ll need some Aldi slippers for that carpet or get Athletes foot.…..yeuch…
Too long
So blame the people instead of who is really responsible---capitalism.
@@ChrisP3000xgave me a good chuckle 😂
You need to check out Grimsby/ Cleethorpes. You will be scared for life mate
Summer will pop up
Look forward to it mate @@BackpackerBen
@@BackpackerBen do skegness as well
The councils and government have a lot to answer for. Absolute mis management of funds and council tax . But it’s all going to be ok with the thousands of illegal immigrates coming over and taking up tax payers money and housing that could be used elsewhere where. What’s it costing now, 18M quid a day I believe??
Yes, and don't you want some of these Haitian migrants in the UK? They're all going to be flooding the US now. I'm sure it'll work out just fine. And when Biden apologizes for using the word illegal to describe a murderer, everyone can look the other way. You must say undocumented!
That is only 'chickenfeed' look how much has been spent on HS2 and it has neither reached Birmingham nor reached London. Taxpayer's money has been spent on compulsory purchase orders on land and now the government has lots and lots of spare land with nothing to put on it! I think it is simply ridiculous we voted for Brexit to get our borders back so why can the illegal immigrants not be sent back to the port of departure? France is in the E.U. whilst we are now a 'third country' France is twice the size of the U.K. it is twice as rich and it is a safe country, after all, since the end of the French Revolution, there is not even a guillotine in daily use! Why are these people not classified as economic migrants?
City centre not the worst but if you go out to the estate's like Orton, Breton, Wellend to name just a few it most likely is.
I'd live there without any problem mate
Bald would yes
@@BackpackerBen 💯👍🏻
In usa comparable these places not bad at all. I have seen news reports about being supposedno go areas Islamic people only areas of cities. Is it true can you go to some?
@@expertadvice4uits hard to compare the uk with the us in my opinion because in the us u can buy what would be a mansion for the same price as a 3 bedroom house
Yeah mate. Everybody has a plan until you get punched in the face.
As someone who used to live in Peterborough and works there I can confirm jobs are bad, It does not feel safe, no one is happy or cheery, windows being smashed is normal. I used to live in a rough area where people would chase other people down the street with knives and machetes. Everything is downhill and so not worth being anymore.
I have been told by a native that it’s full of Pakistanians and Gambians
There’s a lot of Polish, Romanians and Lithuanians in Peterborough. The Fenlands have a very high influx of immigrants, one reason why the area is very pro-Brexit
Doesn’t look like brexit did anything as they would want! 😅
I've observed a trend where disadvantaged areas in the United States tend to have predominantly Black or Latina populations, while in the United Kingdom, these areas are mainly populated by immigrants. What could be the reason for this pattern?
I don't think it's about immigrants, I think it's about wealth. Poor majority English areas are just as shit as any other poor majority immigrant area
I'm British born and bred and I do not think immigrants from anywhere are to blame for the shocking state of the country. It's the criminally stupid and corrupt that sit in government and on local councils that are to blame.
They're at an economic disadvantage so can only afford to live in poor areas.
Global Britain leading the way in the world, in misery!😂
I’m a Devon bey living in Brooklyn, NY, I spent 3 years on Lincoln Rd/Millfield, Peterborough, crazy memories, lots of diversity both good and bad. I’ve heard a lot of the High Street is dying like a lot of the UK !, sad. Britain in a decaying state of decline😩
Do u like it in Brooklyn?
I'm the other way round mate!
Ben: Travels to the most dangerous places in the world. Also Ben: I ain't filming in Peterborough, it's too dodgy lol. Like you said mate, sometimes you just have to trust your gut feelings!
Spot on 😆
Man what a dump so glad I left London 5 years ago and moved to Spain
lucky you!
@@stvnlake yes before brexit, now it’s a bit more difficult but can be done
There's worse places in Peterborough than the ones you went to. Shamrock Park with all the syringes in the bushes. Orton Centre, Bretton, Westwood Estate. It's a crap hole.
The 2021 UK census for Peterborough shows that only 71% of Peterborough residents were born in the UK and of those that were not, 12.8% of Peterborough residents born outside the UK have lived here for less than 10 years.half of the 12.8% have lived in the UK for less than 5 years.
44 years I've lived in different parts of the UK. I've been hit with a crowbar, stabbed, beaten by a gang of pissheads, all of them white British. Never to date have I been verbally abused, assaulted or stolen from by an immigrant.
Should have gone to some of the suburbs like Werrington, Paston, Bretton and particularly Orton Goldhay
Come to Huddersfield mate like a ghost town now every shop is gone 😂
But it's so nice and diverse! I always understand Pizza Bra when so you say Petersborough. 😄
Used to be a great Town - not being racist but went in to deciine and the atmosphere changed once it become a hub for mass immigration.
is it the architecture and landscape that make a country, no of course not, it's the people. Take the English away from England, and you've got a place I never went to visit. Signed from a NZ whose ancestors came from that once beautiful place.
Ben you need to go to Ashton-Under-Lyne even the charity shops are closing down.
Even in places like Leatherhead in Surrey, the charity shops are closing.
I lived there for a few years and yes.... it is definitely a shit hole.
Totally agree with you. That's why I don't go there anymore.
We have a Lincoln Road here in Miami Beach 😂
And let me tell you it’s a complete 180°
Peterborough looks more boring than anything. I don’t know if it looks that bad though. There are places here in the US that are much more rundown than this.
"In the ghetto"
He'd be better off wearing a hidden body cam and actually go to these bad areas, you'll definitely encounter some issues 😅
I'd bet London is the worst dodgy place in the UK?😂
East Londonstan is gone
Come visit Norwich. There's nothing bad to say about it unfortunately 😆
Yes I’ve heard awesome things!! Home of Alan 👑
So what's the theme with all the worst places to live, Peterborough, Luton, Bedford etc?
Bedfords alright not in the top 10 😂
From what I remember, Luton's had a poor reputation for at least 20 years. I've never been there, so can't comment. I've never been to Peterborough either.
They are all East or East Midlands
Thanks for another fantastic video. You have a great video voice. Always clear and understandable.
Can you start asking people "why" when you interview them? Why do they think the cities are crumbling? What can be done?
Noted for next time. Leaving the country now need to get out 😆
I don't doubt it! Be safe! Can't wait to see where you go next. Be sure to enjoy some of it, too! ❤
Should of gone to the Orton Goldhay estate in Peterborough 😮
Saddest looking McDonalds ever😢
My employer sent me on a six weeks course in Peterborough some 20 years ago. I didn't like it then, but I thought that that was just me. At one point though I got talking to a waitress who had moved there recently because her boyfriend had got a good job there, but she was of the same opinion as me.
You are never alone 😊
Back in the 90's Peterborough was a great place to visit, went there often. Sad now.
You import the third and second world and you get the third and second world. Peterborough is Islamabad/Warsaw and has certainly suffered the killings and general crime that has brought. The last time I walked through the city centre I didn't hear one English voice. We stopped going into the city well over a decade ago. Having said that, in comparison to places like Walsall, Grimsby, Slough, Jaywick, Manchester, areas of London, and so many other places around the UK which truly are shameful shitholes, Peterborough gets a raw deal. Peterborough isn't grotty or decaying, it's just bland. The only thing it has is the splendid cathedral which is easily one of the finest in Europe. It has the largest arched doors in Europe. Most English cathedral towns are historical and attractive. Peterborough isn't. I don't know why the clubs have closed, but I do know London is so close by train that's where they all go.
What are the demographics of Peterborough?
I would love to see Liverpool City in your vlog Ben
Summer 🤝
Liverpool is awesome
Manchester please
@@BackpackerBenBen try Bolton, you won't be disappointed....
Ok i lied! But it will provide a good insight. 👍
No one is mentioning the obvious reasons for the decline .
Asians
From all these recent UK videos you're releasing it seems 90% of the UK is a terrible place to live lol.
Should’ve also shown the shopping centre and riverside area. Lots of new luxury apartments going up, likely trying to cater to London commuters. 48 minutes on the train and you can be at Kings Cross. I think that’s what separates Peterborough from lots of these places up North or on the coast. There are actually job prospects here.
The last few videos have been depressing , don't care to watch alley ways and garbage all over the streets, boring.
There is no such thing as a proper English towel anymore. That is the problem.
Just cotton on?
My Dad was born in Peterborugh, he moved to Kent at a young age... I wonder if he knew... lol
Also, at 9:10 did he say Milfield? or Milf Field? If it's the latter it sounds like an interesting place... 😆
I like the honesty about the problems in the British society! Greetings from Macedonia!
25 years ago got off the train got in a taxi and the driver said "you've got your queen we've got your country" . First visit.
Beard?
You know that ...
Overpowering spicy aroma?
🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬No-one asked us.
@@garth8979better then bangers ans mash and your blood pudding
Once again with these types of videos a lot of self censoring going on, Peterborough and in particular Lincoln Road has been destroyed by mass immigration to the point the locals won't go there anymore, the theme can be repeated almost exclusively in all these places you visit yet the elephant in the room is always the same!
I remember Lincoln road before the immigrants it was dead... I mean DEAD. Yes immigrants get put in sht housing and don't necessarily respect their area because of that, then you have the drugs gangs... But say what you will about Lincoln road, it's full of businesses, people sitting out on cafes, you are painting it as if they ruined it. It was ruined way before. The pubs were gone by 2005, most of the shops were gone before the immigration spike. I find Lincoln road totally safe in the day...
Ben, you should come to Coventry. It has the highest crime rate in the UK. I'm doing a PhD in Coventry right now. Most nights, I hear screaming and violent abuse on the street outside. Despite that, I like it here.
We were there 3 days ago but just spent the night there. Will try get there for the summer
Looks a lot like my city. Just this week there was an arson fire in broad daylight at an old house, office, then another homeless person found dead at the local landfill. Meth, fentanyl are to blame, huge rise in property crimes. Homeless community is growing fast as the cost of living crisis gets worse. 😢
So Chyna pumping in fent into your country too, eh?
Not nearly as bad as some places Ben’s been
🤝 few dodgy streets but yeah defo not the 2nd worst 🤷🏼♂️
So interesting - I enjoy your channel and this content and found P'Borough a really interesting place to shine a light on. The interview with the two lads at night was insightful and from my experience having lived in Peterborough a long time ago was on the money. I thought it was pretty bad then but to see the decline is frightening. That street with all the nightclubs used to be buzzing - 5th Avenue was the place to go - All things fade away.
worked and lodged in peterborough 50 years ago it was a lovely place back in the day
Most places were.
That 1st kid interviewed is just ignorant. If a town has a library, it's the best town in the country. Don't go out at night if you're frightened. Spend your day in the library reading about the Silk Road of the 13th century. If you're in the United Kingdom, you're a day away from a million great things and places to learn from.
True but realistically, most teenagers/young adults especially in this day and age won't find much amusement in reading
Why was the first young guy trying to talk like a Jamaican?
Street innit!
You should get yourself to Leicester, just and hour from Peterborough mate, now that’s grim
You need a passport to enter Leicester.
As if anyone here has lived in every other place in the UK and can make a meaningful comparison….
I didn’t know Bournemouth was 9th on the list. I quite like it here in the Summer with all the beaches 😮
Never been. Heard it’s alright but got bad places
@@BackpackerBen Well worth a visit and a video of your take on it. Wendall did a video there a while ago.
When we went last year, some sicko nutter was beating one off on the beach looking at seagulls
I dunno, to be honest it looks like a beautiful town compared to Luton. I wouldn't mind visiting Peterborough to see the cathedrals.
Isn’t Peterborough a victim of unfettered immigration and the criminals that then lay roots? They had the criminal Labour MP at the helm too - Onasanya.
Peterborough has been led by the Tories for years who've sold off a lot of assets.
Peterborough is a lot better than some shitholes in the U.K. e.gBrum Sandwell Preston, Stoke on Trent ( tunstall burslem longton 💩 etc💩) ilford newham East Ham , South Shields 🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈
Millfield Road is 9% white, wow
Peterborough isn’t the second worst place to live in U.K. And never has been. These surveys you are quoting aren’t based on reliable statistics Ben. They are just based on subjective feedback from people that don’t have anything they can compare it with. Based on statistics, Middlesbrough has more than twice the crime that Luton has. And it also has much higher crime than Peterborough. And for many years Middlesbrough has been deemed to be the most unsafe area to live. Nobody in the north or in Scotland would ever look at Peterborough or Luton and consider them no go areas. I think you should look at rankings based on reliable statistics, not just what people vote on forums
Thanks again mate! See you next time! 👍👊
Yes fish 🤝🙌🏼
Great to meet you Joe 🙌🤝
Like all your videos but I just don't think these UK ones have a lot of legs. By all means show how dilapidated parts of it are but every town has these parts and zooming in on a siren as if that is some indicator of squalor is a bit disingenuous and sensationalist.
You said it about Plymouth, Bristol, Weston Super Mare and some other places. Looks more like a clickbait to me. Looks like kinda sport- Let's take a random town in England, look for its most poor and violent slum and give an impression the the entire place is actually like this.
they are funded by UK government to show the UK in negative light - to reduce the migration
Yes, this is not meant to be a balanced review of the places, I guess most people are nowhere near as interested in good things as they are in bad and TH-camrs know it.
Except it was rated the second worst place to live in the UK. I think Ben was fair, the locals were slating the place. The UK is a shit hole unless you are rich and can live somewhere like the Cotswolds
@@SilverfoxJB I heard it's more boring than bad proper... we don't have the criteria for this list.
The fact that Bournemouth appears in the top 10 but not Grimsby or Blackpool is not a great indicator.
Peterborough is twinned with Luton. The demographic gives you the answers.
please bring Joe with you to the back streets of some country in Asia like you do with Kat. I think he would be a good laugh to see!! 😂
Finally, someone who is not afraid to list the 10 best vacation spots to visit in England! 🤣🤣 I was thinking I should spend my vacation money on London, Paris, Rome, NYC, Barcelona, Thailand, Dubai, or even Tokyo, but why when I can visit the places on Ben's list and take lovely pictures of my bum, because they tell me to! 🤣🤣 Just another city in England that has fallen into ruins, slowly crumbling down to look like some of the worse places that Ben has visited, outside the UK! SAD!
Some people don’t like it mate but this is the reality of the UK. Someone got to show it
Nowhere in the entire world will you find so much within such a relatively small geographical area than the UK. We have it all - mountains, lakes, rolling hills, canals, flatlands, wetlands, beaches, islands, rivers and forests. It is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful countries on earth. We have a temperate maritime climate where weather extremes are rare [although summers are getting hotter]. We are green 365 days a year. Contrary to British whining, it actually doesn't rain all the time. It rains more in Europe, Seattle and even Sydney. We have remarkably varied architecture-ancient, medieval and ultra-modern. Castles and grand stately homes are everywhere. We have some of the world's oldest and greatest cathedrals. We have houses over 1,000 years old. We have Roman ruins and some of the world's best and most famous museums. We have multiple world famous sporting events, the world's most important football league and world famous music festivals. We have two of the world's most prestigious and oldest universities with Oxford often being voted No 1 in the world rankings. London is often voted the No.1 global city and gets more visitors than virtually every city on earth. English villages, particularly in the Cotswolds, draw visitors from all over the world. We are only 21 miles from continental Europe and all the wonders it has to offer. All this has been ruined, since 2000, by the importation of 8 million low calibre immigrants from the very worst parts of Eastern Europe, North Africa, Africa, Middle East and South Asia and beyond. Great Britain, notably England, has become an angry and dangerous third world shithole. Don't ever come here.
I was in Peterborough in 2011, seemed ok, its gotten bad pretty quickly 😂
Honestly it doesn’t look to bad at all, don’t know what the fuss is about, been to much worse places
I’ve defo seen worse but it’s defo got issues
One of the reasons we are in decline is because of 'others' who have made their home here. Others that don't belong here. Others that are here in too great a number.
I think the incompetency of the people running the UK is the biggest reason.
Enoch was right
The 'others' didn't cause the economic crash of 2008. The 'others' didn't vote in a government who then imposed deep austerity on the nation, making massive cuts to public services. The 'others' didn't vote to leave the EU another self inflicted wound because some people think its 'others' who are the problem. Its not 'others' who caused chronic underinvestment in local services. It wasnt 'others' who hiked our energy bills and caused the cost of living crisis. it wasn't 'others' who then elected as PM someone who crashed the economy in her short and disastrous term. it is not 'others' who will do nothing to close tax loopholes and offshore tax havens where the real wealth of the country can be syphoned off and hidden. But one thing these wealthy tax dodgers appreciate is useful fools who will point the finger at 'others' while they scam the country of its wealth.
I checked the demographics and it says 90% white. I think maybe its the immigrants maybe the society has degenerated. Become more lazy addiction to drugs from a young age and easy access to drugs etc. Most probably most immigrants are working harder than average white people there.
@@spacelab777yawn
we all know which part of Peterborough is bad (lincoln road) and we all know why
It’s great to see Mr.Fish! He’s such a cool dude. And I’m happy to know you are travelling together. 😊
lincoln road ...what a shi.....hole ....luton same !!!! hello from beautiful poland...we use to go clubing to peterborough it was good ...now is DEAD !!!1
I like your videos as they give an honest view on modern places in the UK and around the world, you are also fairly neutral and sensitive in regards to the many local issues, a bit of rawness and grittiness is fine so please carry on filming!
You got it 🤝 thanks 🙏🏼

Ben as you and fish would know , most of the places that have a bad rep have bloody good people in them , it’s the fact most people and families in the uk don’t have a pot to piss in, social and economic issues aware bringing these places down so only ones ti blame are government both national and local . The money local council get gets spunked up the wall on needless projects and they forget about the public living in them , as I’ve said before I’m from the Muff also but I also lived in Corby not too far from Peterborough, little steel town where they moved Scottish down for the steelworks , then closed it all leaving a town with little work and lots of working men’s clubs 😮 I think Corby has improved due to its central location making it a great hub for businesses but social issue there remain like when I lived there
This is such a depressing place. First thing you see are the signs of rampant addiction. I have witnessed human trafficking, rape in alleyways, multiple over doses, suicides, kidnapping and torture. I have never heard if anything goid coming from this place. It killed all my friends that went there inside and turned my sister into a hardcore drug addict i can never see again
How did you witness all of that? Affiliation?
