Nominative determinism

Quoted from Humbercod

I wouldn’t put Hull or Lincoln down has being a large city so that leaves only leave Sheffield. But do enlighten me to the no go non ethnic Area’s that YOU implied.

Hull has a population of just over 300,000- Newcastle's is for sake of comparison 320,000.
My job took me into parts of the North Hull Estate where you wouldnt go alone-particularly after dark.
Hull's ethnicity is close to 90% white British.
I was also based in Belle Isle in Leeds-another area with over 90% British white ethnicity but sadly beset by huge problems with drugs and unemployment.
The whole point of this reply is to show that your reaction is lazy, triggered stereotyping. The problems in cities particularly in the north are a direct result of central government policies particularly those relating to local authority funding and the care sector.

You said WHITE!!!!

Hulls population is 250,000 not large by city status!
Hulls Metropolitan area population doesn’t even make the top 20 where as Newcastle is ranked 6th.
I worked in Hull for 3 years around 20 years ago I take it you’re talking about the Bransholme estate? I’d heard the rumours about the area before working there and I can honestly say it’s a load of bollox. It’s basically a larger version of the Nunny absolutely no areas or streets are classed as unsafe. There is some great people living there but like every estate there’s a handful of problem families.
I’ve also worked Leeds, Bradford, Halifax, all around West Yorkshire really, going into Burnley and Blackburn on occasions, Chapel Town and Meanwood were certainly rough in Leeds and once I got stopped by the police in Meanwood late one night, I was told by the police that it wasn’t safe to even be driving around there.
You talk about stereotyping but the facts remain every so called no go area I’ve encountered in my real life experience has a common denominator, you can sugar coat it as much as you want but it’s basically denialism.

Pal you’re thick as excrement I never said their was!

Chiangmaimariner, I owe you an apology. I am sorry.

Grammar police alert! Great input👏

If I was talking about Bransholme I would have said Bransholme. Try reading before your eyeballs bulge out of your  head.
NORTH HULL ESTATE.
Every no go area I've encountered does have a common denominator-well certainly since 2010. They are all victims of Tory government policies.

Do you not see the humour in telling someone they are thick as pig excrement, whilst using incorrect grammar?

Out of all the cranks, trolls, and nutters on social media the Grammer police have got to be ranked as one of the saddest, but fair point...👍

My point was one intended with humour. I’m the last person to be lecturing anyone on grammar.
Besides we disagree on most things, but grammar doesn’t need to be one of them.

It’s good to disagree Sandford no problem with that I’m usually in disagreement on many subjects due to the political make up of this forums posters. And to be fair I did find your post humorous but a bit of a cheap shot considering it was -
A. Your first input on the topic of conversation.
B. That fact I was already in a minority of 1 you still felt the need to pick up your pitchfork (metaphorically speaking) and join the attack for what... a typo error.

Anyway no offence taken as I gauge that you and the rest of the posters are generally good people.

Not really a typo, however it’s ok to make mistakes but a bit rich and incredibly stupid when denigrating others has thick has excrement
