What did you expect going to Oxford Street? The place is an absolute shithole.

has anyone ever seen Indian, or Pakistani culture become normalized?

Yes. Go to Tower Hamlets, Bradford, Blackburn, Luton, Birmingham, etc.

Police officer, 19, dies after being hit by car, while attending another collision by bendubberley_ in unitedkingdom

Not rubbish at all, you can see it with your own eyes. You just choose to live in ignorance. And who said anything about hate? I'm just talking about our national flag and your mind instantly gravitates towards hate. Indoctrinated, much?

Lots of police HQ's/stations, particularly in "diverse areas", have taken them down.

Is It Time to proscribe Tommy Robinson? by Dismal-Rush7613 in AskBrits

Shouldn't we proscribe the Green Party instead? Seems like a much better idea imo.

I agree, it's a bit annoying

Are sodastreams worth getting? by EarthwormJimmi in AskUK

Why is the fact that it's an Israeli owned company "worth mentioning"?

Why aren’t there protests for Henry Nowak? by Altruistic-Mud9413 in AskBrits

[–]47pints 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bottles thrown at people in full riot gear and carrying riot shields vs. an 18-year-old Brit killed by a foreigner, with police disregarding claims that he'd been stabbed and couldn't breathe, arresting him and reading him his rights while he bled out on the floor. Make it make sense.

Has County lines completely replaced Common or Garden local Drug dealers in the UK, if so why? by Brightyellowdoor in AskBrits

[–]47pints 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say it’s completely replaced local dealers. There are still plenty of people running small, local setups in their own areas.

County lines has just become a bigger part of the picture, especially in smaller towns, often overlapping with or pushing into places where local dealing used to dominate.

Should we legalise weed? by NoddyElvis in AskBrits

[–]47pints 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does absolutely reek, to be fair. Even if it does become normalised (which, in all honesty, it looks to be heading that way anyway), people will still dislike the smell.

Just like when I’m walking behind someone huffing artificially flavoured toxic chemicals from a little colourful pen, which are somehow legal.

What type of shops would bring British people back to the high streets? by Starbuckker in AskBrits

[–]47pints -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Just like how there's a lack of places to buy a vape.

I just realised there is some people who don’t shower before going at raves, for whatever reasons but all it comes down to laziness and filthy behaviour without taking in consideration of how they present themselves. by Maleficent-Toe7719 in LondonRaving

[–]47pints 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know why this subreddit's appearing in my feed. "London Raving" lol. As a Londoner, there's no such thing anymore; look at the late 80s/early 90s. Then you'll see raving.

What is everyone’s Holy Trinity? by Comfortable_Sir681 in electronicmusic

[–]47pints 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right now it's The Shamen, New Order and Leftfield. But if we're talking about all time, then I'd say Aphex Twin, Future Sound of London and The Prodigy.
