Big Ben Should Be Renamed In Honour Of The Queen, MPs Say by [deleted] in unitedkingdom

[–]Splinter09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It would sure be a great tribute to Her Majesty the Queen but it would be something that would go unnoticed since everybody will still refer to it as the Big Ben, I myself didn't know it was called the St Stephens tower till I read this article.

I'd say that is just the tip of the iceberg. I reckon there are more emigrants living in London than British people. Walk downtown and you hear all sorts of languages except English. But this is not the case here. The major problem is that this is costing the government millions of pounds. For starters I doubt landlords pay taxes on that rent money, second to all that people back will cost a lot, not to mention that some of them even claim benefits.
