    Will the Mackems qualify to visit Milan if they stay third in that table? :afro:

    Why does it name London in the list then 6 other places in London as well?

    Having Hackney in there is retarded, it's the most popular area in London, and Camden and Brixton are massively sought after too, really don't know how 3 of the best areas in London can get in there and utter ****holes in London like Barking, Dagenham and Harrow can escape.

    Grimsby always wins list like this the fact it's not even in the top 50 and nice places like Bath and Bristol are in there is rather bizarre...

    Shudders at Ilford!

    If you ever want to see a live Jeremy Kyle Show go to Morrisons in Dagenham at 10am ish on a Saturday!

    Newham isn't much better either!

    Windsor 2nd?!?!?! Wtf?! Windsor is pretty damn nice, racecourse, great eating, drinking, river, sights, shopping.

    Maybe they meant Slough. Same postal address....

    I really think that this pole was voted for just by inhabitants of Essex, that would explain why lovely areas like Edinburgh, Windsor, Chester, Bath and Bristol are in there, and all the Essex hellholes like Harlow, Grays, Basildon, Tilbury. Barking and Dagenham have been mysteriously omitted...

    But that's only because the people who live there could be bothered to vote for it!!!

    It's literally just random. Folkestone, Dover, Margate are dreadful dumps on top of the crud you mentioned. Southend, Ipswich, Peterborough, Swindon, Taunton. I think this poll - bar 3rd which is unerringly accurate - is just garbage.

    17th - London. Hmm, so the entire of London is the 17th worst place to be?

    Rotherham is missing from that list. An absolute **** hole of biblical proportions.
    London - hell on earth. Populated by foreigners, scumbags and people that think they are the centre of the universe.
    Sunderland - You don't need to be a Newcastle fan to realise what a dump the place is. The nicest part - Seaburn - you pass on your way out.

    Seaburn's great as long as you're looking at the sea. Turn around and goes downhill rapidly.

    The list is scattered with bad choices.

    Bournemouth is a great place to live. Best 3 years of my life down there (not a football place back then, late 80's).
    Bath is just a gorgious place.

    Went to Bath this summer. Stunning place and area. That list has some strange bloody choices. Can't see Coatbridge or Methill in this list. They are two of biggest ****holes in Britain.

    I demand a recount, 1st should be Leigh Park (biggest council estate in Europe), followed by Paulsgrove (where they attack Paediatricians), Havant, Skatesmouth and Cosham.

    I worked in Northampton temporarily, on a short contract in 2006 if I remember right. It was like living inside a dustbin, everywhere stank and everywhere was dirty. I was doing some intel work for vice and I was constantly in the presence of junkie whores and toothless pimps.

    Luton's surely better than that!

    Just passed through Bath on the train, absolutely beautiful city and surrounding area. 7th worst place in the country apparently...
