This is London Quotes

But if you wanna go into one of those gross last of the English pubs we can.”

“It’s like this: Russian and Ukrainian people hate Polish and Lithuanian people. Eastern Europe peoples hate Indian people. Everybody hates the black people. Whites hate everyone . . . That’s just the way it is.”
― Ben Judah, This is London: Life and Death in the World City
