There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025

I remember that Kwikky being alright in the late 70's and early 80's when smackheadism and 'totting' from Biddy tip was rife.

Maybe the smackheads had more class back then even though there was a big heroin problem at the time - maybe they have it delivered to the door - so they just rob their ma and neighbours for the money...

^ haha.
When I started a job in Bootle, I drove past the 'Welcome To Bootle' sign, and underneath was a burnt out car, and next to it were two shagging dogs. They should make a red-brick (in tradition with every house being built now) cast of a burnt out car with two shagging dogs next to it as a symbol for the north end. I thought it was quite apt.
