London is a place that people from all over the world want to call home, but somehow it never gets to feel 'homey'. There are ingrained snobbish attitudes toward neighborhoods and schools that are perpetuated regardless of disconfirming facts. When I came to London I was warned about 'east of -Adelaide' yet ,compared to many North American cities , EOA is a solid working class community. The untapped treasure in London is it's diversity. Anyone who thinks it a Wasp town needs to look around. The problem is that ethically and linguistically diverse members of our community lack a voice and presence.
