Second paragraph: What an earth are you talking about?

'Scantily clad women' that made me laugh so much, what is this a football fans forum or mumsnet.com

Terribly sorry, I confused the forums. I must correct.

Cor, see the jugs on those birds. Yeah, I'd give 'er one. I reckon she's a right slut. I even liked the that foreign bird, just the sort of immergrant we need. *burp*.

My, I feel better now.

I’ve been trying to think of anyone I know up here who has told me they have never been to Brighton and can’t think of anyone. If anything the reverse is true and it is seen as a big day/weekend out. Perhaps it is you that is believing the stereotypes. Lots of people from around the country love the culture and cafe life Brighton has to offer. Anyway this thread is just a platform for both sides in the perpetual NSC war to make cheap digs at each other so I am out of here.

Fair enough, I was going by my experience of time in the Midlands when the only person I met who'd been to Brighton had grown up in Dorset.

You read this thread and you'd think it was on the Holmesdale site. So much bitterness towards Brighton, can't be just be proud our town?

In my experience the most bitter anti Brighton types are over 50 born and bred in Brighton who look through rose tinted glasses at a ‘lost’ Brighton. We have many of those friends😀

I find up here that many haven't been to London and certainly don't think there's anything beyond London.

a galaxy far far away
more like a deluded oasis in the UK, a bit like a little London set up totally unaware of its surroundings

Oasis a fairly good description. Especially when you look at a political map of the south east

The arse end of Hangleton
Yep



"Knees up Brighton town"
"I'm just going into town"

Plus it's the City of Brighton and Hove (but as per the snidey Independant example there has to be a picture of the pier in the background so everyone knows where it is...)

Next you'll be calling it Brighton Pier :facepalm: I can only assume that you're a DFL.

Wahay, nice bit of casual racism on My Thursday lunch hour, the mask slips on the tolerant,educated left.

Where was the racism? I'd be careful of accusing people of being racist when there's no racism being used.

Brighton has always been a satellite of London, ‘ London by the sea’ .It’s excellent commuter links have meant a lot of trendy luvvies have made it their home, like London it has become an echo chamber. The Greens have turned My Town into a shanty town, the place is a haven for scruffy,smelly students and FBPE loons, sneering down their noses at people that had the nerve to vote to leave the busted flush of the EU.

A tabloid overreaction.

You call Brighton 'my town' and then refer to it as 'London by the Sea', which no self-respecting Brightonian would ever do in a million years, whatever the circumstance.

We have our problems, like everywhere else, but I still love it. And always will.
