The whole experience was miserable. The advertisements about London are vastly exaggerated.
We were told that it would be a great experience. Clean streets clean neighborhoods a friendly atmosphere. But we were extremely misled.
It wasnt even the people that we met first it was the smell. The smell of urine and fecal matter as soon as you get out in the streets. Touring or just walking around The smell is everywhere.
There are so many police strapped with guns and armor. You would think this would make you feel safe but it doesnt.
This literally reminds me of the book "The children of Men". Its terrifying experience there are so many people. So many migrants its insane.
Living on the streets its so crowded and so dangerous.
A friend of ours that lives here had to hire some security just so our family could walk down the street to go to a local restaurant.
We did not feel safe like I said our children didnt even feel safe. The staring and glaring of adults just looking at your children was so unnerving.
This would have been the first time I actually missed not having a gun on me.
There are so many people that will come up to you. Begging you for money even pushing or harassing you if you dont give it to him. Theyre shouting everywhere and screaming.
Theres roving mobs of religious groups. They are everywhere and I mean everywhere. A group of women covered entirely from head to toe. You couldnt even see their eyes were yelling something at one of our daughters. One even tryed to grab our daughter and yell at her. But my wife wasnt having it and shoved the lady away. Before I even realize what was going on.
Every building is either sprayed up or defaced.
Eventually we got away from the main part of London and started heading a little towards the outskirts. Things were a lot calmer but they were still on edge.
We were talking to some of the locals about what had been going on. So many of them have reported that their country is dying. The government doesnt care about their citizens anymore. One lady started to tear up saying that everything that was special to her is now disappearing.
We soon found out that on the outskirts of London a lot of the small towns. Have become segregated to the point. Where I fella came up to us and asked why we were here.
I told him we were on tour we were just looking. He explained to us that its not safe at night. There are call booths all over the town and if you get any trouble you need help. Dont be afraid to push the button.
For the safety of this small town we will not be mentioning the name. The people during the day were extremely nice. And had some very nice quaint little restaurants. There was even some things for the kids to do.
Overall our experience in London wasnt the best at all. That city is literally dying from the inside out. And I dont know who or what is letting it happen. But it must be entirely on purpose to let a beautiful city such as that come crumbling down.
We wont be returning and we dont recommend it.
If you happen to travel to London with your family. Please be very safe is not safe for women or children alone. Make sure you know somebody that lives there that you can trust to visit. Everything there is a scam and controlled by gangs.
Oh and dont bother asking the London police for help. They will not do anything most of them walk away. And one of them even said that we were the problem for visiting.
