Yes we'd have probably been hearing about your stabbing on the news.
Is East London a dangerous place to live?

It’s on the internet mate, must be 100% accurate and in no way exaggerated.

It changed enormously in the 20 years that I lived 15 minutes around the A406 from there. I suspect you parents wouldn’t recognise the place.

Inside 'warzone-like' East London housing estate
Residents living on a 'warzone-like' estate have described how drug dealers and prostitutes have invaded their community leaving them feeling like prisoners in their own homes.

Shoreditch got gentrified, the rest of it is still a dump.

Romford has changed a lot in the past 20 odd years as well, wouldn’t say it’s a dump, some areas are quite run down and it’s getting too busy now. I’m in my late 30s and its amazing how much change you notice as you get older.

Yeah Romford got very multicultural in the past 20 years.
No more essex traders more halal superstores and weird fish shops.

It’s a dump where you went. I’d never willingly go there and unsurprised by your story.
Pro tip- in London do not engage the locals in abuse. Best case is what happened today. Worst case is Newham is the last place you ever go.

Romford is most definitely a dump.

I agree
London generally is a tip, I’m originally for Islington and even though it’s generally regarded as a “nice” borough - it’s still a dump.
Feral gangs and useless policing, hated it at the time but very glad my parents moved to Hampshire when I was 15.

I think we're hitting the stage of behavioural sink in a lot of the country now. I was walking out of the pub earlier and was confronted by what I assume was a 9 year old being aggressive to me. I wanted to stomp the little "darling" but just stared him out and walked on.
Any part of London is truly awful these days. It's making me wish for a benevolent dictatorship where bad behaviour is not tolerated.

Your best bet is to move to Peckham or Walthamstow, nice and quiet/safe there/zero crime/thriving knife night life 
Or Birmingham, Liverpool, Manchester, Bradford...

Turn down the wrong street in any major city and you could have a bad day… if you look out of place, you look like an easy target for some..

Numerous areas are absolutely fine I've lived in Richmond, Twickenham and Putney over the past few years. All very safe, very green and really nice areas to live.

Yes vote for me when you get the chance.
I will conduct police and military reforms not seen since Marius.
But can you handle the death toll in exchange for a 99% reduction in all crime?
