I Visit 'NO-GO' Zone in UK's Worst City To Live - Peterborough

- Peterborough has been voted amongst the Worst Places to live in the UK for many years now, this ancient cathedral city holds some of the highest crime statistics for any UK city. As we explored the city and residential areas of Peterborough including the notorious 'NO-GO' Zone and 'Red Light' area of Peterborough - Lincoln road, by day and night. I was Shocked to see so many abandoned places, Homelessness, Crime and Poverty on the streets of this UK City. #britain #uk #poverty #crime #england #reallife #Peterborough #nogozone #onthestreet #depression #homeless #abandonedplaces
Peterborough has been rocked by negative headlines for years, I headed to Peterborough to find out for myself whether the bleak reputation portrayed by the media was warranted... What I found truly shocked me, the crime rates where some of the highest in the UK. One area of Peterborough that I visited (Millfield Area) had 524 street level crimes (reported) last month! 206 of those were violent crimes...This notorious area of the UK is often labelled a NO-GO Zone by locals and journalists alike. I headed to this notorious crime ridden, red light district at night to gain a full understanding of how the people of Peterborough feel living in the Worst Place to live in the UK.
A quick google search of the Millfield area & Lincoln road in Peterborough will overwhelm you with negative headlines! The amount of crime, poverty and deprivation to be found in this small corner of the City is shocking. Peterborough City Centre is filled with beautiful medieval buildings however once you enter the outer areas of Peterborough the feeling quickly changes.

I used to live there for a couple of years. It’s bad. The street you were walking - groups of 6 (man/kids) just randomly stand outside the off license shops like hookers in Dam. No one respects the street signs and everybody just acts like in a zoo. Istanbul grill is the bomb though so you kinda get used to it. Never had a problem and I was always on my own.
Yes the groups of blokes outside every other takeaway! Big groups too! Mental place. Thanks for watching and the comment 👍 I think people think it's dramatised but they have no idea!
@@JoefishJ I was raised there, it is a shithole I moved out 2010 and never looked back
People make places.Wrong people and the place turns to shit.Thats what ive found.
Happens everywhere unfortunately. Thanks for watching and the comment
When the wrong people pour into a country the country turns to shit. Not just Peterborough
Some of us know what the real problem is and we can see this problem in the video.
@@Tony11806 Indeed tony.But i cant say the truth as i keep getting shadow banned.Which also is a joke,when its the bloody truth!.
@@Tony11806so u must know what the real problem is in hordon, western supermare, Sunderland and Rhyl too then aswell ?
Huge elephant in the room here called immigration.
There is nothing wasist about the truth . Duh
No. It's not immigration. It's your government. Do you people ever take accountability for your doings or do you just like to blindly blame immigrants for everything? It's ridiculous. Just because you don't like certain people colour doesn't mean they're responsible for the mess YOU created. Imagine being an 85% majority in your own country and then blame the 15% for the mess the country is in. Absolute delusion.
Well said.
@bernardfitzsimons6942yep 👍
It's not just immigration it's immigration from certain places. Peterborough was always multicultural since the 40s/50s and was always a quiet place with a manageable population, but the last ten years or so have seen huge numbers coming in and it has changed the city beyond recognition.
I grew up in Peterborough before the immigration influx. Millfield and the Lincoln Rd area was always home to the Asian community which wasn’t that bad, until the Council / Housing associations decided to house Eastern Europeans there too. This is where the troubles come from.
I have escaped PTown now but every time I go back it seems to have declined somewhat!
The nightclubs have been either shut down or burned down ( insurance job ) where I live. The local paper recently said, that s particular nightclub was shutting due to lack of students coming to the area, and yet there are more buildings going up for “ more students “ apparently….but we all know the real reason this country is building more houses like crazy
Thanks for watching and the comment. Common sight across the country. Thanks for watching and the comment

John 3:16-21
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Mark 1.15
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Hebrews 11:6
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

As a Teen who lived in Peterborough all his life, Peterborough is sadly deteriorating before my eyes. Homelessness, deprivation, racial prejudice , drugs, Crime, Gang violence, Inequality and poverty are all problems of this city. It is always depressing, intimidating and i always feel unsafe walking to school or on Lincon road. Its hard for people to live comfortably in this city and the gap between the rich and poor, those who can access better education or jobs is clear in this city. Peterborough is not the place I once remembered it as since my early years of my life but I will always regardless love my city for the friends i made. I wish the best for Peterborough in the future.
Hey mate thanks for sharing your local insight. Sadly one I heard a number of times in Peterborough. Thanks for watching and the comment, hope you enjoy the future content.
Communist
It’s almost the same everywhere now
What do you think has caused it? I get that most places are like that now and perhaps a lot of it is down to Covid, Ukraine, Brexit... but what's made such a beautiful place deteriorate so much, because as far as I can see, it's far worse than most other places?
@@davie12 “Covid, Ukraine, Brexit”…wow…the brainwashing here is incredible.
In Birmingham I forget the long road it’s a total no go zone to whites after 6pm . The guy who told me as I was working in Chesterfield told me this as he was obviously from Birmingham, he was in his late 50s getting said he will never go back and he said it was enforced by Muslim gangs ! I myself had this in Firvale in Sheffield whilst working there in the day ! The country has gone . I imagine lots in London , Manchester the list goes on . government past and present well done hope your happy
I can remember when Peterborough was a nice place but years of mass immigration and the foreign invasion and failed multicultural project shows the country how disastrous uncontrolled immigration is
Shuddup ya daft racist..
Riiiight..immigration has made Peterborough a lot worse… even though its 90% white..and overwhelmingly british..
@@shotlikka words ov reason spoken by a good person...awesome mate..
Came here to see the bigotry, was not disappointed.
*Blames a 90% white city's desolation on 10% immigrants
I go to Peterborough every now and then, usually as a busker, or for other music events or to catch a train to somewhere north. I’ve worked in the city centre late at night, attended events and workshops at Millfield Community Centre and walked from one end of the huge, dark station car park where it always sounds like there’s a nightingale singing after getting off a train late at night. Like every city it has its share of problems, but I’ve never felt threatened there any more than anywhere else.
We did a long term job in Peterborough 2022-2023 - always liked the place and never had a problem. Like everywhere, it has some downsides, but also plenty of positives. Great architecture and history, beautiful Lido in City Centre for summer swimming. Good restaurants etc. This video is looking for the problems from the start.
I agree the cathedral square area is stunning however the estates surrounding Peterborough are sketchy for sure. All the locals in the comments agree, I guess if your working in the centre and staying near by it's ok? Thanks for watching and the comment
Not only that, but I am getting alpha male vibes. Plus, I imagine you went out with your big burly mates. Scary for the rest of us, but wow, for Mr butch here, "what's the problem"? It's meatheads like this that give meatheads a bad name. So we open ourselves up to the possibility of getting stabbed just so that we don't disappoint Mr Alpha. Narcissist much? In case there is any confusion I would being sheeeeeting my pants in that situation. I grew up on a council estate back in the 70s and 80s, I knew how to handle myself. The degenerates of my day (me included) are not the same as those of today. The bible talks about the wicked going from bad to worse. As I have witnessed three further generations I have witnessed this to be true.@@JoefishJ
All... 😂.. false comments and I don't know how you got your stats.. ridiculous pair of foolish vloggers .. scared 😂
Try visited a lot of the estates. Terrible.
When I was little in the 1980’s we would go on the train to Peterborough for a day out. It was great then! Queens gate shopping centre had just opened and was filled with great shops. It had something brand new to the area a Mc Donald’s! Hard to believe now but that was the only one for miles around. Or sometimes we would have tea at the reflections cafe on the top floor. Always felt safe and had were happy times. Now wouldn’t even go back to visit. Prefer to remember it as it was. Enjoyed your video though.
Didn't know you had a channel mate. It just came up on my feed. I remember you were very eloquent and knowledgeable on one of Bald's videos. Subbed 👍

My 17 year old nephew got jumped by 3 guys(non-Peterborough) early evening. Stiches in back of head and concussion!
So sad how it has gone, Cathedral is amazing.
Another great vid, subs still climbing. Well Done!

We had a school Geography trip to Peterborough in the late 90s. We were literally chased out of one the council estates by a large group of "certain" people
Asian ?
@@002lisamarie I'd guess yes
Its not as bleak as Bradford,.Middlesbrough, Stoke on Trent, Huddersfield, Dewsbury or Luton

Nice to meet you guys! All the best with the channel Joe.
Thanks fellas the interview was great however my camera in low light caused the whole thing to become a blur! Next time mate! Thanks again
You're welcome mate, it was a good experience. No worries at all!

Ben bottled it in his video, don’t blame him 😂. Good on you for getting some footage at night! 😂
He was with me the whole time, it was a super sketchy place. Tons we couldn't film for obvious reason, if I did you would understand! Thanks for watching and the comment mate really appreciate it
Love the video’s mate keep it up!
Legend! Thanks 👊
You should have gone to the Welland (Wellhard) estate. That place was always rough, even in the good times. God knows what its like now.
Haha yes I heard bad things! Thanks for watching and the comment
Welland isn't bad now. Orton Goldhay, Orton Malbourne, Millfield, Eastgate, New England, Bretton, Westwood are bad.

Thanks for watching and the comment
It's like that in every English market town that's been " enriched ".
I used to live there,,its not as bad as people say,,although theres a massive drug and homeless problem,but thats just any city nowadays
Lincoln road at night was super sketchy!!
Defo mate,i used to live 5 minutes away from lincoln rd? Some of the stuff i saw was mental mate
Where immigration is drugs are
No town should be seen as the norm, what has happened to this country, no law and order
No money being spent on towns, everything just left to go to rot.

Not all of it. Still plenty of nice places.
I lived in Peterborough for 45 years .Used to be a great place growing up with so many good memories. Was 10 pubs down Lincoln road used to be a great pub crawl into town back in the day think there is only the crown left there now ? I visit Peterborough 4 times a year to see my mum and mates who still live there BUT notice a change everytime i go there not for the better. Went to see a mate last time got a taxi to his told the drive lincoln road please he pulled up around the corner said to dangerous to let you out there :O what has the city become that i grew up and loved as a boy .
@johngoddard4459 Ah... The infamous “Crown to town” was attempted by many, achieved by few back in the day!!! (And anybody that made it to town was usually too wasted to get into any of the great clubs anyway 😂). I grew up in the area but moved away in my mid 20’s, 25 years ago. Peterborough was great back then. Fantastic shopping, buzzing nightlife, not to mention the Lido in the summer holidays!!! Crime was low, and we’d feel perfectly safe walking round the city centre as teenagers. I too go to visit family occasionally, and it’s so sad to see what Peterborough has become. Everybody local knows the reason for its demise, but I’ll let other people make there own conclusions. 😢
I like your channel. Keep up the good work.
😀
Thanks for the kind words 🙏
Great video Joe. Peterborough Cathedral is beautiful! What a contrast to the following scenes! 😅
Thanks mate I couldn't show barely anything I recorded on CZcams... It was super Sketchy! Catch you soon mate 🙏👍
Serious question. Do you come from a small village? I live in Peterborough. It’s not utopia but where is for a city of its size. I’ve had nights out in Millfield. Tapas bars, cafes. Restaurants. Pretty sure I could take you to many worse places.
I know, as someone who regularly frequents some of the rougher parts of Liverpool and Manchester, I didn't think it looks that bad, I thought it was satire at first, just walking around with a victim mentality...
I moved to Peterborough in the 70s i grew up by the 80s I would go into town when there was only like 3 nightclubs, By the early 90s it was booming loads of shops clubs pubs it was pretty safe to walk around at night etc then we got loads of new people turned up from all over the world in like 2003 some are ok but the others oh well. Now Lincoln road is a no go zone, and the city center oh my god its derelict nothing like it was at all full of homeless and junkies and strange dodgy shoplifters and pick pockets from all over the world. I never go to town center unless I really really have too. All the surrounding areas are getting worse as well, starting to resemble lincoln road area. What can you say the cathedral is nice shame about the rest lol... would love to get away to country
Yes it's a real shame! Thanks for watching and the comment. Hope you enjoy the content
It is not the all Peterborough people that made it a bad place , It is a mix of Drug addicts /dealers and people from overseas . It was a wonderful place to live and I should know.
Fair play to you lads. Bit tricky that little manor. 😎
You know what hun, most of those shops and takeaways are foreign. It actually shows the majority of people who live there.
Your reasoning is impeccable man.
Send them back
Or the minority who have driven the indigenous majority out.
@@symon3304 we need to fight back
That's what cultural marxism brought
Marx wasn't for mass immigration.
Exactly.
I bet its the same in whole europe, im from sweden and our town Oskarshamn were booming from the middle of 1800s to 1990s but then everything got abandoned, the only thing that is working here now is the Scania factory and SAFT battery factory, then just some stores, half the town is abandoned and depressing, me and my gf are moving to a village nearby because its too boring and depressing here, i dont want my kids to grow up in this shithole, its very important to have beautiful surroundings with nature, the industrial abandoned shit makes you so unhappy. And criminality is rising too, a disabled guy got robbed and brutaly murdered outside my work, i came to work just hours after he got murdered and i still can see that pool of blood in my mind, we have had many more murders around here, my neighbor got robbed 3 months ago and much more shit, The far right is rising in scandinavia too, i dont blame the people but our government havent done anything for years.
Thanks for watching and the comment! Seems to be happening in a lot of places!
A Far Right Revolution is inevitable and exactly what is needed in these social circumstances.....As Sir Isaac Newton said...."For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction".....The Far Left are going to have to lay in the PC Wokemaniac beds they have made for themselves.

This country is in serious need of rehabilitation, I hope this situation replicated in so many places , doesn't usher in a further neglect, polarization and hoplessness. Noone is an island. Many people who live in deprived areas are good people doing the best they can. And drug habits are not confined to the poorest in society . Its hidden from view. So time to work together I think and push for positive change, the alternative is bleak. Thanks Joe👍

Go to Peterborough quite often, my family lives slightly outer peterborough in a village...I enjoy going to the city as you say its quite deceiving, always visit the cathedral grounds as its a nice visit in the summer. But I do hear alot of stories from family about how much it has degraded over the years...I've heard criminals from London are relocated here now but not sure how much truth there is to it...but that may be reason
Thanks for the comment, yes definitely on the surface a beautiful city. However like most places the underbelly doesn't always match.
Great video. I’d like to visit the Cathedral but probably not much else lol. I’d recommend Chatham in Kent for a visit.
Thanks for the kind words 🙏 the cathedral was stunning! I hope you enjoy the rest of the content
Its a very odd place. I walked around it a few times about 10 years ago looking at cheap houses as someehwere cheap to relocate to...even in the day time there were some very rough sights and people.... It felt to me like a prime example of a potentially quite pretty place could be turned to crap....glad i never moved there in the end.

Normally Cathedral Cities are among the nicest in England. It’s no coincidence that the trashing of the city from the 60’s on coincided with the downward spiral. Town planners /architects in post war England and including our era , were /are a total failure, their lauded “brave new world” turned into a “Clockwork Orange” type dystopia.
Yes it's the London/Scottish overspill that started the decline and the Asian, African and Eastern European immigration that ruined it.
I grew up near Millfield. Peterborough was my Dads home town and he was saddened by its decline having been born there and died there end of last year. I got away in the 70's to Bristol then Devon and finally ending up near Lands End. Maybe I wanted to distance myself from it? 😉
Yes I don't blame you. Shocking. Thanks for watching and the comment
PZ isn't wonderful nowadays either.
It's Utopia compared to up country pard! @@cornishhh
Similar story to mine although I'm still in devon and slowing making my way to Cornwall 😜
@@UPTHEPOSH Where abouts in Devon?
It's not that bad, yes there is a homeless and drug problem but what urban centre doesn't? I used to work in Millfield, regularly walked around there late at night/early hours of the morning, as I have done all over Peterborough, good areas and bad, never once had a problem, not there or anywhere. I still frequent Lincoln Road as some of my favourite takeaways are there.
Side note, Millfield isn't an estate, it's an old neighbourhood that's had a massive influx of generations of immigrants over the years coming in and out of the area, people don't stay long, and landlords don't care about maintaining their properties, they just cram as many into HMO's as they can, so the area isn't cared about or maintained like a normal community.
The trouble is now after decades getting worse and worse.Younger people think it's the norm now.
I live in millfield and my family and many others have been here for decades!
Really like your vlogs only recently come across your channel some teally horrible places
Glad you enjoy the channel and the content 🙏👍

It's such a shame that Britain has such awful and desolate places....
It's been brought on in 10 years by bad governance and uncontrolled immigration
Mainly due to uncontrolled immigration.
We all know the reasons
Just laughable to think Peterborough is the worst place to live . No comparison to the deprivation of many towns and cities .
That so called no go area would be considered middle class in the real deprived places.
Have to agree with this comment, up north there many areas with worse areas, parts of Liverpool, Burnley, etc come to mind. This video started off ok. But then got a bit silly, you walked through a council estate in the daytime, whats the problem?? Where there gains of yobs chasing you away? No did not see anyone. No different to any other estate. Then the road in the day, it has a subway on it and a co-op funeral directors! If the people working at these places, felt, 'so unsafe', they would not even be there. This road is 10 a penny in 50% of London. Spotter looking at you, I did not see him. Try pointing the camera forward as opposed to looking at your face. Else one would presume your exaggerating to point to making stuff up innit brov!
Agreed. I'm from Peterborough and now live in the Finsbury Park area of London. That New England part of Peterborough would be a completely normal part of London. People just panic when they don't see white people 😅
@@_Shadbolt_ Rubbish.
Middle class ? Lmao. Have a walk down there. It's hell on earth.
@@james1658 All bad areas have businesses on them. My sister lived in Camberwell and it was a lot cleaner than Peterborough. Pboro is terrible.

Yes. Take a drive down Lincoln road. Lock the doors. Thanks for watching
Yes, ruined by mass immigration.
I was gonna move to Peterborough a few years ago......boy did I dodge a bullet.
You sure did.
What a shame. All those beautiful buildings! 😢
Those crime stats are shocking!!! My daughter's a copper in Ilkeston, Derbyshire, which is generally considered the roughest town in Derbyshire (outside Derby city). In January 2024, there were 61 crimes, 26 of which were violent or sexual offences. And the figures here are just for ONE estate!!!!!

I used to live down Lincoln road until a couple of years ago I never had any problems then, I used to walk out at night and go to the shops all the time, down towards town is definitely more dodgy though , we came back for a weekend recently and went to a pub in town, it was a total state and we didn’t feel entirely safe when we were out ,
Shocking scenes there now! Thanks for watching and the comment
Joe Fish new to your channel. Very interesting. I only go to Peterborough for the annual Beer 🍺 festival. I don't know were some people are saying that Peterborough is 90% White or English. I struggled to find anybody who could speak English! Locals have always warned me about Lincoln road. Unfortunately this is going on in all are major towns and cities. We are seeing the joys of Multiculturalism! I look forward to seeing more of your videos.

16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Mark 1.15
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Hebrews 11:6
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Jesus

Soon! Thanks for watching and the comment! See you on the next one
Lived in Peterborough 18 years, it has gotten worse and worse over the years quite sad really, don't really feel safe in the city anymore, the sounds of sirens are common, I've been involved personally in a couple of different occasions I was assaulted within the city for no reason
I was in Peterborough a few days before, I thought it wasn't actually that bad!
Once you leave city centre it changes!
@@JoefishJ I was staying in the travel lodge across from the abandoned nightclubs, If I knew you guys were going to be around would have stayed about !
Hey joe you interviewed me and a friend near catherderal are you posting that segment?
Hey, yes will be posting it in another video next week sometime. Thanks for the time you gave 🙏
@@JoefishJ amazing no worries! What day next week so I can look out for it!
Stay extra safe on your travels ❤
Thanks 🙏
@@JoefishJ ❤️
I remember going to London from Edinburgh in the 80’s on the then LNER main line and hated when the train had to stop at Peterborough station. Why should a place be so uncomfortable 🥹
Yes agreed a definite feeling in the air. Thanks for watching and the comment. I hope you enjoy the content
Not as bad as Ilford… You genuinely may not be able to go there… You’d more than likely have active contact,
Active contact 😂 military speak? Thanks for watching and the comment.
When I went to Peterborough a few years ago now, it was really nice. I’m so shocked it’s this bad.
Why is this happening? it is so frustrating to see, every town near to me the councils are demolishing the shopping centres that are popular, businesses are closing yet they was queing out of the doors less than a year ago
Sad to see. I grew up in south London, and moved to town just outside Peterborough to essentially escape the path I was going down.
Now it looks like where I left, Croydon 🙁
I hear my old home Spalding is doing bad
Sad times! Thanks for watching and the comment. I hope you enjoy the content
North London, and it is the same… it was not great when I was growing up but it gone down hill like a lemming of a cliff.
I work in Spalding, it's absolutely fine!
@@housinauthority5258 I'm aware of people being set on fire at the tulip festival. That is not "fine"
You can not compare Croydon to Peterborough no way I lived in Kennington and when I tell you Peterborough is nothing like South London at all😂
Ram Raiding actually originated in Newcastle Upon Tyne (or at least in the North East area) It's like the lads, shoplifting Holiday originated in Liverpool, Ram Raiding originated on the North East Coast.
Come to Doncaster twinned with beruit
Doncaster is going the same way ? All our cities are going down the toilet. Multiculturalism has destroyed Britain.
It looks nice on videos.
I’m in London for a week and was hoping to see the Cathedral there. As a woman traveling solo, I’ve decided to pass. Sad..
A real shame! Thanks for watching and the comment. I hope you get to visit a nice Cathedral somewhere.
I’ll give you a free tour of my city Peterborough, let me know if this is of interest
Why would three young men be stared at walking down the street? Go on...SAY IT.
Do Spalding Lincolnshire next!
Great suggestion! Thanks for watching and the comment
The local radio station is heroine fm,seriously
Hereward?
@@markcoleman900 no heroine with an e
Imagine living in this shitehole country working all your days paying into the system to finally retire and your scard to walk down your local high street at night !
Just moved from Peterborough to Devon about 5 months ago and 20 years ago I would have missed it and the night life was amazing but hate it now and lived there all my life, don't miss it and it's just absolutely rubbish there.. Ruined :( ..
Well at least your in a good spot now. Thanks for watching and the comment hope you enjoy the content
Me and my friends often start a night out down the coffee shops. People always been friendly to us and never had any problems.
Unfortunately millfield alot of cons than pros but you will not find an empty shop on that strip.
The locals have tried working with the police to tackle crime Unfortunately its always empty words.
Most group of men i agree not a great sight as a local you know all they are doing is having a beer and eating sunflower seeds.
The deprivation of the city people can blame immigration Unfortunately the council is to be blamed for that.
I used to work around there in the mid 1980's and it was deserted really, i still go around there for work purposes and its a different world now not British in anyway. Its the main area for immigrants so to see a white guy let alone 3 together is going to be very unusual so that would be why people are suspicious. I personally have never had any trouble and i don't feel in any danger when i'm around the area maybe i'm just naive? I have to say that during the so called pandemic and lockdowns Millfield never changed and that was the good part of it, whilst the rest of the city was in lockdown and in a state of paranoia, Millifeld was just normal, people out eating and drinking and nobody cared whch i liked. The rest of the city is more and more becoming like Millfield, a mix of mass immigration and "white flight" is turning the whole city into Millifeld and tbh as a white Brit i'm starting to feel like just another ethnic minority which is a strange feeling to say the least, i'm not patriotic at all i'm all for free movement around the world but the impact immigration is having here leaves you feeling no sense of belonging here, no sense of identity and an everyone for themselves kinda attitude. You get the feeling everyone is afraid of each other because there is so many different cultures and languages on the go. Peterborough in general is fast becoming non English speaking and sometimes it feels like the government and the council have decided this area is where they are to dump all the undesirables and asylum seekers etc... Every pub, every empty office block,bingo hall or house is being converted into flats for the latest wave of immigrants from Africa, Africans are everywhere at the moment... nothing wrong with Africans but its like there is nobody in charge of the numbers arriving. I have decided I will be taking my family away from here at some point in the near future because it just doesn't feel like a place with any future, it just feels like a ticking time bomb and i dont want to be here when it goes off. This is just my opinion thats all so any haters please respect my opinion as i do yours. And i'm not racist, my best mate is a rumanian gypsy ive known him and his family for years now and will be going to stay in rumania with him and his family next year, i also have a good mate from Africa who i could also go to stay with in Africa... immigration does open new doors eh and who knows maybe i'll become an immigrant myself soon.
That part.of Peterborough is the roughest neighbourhood in Cambridgeshire for sure!
It bloody felt like it! Thanks for watching and the comment
Joe as you and ben would know , most of the places that have a bad rep have bloody good people in them , it’s the fact most people and families in the uk don’t have a pot to piss in, social and economic issues aware bringing these places down so only ones ti blame are government both national and local . The money local council get gets spunked up the wall on needless projects and they forget about the public living in them , as I’ve said before I’m from the Muff also but I also lived in Corby not too far from Peterborough, little steel town where they moved Scottish down for the steelworks , then closed it all leaving a town with little work and lots of working men’s clubs 😮 I think Corby has improved due to its central location making it a great hub for businesses but social issue there remain like when I lived there, all the best Adz
Agreed 💯 mate! Bloody sad times for the people. Thanks for watching and the support. Really appreciate it 👊
People in the 50s and 60s didn't have a pot to piss in but every town and city was safe to walk round.That's no excuse.
reminds me of slough: home sweet home

Genuinely a scary place to be at night! Thanks for watching
Ethnic gangs? The Kurds, the Chechens, the Romanian gypsies, the Albanians, the Sicyllians , the Nigerians??
This city in the 90s was a good city full of clubs bars pubs and restaurants shops it’s really run down no shopping even in the main shopping Center of queens gate. The city it’s just run down to fuck hospital was built new was to small not enough beds to support 13 years ago and the influx of people to the city it’s crazy wait times the nice parks we have are full tents and drunks lots drug misuse and homeless people and they thought it was good to build a university here with no night life and nothing to do not a very big attraction for students lots millions wasted on the Hilton hotel it’s left as the money ran out the council have spent millions on new road work but it been pointless and unfortunately a wast of funds this city needs new MPs that will be there for Peterborough and its residents as there not. Been born here and lived on an off for 44 years it’s gone down to rock bottom and further down even more. Just demolish and start again I think 💭
The feeling must of been palpable 😂😂
Lol 😂 sketchy!
You should visit Erdington high street in Birmingham
Just done Handsworth and Soho road last week! Shocker. Thanks for watching and the comment. I hope you enjoy the
Homeless, drug users are hard to spot in the city centre .
For Stevie Wonder maybe...
@JoefishJ I live in spalding and visit Peterborough twice a week at least. Peterborough isn't as bad as painted and there are many far worse places. Lincoln Road has always , abdxI mean always been bad. 30 years ago Lincoln Road Peterborough was cited by Government as one of the five most impoverished roads /areas in England . [NOT UK]
The only thing that has put Peterborough on the map is Joanna denhenhy!.
I remember that story!!
If Scunthorpe was a city it would be featured on this channel but it is a only a town
Soon!! Thanks for watching and the comment. You'll see Scunthorpe on here soon.
Have they found the barclays smasher?
