Did Mile End improve under the "right to buy" schemes? I haven't been to the UK in 20 years, and I remember the "council estates" in Hendon, the kids there were always angry and wild.
Don't be so hard on the UK's council flats, housing estates, or whatever they call them. The USA has equally disgusting public housing, and it's disgusting for the same reason as the British counterpart.
@MondoBeno Canada too...Toronto in particular since I live in the outskirts.. i think the province downloaded costs or whatever the logistics were, to the city and it cant afford to upkeep the places in addition to being public housing. The houses around town are boarded up with millions in backlog repairs awaiting that will probably never happen. the buildings, some of them, are horrible too. The city is the biggest slum landlord. Ironic. a political hot potato indeed
Had a good mate that lived in those buildings refurbished his flat and sold it for a fortune...now runs the Kenton pub in Hackney....He would say that is the real London and as any part of London it has pretty and dodgy part but got to admit Mile end is pretty ugly
ha, I didn't know mile end was a real place. Just a great song. I didn't take it that literal! 16 years and I just learned something new. "mile end" is really the name of a town? too funny.
Interesting to see photos of the Eric and Carnbrook estates ... actually, these days, for 'car' in the lyrics substitute 'person'. Balfron Tower is quite right, it's almost all Bengalis and Somalis around the East End right now. An improvement, to tell you the truth, on the often alcoholic leftovers from the 'white flight' to Essex.
The tory invention of the 'non working class' is being implemented today by cameron just as it was in the eighties by thatcher. Key workers like Firemen, Nurses, public transport workers, even Police, SACKED! Soldiers injured in battle, SACKED! Why are hard working heroes who hold society together, being punished for affluent bankers mistakes? Why are bankers still being awarded bonuses? Its because the working class dont seem to have the guts or the brains to do anything other than moan. Rise!
@KevLancaster1 dude get a life and an education.. england has always been better off under the tories. labour leave soo much mess and national deficite its inreal, as for your comment about `non working class` was an invention of the conservatives??? how old are you? you russian?.... course they were sacked!!! they weren`t doing their job...they would rather join the `union` and get everything for nothing rather than work!!!
I saw this movie for the first time; the directing and editing are pure bang on ( like the sound of a train moving along when he tests the shite ).
A week ago I had dreamt I was a Canadian soldier , and I was walking around a dirty old town somewhere that had some kid that had an adults face looking like Karzai's / was handing out hash / Plunking chunks into peoples hands / but as you walked around for a bit it turned into a powder. ? The movie makes its point, stay the hell away from heroin.
the cunts that designed these areas have a lot to answer for . pretty sure they never lived in 20 story flat probably live out in a mansion in the countryside throwing tea party's.
Its a good song, But jarvis is a bit of a knob for making it.
trendy, artfarty types like him movin into the east end pushing out all the real east enders, And then saying it looks lie hell and smells like piss, when his parents are problly minted. !

This girl I used to sit next to in art class would tell me that everytime she heard Jarvis sing, she'd get jelly in her knickerbockers. I asked, whaddya get when you hear me sing? She laughed and quipped, it rhymes with loo, and has a nasty aroma. I told her, you must mean love bumps, and stong heart beats. She told me to piss off, but leave the Pulp CD. Teenage angst that was, pure n simple.
What the fuck are you trying to say? 'Thsu' isn't a fucking word man! I'm sorry if you're dyslexic or something, like I'm not mocking you or trying to get into one of those pointless gay youtube arguments, it's just that even though I know you're speaking English, I have no idea what you're saying!
It's Burd'e'tt Road, not Burd'i'tt Road. I live at the East India Dock Road end and it's fine really. Only found this song on my i-pod tonight and had to check out if there was a video, sadly no proper ones. Good song though, classic Pulp:mocking but somehow uplifting...
Great song and video.Nice pics some of them made me feel really quite ill,especially the one with the fat white woman,and boys in leisure wear. gotta be a 9/10
