The young man in light blue on the left his name is Lee ..He was in my music class a year later ..Drummer
am from Wandsworth and yes it was like this.
Wandsworth is now the best run borough in London. Amazing how it has been turned around.
Rushabh Haria no it’s not haha they still have the poorest estate in London
incorrect, poorest estate in London is either Thamesmead in Bexley or Andover Estate in Islington
Ok the real reason for any london area being better than it was in 81. Is called social conditioning.. thw rich moved into london and got all the working class out.. but in 81 those.same familys disnt want there own off spring in london. Funny how.menatlity changes coz of the money
I haven't been there for years.
Sorry but I have to disagree with you there, Wandsworth may be a good borough to live in if you’re one of the affluent residents living in private accommodation who enjoys the lowest council tax in London, but many of its housing estates across the borough, particularly in Battersea, are still some of the most neglected and poorly maintained out of almost any other area in London. A very typical Tory council, has always marginalised it’s working class residents
strange how the middle class people who speak on the new report don't even represent the people on that estate..lol
*news report*
Just the same today!
The cockney accent was still the main accent in SW London at that time. I wonder how it changed so quickly?
Jake Haynes do you mean that the housing prices are too much for the majority of normal people?
It's unbelievable that streets that were lucky not to have been demolished during the wide scale slum clearance projects back between the 1950's to the 1970's, are now supposedly worth (or cost) more than many people will earn in a lifetime.
There are whole streets in parts of northern England with houses that sell for not much more than the average yearly wage, yet very similar terraced houses 250 miles to the south cost 20-30++ more.
Supply and demand, they cost more in London because everyone wants to live there, in comparison to towns up north
Tony Blairs open door policy and social cleansing.
Was going to say the accents have changed significantly over the years!
Jafaken culture for the "yutes".
8 lived on that estate for 30 years, the Doddington and Rollo.
I never grew up in London, but we had youth clubs back in the 70’s and it helped having somewhere to go.
Kids now got nothing.
My Uncle when he was a youth.
Am i allowed to use snippets of this footage for a short film?
...go for it!
you wondered why I moved
Is that Palmer in the classes
London looked way worse back then
NPK Dotty it was but it wasn't as violent as today trust me blacks and white suffered together and they press didn't shove fake news down our throats
So race wasn't the big issue
Look at the video its all blacks and whites together how often do you see that now
The governments have made us go against each other
I grew up on farm during the 80s
@@liamroyce5958 There was always plenty of violence and Fake News about, blaming blacks for most of the crime; Stop & Search, etc. But yeah, black and white got along on the whole, thanks to the Soul music scene and other things :-0 What's happening now? It's called Divide and Rule!
liam Royce blacks and whites have always got along in London even till this day they still do but unfortunately Asians get all the shut
@@agfagaevart was it worse for violence back then or now?
@@agfagaevart There was far less violence - I lived there then and I live here now - so lets try to be relatively accurate.
When the black kids of South London talked with a proper London accent. Nowadays you can't understand them
Does it matter if you can't understand? everything isn't designed with you in mind. Jamaican patois has influenced how people speak English in the UK and will never return to how it used to be...when you understood them.
If Britain hadn't colonised and enslaved Africans in Jamaica perhaps you would be able to understand them but they did so...
2.08 Not a violent person but that's a punchable face.
...there is always one!
Poor little young people.
