That hurts to hear.
I grew up in Hartlepool (North East of England), moved to Australia when I was 19 and I'm 35 now.
I moved because I was stabbed, and can't count on one hand how many times I'd been assaulted and mugged in the 10 years prior. To hear the rest of the country is heading in a similar direction is a horrid reflection on the state of affairs in the UK.
- leoedin 3y agoI'm a similar age to you, live in London and I've never been stabbed, mugged or assaulted in the UK. It's not that bad.
