We also do that quite well - can anyone remember the name of the bloke whose death sparked the 2011 riots?

I was talking to someone the other day about Brixton. She was gushing about what a lovely place it is and would love to live there. I tried to explain what it was like in the early 80s (my Dad owned a garage in Herne Hill - needless to say he did a lot of business around the riots) - and she was having none of it.
