#1 "Luton has a vibrant multi-cultural community."

translates to: "Hotbed of muslim fundamentalism."

#2 "Vibrant multicultural community" = swarming with post-pubescent tough guys and the cooking smells funny.

#4 If crime levels in Luton get really bad, don't let them conn you into forming a "Luton Brigade>"

#6 I wouldn't put the number of "volunteers" in a community at the top of the list for what makes a town good or bad. I was surprised to see a couple other towns on the list. Howard, Bulldog, or any of the other RB UKers-which towns do YOU think are the worst in Britain?

#7 C'mon, the Pythons were making fun of Luton back in the early '70s. This isn't anything new.

#8 I'm fairly proud to say that my home-town makes it onto the list: Ilkeston, Derbyshire - featured largely in the writings of D.H.Lawrence. A 'beautiful' place.

#9 Luton, number 1? Got to be kidding me! Whatever happened to Wapping or Milton Keynes? Well if they had an infamous airport serving middle income families flying off to Portugal and Malta as well as pensioners darting off to Costa Brava, they too would garner lots of votes. I tell you its the parking, just like it is in every city or town that gets rated "worse".

#11 the architecture of the Education Centre (closed down due to lack of custom), and the bizarre-smelling river that runs alongside the town. Ilkeston's most famous son is actor Robert Lindsay. He does not live there.

Sounds like Perry Fl. and Perry has no massage parlors or chip shops to brighten its aspect.

#12 Macnails: hilarious! A Forest fan? Derby County 'mesen'! - Went drinking in Notts at Xmas - had to have a 2am dance in the Market Square fountains for old times' sake!

Shipman - Ilkeston without chips and brothels? You have my sincere condolences!
