Every nation on this earth has its good and bad sides. Of course, it's fun to h8 on the UK because they can be so pompous and intolerant themselves, as if they're faultless.

The first image I can recollect of England was in the train station at Heathrow where I saw two guys dressed in kinky black leather hot pants and net stockings necking as they bought tickets. I wish now I took pictures so I could add them to the fantastic album growing on this thread.

Why?  Angry

Can I ask a genuine Cool question please?

Have they actually started that rule that people with less than 100 posts should not open a new thread to show Nigeria in the same bad light, if they wish? Shocked Tongue Cheesy

If you think Molue is bad  try taking the Central line (London) at rush hours. Man , this is a hi-tech CATTLE TRAIN  believe me.


And it is not a localised problem .

No basis in comparing Molue and the central life. The latter looks orderly, compared to the chaos that comes with when molue arrives. Besides, does Molue ever come to a full stop at busstops in Lagos? Owa, Owa, they would be screaming, and when you reach your destination, you'D have to jump out of the moving molue. Abeg, there is no ground for comparison.

I don't see the point of this thread. If anyone wants to really see the ugly side of Britain then all they really need to do is to go onto the BBC and other UK sites such as The Sun and the Guardian.  Nobody hides anything here in the UK rather the tendency of the press here is to expose all the uglies in society rather than hide it. The BBC have a whole section on their website dedicated to poverty in the UK. Why don't the Nigerian press or people do the same instead of trying to brush all under the carpet and going on the defensive when the foreign press reports on one of the many constant negative stories coming out of Nigeria.

Why doesn't a Nigerian website have a dedicate a section on the majority of individuals living below the breadline instead of crying fowl whenever such scenes are broadcast around the world. What are they trying to hide?

The question to be asked is why do Nigerians always go on the defensive when the ills of their society are exposed?
Why all the cries about foreign press only focusing on the ill's of Nigerian society when the Nigerian press themselves hardly ever report anything good about it themselves? I would like to add that if it weren't for the foreign press such as the BBC and CNN half of you guys would not even know what was going on in Nigeria.  Cool

you missed the whole point;

To show afterall, there is no PARADISE anywhere.

And also to dish back what they are dishing about Nigeria.

I live in EUROPE and never saw a good PICTURE of Nigeria in their news. NEVER.

Dont mind these diasporic Nigerians - they bash their own father and mother land, but when you bash the land where they live, they scream and shout, when the press bash their motherland , they keep quiet, what do we call those kind of people? we call them bastards.

FOR REAL !
It's not as if I'm overly patriotic. It just annoys me when these Nigerians start shaking, rolling on their heads and fuming at the mouth when you diss the country they live in. As if the real owners of the country can't deport them at the blink of an eye.

That's because the picture only depicts central line during normal operation, you need to see the real rush hour, especially in the city. For a train operating underground to have hoardes and masses of flesh, spilling onto the main road overground and beyond Shocked It is mind-boggling incredulous.

Have you seen film of the Tokyo underground during rush hour?
They actually employ people to push people into the carriages
to make maximum use of space. Now that is incredible. Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy
