Are the new investors knocking the whole of Croydon down and starting again then?

To be fair a lot of money is going into Croydon, completely aside of their dump

Your post and subsequent response serve as perfect examples of the cultural and intellectual divide between the people of Croydon and Brighton.

Well for starters Rizzle kicks are from Brighton the kooks were formed in Brighton and Adele lives in Brighton , thats not bad 3 out of 21 for little ole Brighton , how many of your list are from Croydon or still live there ? There are some nice parts of the Borough of Croydon , but East and especially West Croydon are complete shitholes , with some proper toerags who live and infest these 2 areas.
