Keep the low low, give them distractions, hatred towards one another, moaning at the state of this or that , creating racial divide, reinforcing it in the press, creating silly diversions like sexuality, political correctness etc. Yes, it's all pre planned , if you dig deep enough you will find videos from late 70's , early 80's predicting all of this, eerily uncannily accurate.

The problem is that it is not just Plymouth… it’s almost all of our seaside towns. Even the big name well known ones that we thought 20+ years ago would be well kept holiday destinations by the sea forever are now hollowed shells. Soon if you want a British seaside holiday you won’t be able to for fear of attack injury or illness and if you live in a seaside town what once was a desirable home will be worth next to nothing. The government and local authorities need to come out of the cities and look at what they have done to our seaside towns… they had the opportunity to look after them and fumbled it so badly it’s now undesirable to live in a seaside town.

@@CelticSaint OK, so Plymouth has become less white, and more like the general UK population in the last 10-15 years, but as this film makes clear the down and outs, are predominately white. What I'm saying is that the reaction to people reading the title of this film 'Locals carrying machetes, shoplifting and homelessness...' are assuming that it is foreigners that are being referred to, but it's not. They really mean 'locals'. What made me comment in the first place is that the comments I was reading are totally missing the point. The problem in Plymouth isn't immigrants. The people with problems aren't immigrants. And the reason the people shown in this film have problems - mental health issues, drug addictions, homelessness etc, aren't because of immigrants (I know this is the argument that many commentators here will naturally respond with). The problems highlighted in this film are because of 14 years of Tory government and austerity that has destroyed the things that used to support these people so that they didn't end up in such a desperate situation. I know that's not a fashionable argument on the internet - look at the comments here - but watching the film makes it abundantly clear to me that this is what has happened.

Definitely in Plymouth the majority of problems are down to either locals (Plymothians) or, and this is increasingly an issue in Devon and Cornwall, people who have been moved down here in to hostels who have drug problems and/or have committed sexual crimes against children.

People are expected to work 9-5, whilst being too tired to live a normal life, save every penny just to be able to work 9-5. There's very little motivation for the lower class to actually work because sadly there's nothing there for them anymore. Then kids see drug dealers with nice cars, designer clothes etc and that life appeals to them far more than working 9-5 5 days a week to remain poor.

AMERICAN HOOLIGAN- DEREK "Del Boy" DIABLO of MIAMI CASUALS here, hello all. I for one LOVE PLYMOUTH, returning soon, lived there for most of 6 months in 2019, was back for a month in 2022, then was over for a week last year. I haven't personally seen the sort of deterioration being presented and discussed here as being so drastically different. Everyone is entitled to call it as they see it so not trying to discredit anyone, its just I have a VERY different perspective. I've been lots of places in UK including London, Brighton, Portsmouth, Isle of Wight, Jersey, Torquay, Cardiff, Caerphilly, Barry, other places... And while I can tell all of you quite emphatically that I LOVE ALL OF GREAT BRITAIN, my Heart is in Plymouth. The JANNERS are great People, the best. I love Plymouthians and the mighty GREEN ARMY, up the PLYMOUTH ARGYLE, Respect to THE CENTRAL ELEMENT/TCE Firm, the A38's, EFFORD BOOT BOYS, SWILLY BOYS, STONEHOUSE BOYS, UNDER 5's, BABY RISK, BABY WACE. 💚💚🖤🖤💚💚 Things may be bad right now for all of you and I empathize, however its not as bleak as it may seem, always remember that Great Britain is a SPECIAL place, greatest CULTURE in the World, so much has come from England, UK, you are a special People though there is a nasty side to all of it, one not presented in America where the perception is that UK is posh. I know the other Side of it, the dark side, I'm part of that actually or rather an older expression of said ANTI-SOCIAL tendencies in society being PUNK, SKINHEADS, BOOT BOYS, FOOTBALL HOOLIGANS, CASUALS... I'm not going to meddle in your National or Local Politics, I can only offer my Country as a point of reference, and I've been all over America. The "rot" that all of you are on about isn't just Plymouth, UK, its all over the Western World but not every single place. While other major American cities are in a similar state of decay and in a downward spiral, MIAMI and my State of FLORIDA are better than ever before in my 50 years of living here. Thing is yeah, my CUBAN PEOPLE came here when Castro took over and TOOK OVER. The existing White and Black People were against Us but we took Miami over and spread all over Florida. No one has the RIGHT to do do so but its what we done. So then a MASSIVE SURGE IN IMMIGRATION and demographic change resulted in a thriving, continually improving and growing City, State... So it isn't simply a matter of immigration, its the shared culture and values or lack thereof that come into play with the specfic group or groups that come. I have no advice for any of you other than become involved in local Politics and work towards dealing with things as they are and not how they once were. Above all, keep Faith, things can and will improve but not overnight. Our major American cities didn't get to where they are today all of the sudden, its years of policies enacted and their eventual effects. Florida gets a bad rap from many out there but what our Politicians have done has WORKED. Not sure what you can take from that but if Plymouth and other UK Cities copied Florida and Miami things will improve. Lastly, Plymouth is a beautiful place but there are serious Bad Energies there, lots of Violence, Fighting, Street Brawls involving Navy, other Military, lots of different factions and individual nutters, it can be quite dangerous, but that's all part of the charm isn't it? ... all of you are talking about a decline and hearkening to yesteryear, well may I suggest you take an interest in BRITISH FOOTBALL HOOLIGANISM, TERRACE CULTURE, and the CASUALS Scene? Love it or hate it, these are UNIQUELY BRITISH STREET CULTURES. You want your Country back?
