I have friends who went to uni in Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester and Birmingham. All of them have said that living conditions on these cities' big estates are far worse in most mentioned and about the same in the others. Same goes for the nice areas when put in comparison with Hull. Where they all beat us hands down is the night life and the shopping.

These cities, like Hull, have scroats and far more of them then we do!!!!! My friend who went to uni in Liverpool says she would much rather settle in Hull then there. The others didn't mind either way. So, from the conversations I have had with others, there is hardly compelling evidence that we live in the worst place in Britain, as some like to name it!!!!!!! Far from it!!!!!!

Hull gets a lot of negativity it does not deserve, o.k some is valid, but I like Hull and do not agree that it is not a nice place to live.

i love living here and will never leave i am proud to be from hull...or as fc say "Hull & Proud" lol
