'One of the problems I've seen with the drone view of life, is that they are often scared of their own shadows, so anyone or anything that is a bit noisy, smelly, entertaining or unusual to them is something to fear and not welcome in their drone-land. They bleat and wail until the authorities come to their aid and cleanse the neighbourhood of these terrifying individuals/pubs/shops etc.' I would say that this is a factor of life in any neighbourhood. I work in a number of less gentrified pockets of London and get the same 'bleats and wails' from the traditional working class population to 'come to their aid and cleanse the neighbourhood'. I also get regular comments about the influx of 'outsiders', usually meaning Eastern Europeans so maybe everyone is just becoming less tolerant?
