London is great when you are a millionaire celebrity or a high earning professional. The liberal elite love it, mostly because they are largely sheltered from the reality of it. It is not so great for everyone else. Most people who live in London do not take pride in it, they do not see the area they live in as belonging to them or see their future there. They are passing through, on their way to somewhere better; somewhere less chaotic, less aggressive, quieter, more functional. Presumably they aspire to living in 'The Shire' as you put it.
It seems only logical that aspirant minority groups, abitious immigrants and optimistic migrants want to get out of London too, after all, it's just as unpleasant, chaotic and dangerous for them too. Of course they would now have their eyes on areas outside of the M25 and if that is the case, why should they not 'prepare the ground'?
The rest of the people living in London are those who are stuck there, through no fault of their own and are unable to find a route out. This especially applies to the white working class people who have remained despite the ‘white flight’. They are now like an embattled minority, clinging to the idea of a community that disappeared years ago, unappreciated, anachronistic and out of place.
With that in mind It feels a little like capitulation, coming to the conclusion that London is lost, but equally, it’s hard not to. We have to face the facts, with four more years of Mr Khan, it is unlikely to get any better anytime soon.

Why are the BBC using research done by Hope Not Hate to deliberately undermine Reform candidates and their supporters? Because they are worried. They are finally beginning to see that there is a great re-set approaching. The progressive, liberal, metropolitan elite are losing their control of the narrative. Their endless virtue signalling, woke dogma and luxury opinions are simply not working any more. People are rejecting all of that stuff and the insufferable BBC progressive liberals who broadcast it.
Let's start with Nick Robinson who did his disengenuous best to mischaracterise Farage and his various political positions in the recent tv interview. He tried his best to reframe various Farage quotes, he quoted Reform candidates entirely without context, he interrupted Farage's replies and denied him the time to fully defend himself by claiming "time is short".
At times Robinson was both dismissive and rude and this was deliberate, not accidental and entirely pre-planned. By linking him to Trump, Truss and Putin he implied that Farage admired 'illegitimate' political figures and therefore held unacceptable opinions, making him appear toxic by association. Robinson then accused him of 'wriggling out of it' whenever Farage tried to clarify his position.
In conflating immigrants with the process of immigration it was both deliberately defamatory and dishonest, by mischaracterising Farage's criticism of Sunak the explicit implication was that if Farage isn't a racist then his supporters certainly must be.
So many unsubstantiated presumptions.
Robinson was performative and virtue signalling, not balanced or fair. It reminded me of Maitliss vs Prince Andrew; it was intended as a political ambush. However, in this case it didn't work, it simply exposed the BBC's blatant bias against Farage, Reform and their supporters.
To his credit Farage seemed to successfully deflect most of it and came away with his reputation entirely intact.
The same can't be said of Robinson or the BBC, they both simply reflect the metropolitan, liberal elite's globalist agenda and the extent to which the mainstream media seeks to control the narrative. In this case it didn't work.
Vote Reform and let's dismante this elitist cabal.

The liberal globalists in government, in the media and in our civil service know that mass immigration creates cheap labour and more demand, which is effectively a cheap fix for lack of economic growth.
They will say it keeps taxes down (not true, as we all know) and of course it also provides huge demand for homes and property, which they have invested in. It also keeps rents high, which they also profit from, and it creates enough economic activity to make it seem like the GDP is going up. Of course per capita, more people sharing no extra wealth, means that we actually all worse off. Ordinary people can see this clearly, the political elites, not so much.
The university educated progressives also believe that they are redressing centuries of 'white supremacy', Western colonial 'oppression' and therefore they see immigration as morally correct too.
They also see immigrants as morally virtuous, like innocent children, that have to be protected by the state. Much more than the white English majority.
Let's be honest, they also seem to have an ideological hatred for anything to do with the 'capitalist' Western societies. They don't mind too much if it all gets dismantled bit by bit or even ultimately destroyed. Hence the obsession with diversity, inclusion and equity.
Of course, none of these elite groups really feel the social costs of mass immigration, so they can dismiss the concerns of those who do as 'racist' or 'far right'. To them it is a kind of virtuous, moral pass-time.

Connor Tomlinson says what Farage doesn't dare say. Unfortunately young men like him, TR, Carl Benjamin, Calvin Robinson, Lawrence Fox etc simply get demonized, mischaracterized and smeared by the mainstream media (usually after having been targetted by Hope Not Hate) and their opinions declared illegitimate.
Mathew Goodwin sums it up quite accurately in his book 'Values, Voice and Virtue'; you must have the 'correct' values otherwise you are denied a voice and potrayed as without virtue. People like Tomlinson are denied a mainstream platform in an attempt to silence them, just like the protestors after the Southport stabbings. You will not see him, or anyone like him, invited to sit opposite Ash Sarkar on the BBC's Question Time, mostly because he is a young white, English male and unapologetic about it.
Farage knows this and is trying to walk the tightrope between speaking the truth and saying what the media will allow him to say. This is not the case with the European populist leaders like Kurt Wilders, they are now speaking freely. Perhaps we need things to get worse before our politicians will do the same? In the meantime we rely upon people like yourself, Douglas Murray and the Lotus Eaters.

Yes, another example of a well loved IP getting a thorough kicking by the woke revisionists. In this case, doubling down on the franchise bashing.
You didn't mention the fact that because the 're-booted' Dr Who is now mostly funded by Disney, it means Russell T Davies and the writers no longer consider themselves connected to the legacy of the intellectual property. From now on they will be free to pursue the various progressive agendas with impunity in an effort to 'reclaim' the iconic tv series. After all, they trully believe that what the world needs is for Dr Who to be 're-imagined' for 'modern audiences' and Disney will actively encourage them to do so.
With Disney at the helm they will have bigger budgets and bigger audiences whatever they do, so why should they worry about what the 'conservative' traditional legacy audience thinks? Why even worry what audiences think at all, given Hollywood's current obsession with what the Critical Drinker calls 'The Message'? Going broke is not a problem as long as you are sufficiently woke, look at what they have already done to Star Wars, Marvel, Disney's own legacy IPs and even Scooby Doo!
Christopher Eccleston has already distanced himself from the whole franchise, so too have fans of his and the previous incarnations.
I predict that in a couple of years even Disney and the BBC will realise that they have ruined the whole thing and dump it. Then, hopefully, the traditionalists will reclaim it?
