Today they started to knock this landmark down. I don't expect we will get a comparable building when they put something else on the site. A small group of people from the community stood and watched. People came and saw and drifted off, replaced by other people. Couples walking their dogs. Father and son. Subdued atmosphere. Several media companies there, doing talking heads in front of the demolition.

Very sad.
Probably you know that our US news makes it sound like nearly all of London has fallen brick by brick and burned to ashes at the hands of agravated teens.
Our news was doing a good job of that too last weekend. My neighbourhood is pretty badly impacted but its not noticeable to people outside specific places.
Interestingly it also isn't largely teens that were the perpetrators, nor the unemployed...
