| Comment | It really doesn't though. That is the thing. A lot of that comes from folks seeing brown people around and getting all riled up. It was an affluent area initially (the flats and buildings are genuinely nice and large and were expensive and desirable) it went through a period of huge change that was underscored by radically shifting demographics and social neglect and is now in full blown gentrification mode. The "Govanhill is a shitehole" line is 100% associated with the period of shifting demographics, this is not really objective or that up for interpretation. Again, if you want to get it in on that and think it is fertile ground for pish jokes than go for it mate but at least own up to it. |
