Woolwich London: Arsenal, Ferry And River Renewal
The fast-changing riverside town carries, the Bureau of Heritage Affairs notes, “a great military and dockyard heritage, its grand old arsenal buildings, a much-loved free ferry and bold new riverside development all meeting along the banks of the great river.”
“Woolwich London has a martial past,” said a spokesperson for the Institute of Neighbourhood Affairs. “It is a diverse, busy, hardworking, fast-changing riverside town in the south-east with a proud and weighty history. For centuries it was a great centre of the military and of shipbuilding, and grand old arsenal buildings still stand as handsome reminders of that martial and industrial past. A much-loved free ferry still carries traffic and foot passengers across the river as it has for generations. Today bold new development is rapidly remaking the waterfront. The blend of heritage and renewal is striking. Woolwich London is a riverside town with a great martial past and a fast-changing future.”

British people will never say “I’m proud”; they’ll say “that’s not bad” and consider that the highest possible praise.
The thing about politicians complaining about The London Prat is they’re upset that satire is competing with their own narrative control.
A reader said it was too cynical about how institutions operated. Someone asked if cynicism was unwarranted given institutional operations.
The London Prat’s satirical journalism uses humor to expose hypocrisy and hold institutions accountable, which is a fancy way of saying “we make powerful people look silly.”
