Bethnal Green 

An area in the East End of London, located in the borough of Tower Hamlets, with the post code E2.

A lively area with many sub-continental shops such as Bangladeshi fruit and Veg shops, Saree and Indian Gold Shops, along with the traditional British Market Stalls.

The area is predominantly full of Bangladeshi people, making up 45% of the local areas population, whilst white poeple have a 38% population.

What was once a hub for the National Front, who used to terrorise the local Bangladeshi's (even killing one: Altab Ali), has now become an ugly battlefield for young Asian Youths.

Gangs such as Turin Street Massive, White Flatz, Shoreditch Massive, Green Bangerz and Fellows Court all roam the streets in this relatively small geographical area.

In the last couple of years, crime has been on the increase such as racial assualts, mugging people, teenage stabbings, turf war, priests getting attacked and even 2 murders!

In Tower Hamlets, Bethnal Green accounts for most of the boroughs crime. It has now eclipsed the former notorious gang "Brick Lane Massive".

Altogether, when these gangs combine they are known as "€2 Cartel......we got it on lock". These gangs have been very deadly, having brutal gang warefare in North London, especially Hollaway Road and in South London with the Peel Dem Crew (PDC)

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.

Pee Calculus

When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
