There were some Great British Replies™ to this dumb comment about London ‘no go’ zones
We don’t know much about this chap called Dwight Nave, except that it looks like he’s an American, a Christian, and a big fan of Donald Trump. Which might explain why he said this on Twitter.
Fortunately for Dwight and everyone else there was no shortage of Brits happy to put him right, and every entertaining it was too.

The only "no-go" area in London is Hamleys during school holidays and that's only advisory because it's bedlam.

M&M’s World is a definite no-go area for me. Anyone who goes there should be excommunicated from life.

Anywhere within 50m of branch of Lush qualifies as a no-go zone for me; their smellies make me feel unwell

Can you name the made-up London no-go zones please? I’ll wait. I’m sure I’ll be waiting a long time.

Burtings Green? Pemble? Tillenham? I haven't been able to go to any of these places.

You guys talk of this ‘no go’ areas, but never tell us where they are. I live in London, they sound super exciting! Details please. I have Indiana Jones scenes I need to enact!!

I lived next to a so called ‘white no-go area’ once and it was terrifying. School run mums dressed in Muslim clothing repeating, “Hiya duck!” At me daily whilst my fiancé discussed the finer points of beard maintenance with the guys. It was so scary.

Wonder if Dwight has ever visited London, or left the USA, or his state or even owns a passport.

I sincerely hope the answer to all of those questions is no.

Aaah I see. I'm an atheist, and therefore have been able to walk around London at will. Do they have some kind of hi tech sensor to detect Christians? Or do they just turn away people carrying bibles and wearing crosses and sandals?

I'm guessing you're one of the 64% of Americans who don't own a passport.

There is no such thing as a no-go zone in the UK.

As an Englishman in North Wales I was subjected to the occasional hard stare but that's about it!

Oh, and this.
Completely untrue FACT CHECK: Did London Close 500 Churches and Open 423 New Mosques?https://t.co/DYB8iiQgle
