Crime, racism, child poverty, hooliganism and gambling*
All pretty much highest in London.
Hillsborough whinging is Scousers - they're not allowed to be included as they're dole scum grief athletes.
Whippet owning? Couldn't get the stats.
*from the data I could find - London and the aforementioned Scousers are possibly neck-and-neck.
