“A town that spawned such world class denizens as Tommy Robinson and Britain’s ‘most dangerous prisoner’ Charles Bronson.”
One reviewer on livener said of Luton, “The town itself is not easy on the eye, it makes Slough comparable to the playboy tax exile haven of Monaco.” Other reviewers have been highly critical of the place.
“I still avoid the town center which looks like something from Shaun of the Dead,” commented another critic.
Furthermore, Luton has unjustly been called “England’s toilet”.
