Unfriendly London

From Yahoo:
"Tourists find London unfriendly, dirty and expensive - survey"

London may have put on a cheerful face during the Olympics but tourists have still rated the city poorly in terms of friendliness, cleanliness and value for money, a survey showed on Thursday.
Of 40 cities worldwide, London this year ranked second to last for the friendliness of its locals, according to a poll by travel website TripAdvisor. Only Moscow fared worse, while Mexico's Cancun ranked first. Britain's capital barely performed better in the nine other categories of the poll, ranking 28th for safety, 26th for cleanliness and 35th for best value for money. On the upside, London was rated fourth best city for shopping - behind New York City, Bangkok and Dubai - and fifth for the quality of taxi services.
             
  ^ I have been to London many times and the only part that I really do not like is Heathrow Airport. The majority of people I have dealt with there are very rude and stupid. On the top of that list is the people hired to help the disabled and the people at the BMI lounge. I try to avoid Heathrow whenever I can, but sometimes I hve to go through it to someplace else. ^
