You have your Newports all mixed up. The Newport you're referring is Newport Gwent not Newport Pembrokeshire. Both are in Wales. Your images are of Newport Gwent, Pillgwenlly is a community in Newport Gwent but it's a docks town on the mouth of the River Usk. Newport Pemrokeshire is a very nice little village in North Pembrokshire.
Was surprised to see Hastings on the list, but not Middlesborough. Most of these towns were of course busy and affluent during the industrial revolution, and no adequate industry or technicality has been found to take the place of steel, iron, cotton etc. Can only imagine that Dagenham is on the list now that Ford cars are no longer producing in bulk. Good informative video...thanks
FYI it's Middlesbrough NOT Middlesborough! It peeves me when I see surveys like this!! Our local Mayor and Tees Valley Mayor are working hard to bring investment to the area and are successful in this venture! I live in a paid for 4 bedroomed house with front and rear gardens. How many folk in London and surrounding area can say the same??? I HATE THESE BULLSHIT SURVEYS!!!! I am proud of my home town!!
@@Nanafifi1 sorry to have spelt your town wrong. I live in Berlin since 1988. As for Middlesbrough by all means a good area to live, especially sensible house prices. These surveys on towns depict not always the good parts unfortunately. An old mate of mine lives and works there. He doesnt complain
Hastings used to have a fishing industry and smoke houses. Perhaps there's no main industry there now. It's not very touristy compared to other Sussex towns despite having a beach. It's full of English chavs. St Leonard's is the posh end of Hastings, it's pleasant. There is the old Hastings high street area that's nice, they have a good few antique centres. The main museum is really worth a visit too.
I don't understand why so many coastal towns are almost derelict in the UK. In most countries, seaside locations should be prime real estate. In the UK so many are tawdry and trapped in the past. Look at Whitehaven in Cumbria. It could be a gem of a Georgian fishing port on the coast of the Lake District, but the only vision for investment there is to open a new coal mine.....
I'm from Grimsby, and I'm almost insulted my home town isn't on here, somewhere. 😂 I'll tell you something... Grimsby, like most of the towns on this list, is rich in one resource... Good people. They know they're bottom-of-the-pile, but what they have is each other.

Please work on good and clean oil and gas explorations and extractions, good and clean coal minings, minerals minings, silica sand minings. Electricity and energy prices will increase a lot again. Gods (Aliens who created and manage this Universe and Earth) will remove all remaining nuclear fuels from Earth, so all nuclear power plants and nuclear medical devices will stop working very soon. There will be power outages worldwide. Aliens (Gods who created and manage this Universe and Earth) bless, to clean up the bad people. Aliens removed nuclear materials, caused the failure of 24 satellites of the European Union Galileo satellite navigation system on July 11th, 2019, power outages in New York Manhattan on July 13th, 2019, power outages in most of the UK on August 9th, 2019, and power outages in Japan on March 16th, 2022. In August 1945, the United States detonated two nuclear explosions in Japan. On August 17th, 1945, the wind blew the nuclear fallout across the ocean to China. Chinese men worked in the fields, topless and exposed to the nuclear dust. More Chinese died as a result of the two nuclear bombs than the Japanese. Chinese women hid in their homes and wore clothes. Chinese widows were everywhere. The population of China was only 400 million. There was a misconception that it was a plague, the flu, and other diseases. The nuclear fallout spread to Spain and Britain. King George VI of the United Kingdom was also attached by nuclear dust under his lower right rib and died soon after. Most obesities in the USA are because people have forgotten the victims of nuclear war. Need to apologize and use thoughts to retrieve the nuclear bombs. The Manhattan Project produced two different types of atomic bombs, code-named Fat Man and Little Boy. Nuclear material causes aging, cancer, bad teeth, death, reincarnation, and gravity. Nuclear is used by the devils. This is a real devil possessing. Please no nuclear. Global warming is because human-made nuclear explosions have resonated and destroyed the Sun since 1945. Gods (aliens who created and manage this Universe) have been repairing the Sun since July 13th, 2002. Gods have been pulling Earth away from the Sun since June 3rd, 2017. Since March 23rd, 2019, Gods have been taking nuclear particles away from Earth to stop nuclear wipeouts and nuclear disasters. Earth will be cooler to the 1973 level. Gravity is caused by nuclear materials. If Earth has no nuclear materials, Earth will have nearly no gravity. Greenhouse gas will flow further away from the Earth’s surface. Earth will be cooler and more comfortable to live in. Global oil and gas prices and electricity prices jack up because nuclear power plants worldwide are nearly all broken and unable to generate electricity. The Gods who created and manage this Universe (aliens) made oil, gas, coal, and minerals. Please use these energies. Gods recycle the landfills, trash, plastics, waste, sewage, and the dead body of water creatures under the crust to make oil, gas, and minerals. Gods use flying saucers to compress dead trees and plants under the soil to make coals. So Gods can bring better asteroid soil and better seeds to Earth to upgrade Earth. Most asteroids are worth hundreds of millions or billions or trillions. God bless, I do oil, gas, coal, and Solar resonators. Please do not use hydropower dams. They caused environmental damages and fishes extinct; also increased parasites, more angry cows, animals and humans, and more diseases; also increased landslides, risk of dam collapse and other disasters. Gods are removing the dams. Gods have arrived. Lots of aliens from other Planets and other Universes have arrived and landed on Earth. They are judging and taking away bad people for reeducation. If you want to talk to God and ask God to help, you must be vegan. Killing and eating meat, egg, and honey and using animal and insect products is very bad. It is disrespectful of life. It is the worst karma in the Universe. Gods do not like it. You ask God to read Akashic records to solve your problems and your ancestors’ problems one by one. Pyramids are good. Detoxification. In my dream, my whole family pooped and pooped a lot. You can print out the pyramid photos. Think about it. Put the photos in the bedroom, toilet, kitchen, and workplace. With clean pyramid photos, you can see better too. If you genuinely want to do good for humanity and Earth, stop nuclear. Whoever wants to use nuclear power or nuclear material is possessed by real devils. The real devil looks like a combination of a pig, seal, and chimpanzee. Aliens kill the devils. Their dead bodies stink. That is why the ocean is stinky. North Pole arctic water is freshwater because aliens purify them. Niagara Falls near the USA and Canada, and Lake Tai in China are two connection points of the enormous water purification and filtration system. You can go there to hear the sound of alien cargo. It sounds like train cargo. Gods remove nuclear materials to avoid a nuclear wipeout. Otherwise, within about 200 years, people either use nuclear weapons to wipe self out again, or with pesticides, or gene editing. guestbook.lingpai.org/d/30-move-the-himalayas-to-the-pacific-ocean-to-build-et-base-island guestbook.lingpai.org/d/93-the-project-of-changing-heaven-and-earth
Oops. You locked it in and said Newport, in Pembrokeshire. The pictures are of Newport in Gwent, and the areas referred to are areas of Newport in Gwent
Suprised to see Dagenham on the list. I've lived here for 35 years and seen it change for the worse since 2000, thank you Mr Blair, but didnt realise it had got that bad. Time to move!
Poverty is everywhere. What shines is highlighted through the media. Very emotionally connecting video. Very good English with clear and fine anchoring. Thanks.
YEP poverty everwere inc in southwest , BATH/ BRISTOL , DEVON , CORNWALL . LOT TO DO WITH RIGHT WING CONSERVATIVES 1920 S NEOLIBRAIL 2 TIER POLITICS 1979/ 1997&201-/2024 . FAR RIGHT POLITICS PURE EVIL SELFISH GREEDY AROGENT OK YAH .
@@jackcrookes2002 They've mixed up Newport Gwent and Newport Pembrokeshire. They're talking about Newport Gwent, I know because I;m from there but they mention that Newport is in Pemrokeshire, there is a Newport in Pemrokeshire but it's actually really nice and very small.
I live in Dagenham, and although I agree that it is somewhat deprived relative to other places in the Greater London area, nonetheless it is a dormitory town for central London hence people here can access well paid jobs. It's a high immigration area, which might be part of the reason for its inclusion on your list
i couldn't agree more with you I think that Dagenham is one of the nicest refuse landfill sites and Victorian outside toilets in the country.i wouldn't hesitate to dump my household waste and bin bags there if I ever became desperate and poor.i really rate Dagenham and can never understand why so many people slate it so badly I put it up there with Mogadishu,diepsloot,Soweto and rotherham.my friend used to live in Dagenham but he died from malnutrition,malaria and rickets.he was only twelve.he used to say that it was a brilliant place to live.i'd move there myself but I can't afford to live there,it's a very expensive area.chips and beans,with a mug of tea can set you back nearly half a crown!even if you don't wear one!
Political parties in the UK have allowed this to go on, it started with privatisation of British tax payers infrastructures being sold cheap to allow a minority wealthy group get more wealthy. All political parties are responsible.
"This town which got its name from the Battle of Hastings which took place in 1066, 13 kilometers northwest of Senlac Hill, is now one of the poorest in the United Kingdom" - Hastings, the town, got it's name before the battle, the battle was named after Hastings because that was the closest settlement of any note - the battle didn't take place 13km NW of Senlac Hill, it took place ON Senlac Hill (13km NW of Hastings) Watch these videos to learn garbled history!
Also those industries that have closed due to cheaper goods made abroad by low or non paid workers has not helped this country either. Maybe we should all be now employed by banking sector who manage to make billions without sharing with the whole UK.
One of the main sources of employment is by reopening industries and other ways of employment in other for the rate of unemployment to reduce and it reduces crime rate in the country , I’m kraig how are you doing?
@@kraigken3733 Hi, Kraig. I imagine a world without problems of finance for everyone, no unemployment. Everyone with everything they require or need at time of need. A kind of heaven on earth. 😇Without restraints from religion or ideology. Have a good life Kraig.
Blackpool is still an amazing place full of amazing people it's just a pity that it does attract the low life drug user people who refuse to work and so bring the place down in parts but that can be said about all seaside towns.
I'm convinced some of the pictures used to represent Knowsley are actually of my particular "crap town" of residence, namely Bolton. I see the North -West has three out of the top ten, nay top six, poorest towns in the uk. Surely making it the country's poorest overall region?
The labour government found out that poverty and family breakups is the causes of crime, particularly petty crime and it was this that drove them to help businesses to continue to compete with cheaper imports. They found that it was far cheaper to help families financially to stay together rather than end up filling the orphanages and homeless centres. This was the basis of the welfare system which was designed to help both unemployed and employees on low income. Homeless was no longer a big problem as councils were authorised to help with affordable ccommodation keeping families together. Unfortunately, commercial companies started using this to get employees to work for less knowing that the state would make their money up. This was the a cause for much controversy as others defined it as giving state help to ailing businesses and, as this meant businesses had to show that they couldn't afford to pay the employees more, most businesses decided not to improve or modernise. This situation was happening to all industries in the UK from Rolls Royce and British Aerospace to the shipbuilding and railways and coal production as well as agriculture. Every major industry and company were run down to conform so it could continue to claim benefits from the taxes. Not one single major company could've existed without government help often saving it from bankruptcy. Others called it state intervention and condemned for interfering in competition rules. When the EU took over it tried to ban state help in commercial companies, the result was huge losses of manufacturing with whole economies becoming bankrupt and destitution and poverty rose. After 40 plus years of tory rule we are back to square one.
@@warrenaitken1908 Absolute bullshit. It was the tories who degraded the family unit losing its integrity and denying the spouse their rights to independence. The evil Thatcher removed the wife's allegation of association to her husbands aledged crime. At one time the law did not apply association for her spouse's crimes. The Conservative Party is a true party of EVIL.
Badly researched in a lot of ways especially Newport, and I love how he talks about South "KIRK"by 😂 People from around that area have always referred to it as South Kirby.. Finally the thing that annoys me the most is way does he feel he has to describe distance in Kilometres??? We have miles in the UK..proper units of measure 👍
I think some of the seaside towns in England is down because air travel is much easier and cheaper to travel abroad so of course it's going to effect the local economy there
So what has Labour ever done for these places? The places they have always counted on for votes. Have they invested in industry and education? Have they improved the housing? Have they reacted to what our nation needs to compete in a competitive world? The way out of this is through recognition that education equates to opportunity....the world has moved on. The politicians need to move too.
@@familiecole Give the Cons a chance, they have only been in power for 12 years and they do have plans and promised us so much, we must be patient. Our great great grandchildren will be living in luxury, so if most of us starve to death then that is a small price to pay.
Not sure what responsibilty the opposition has but it is the Goverment that is supposed to rule... Before the 2010 election it was Labours responsibilty sure but that was 12 years ago?
@@familiecole was labour's when they were in power. Did nothing for Dagenham when they controlled govt and the local council has always been Labour and its a dump
Ce n'est pas parce qu'il n'y a pas de travail dans un endroit que pour cela cet endroit est pauvre, car j'habite dans un village avec très très peu d'emploi mais les habitants vont travailler bien plus loin et donc les habitants du village ne sont pas du tout pauvres
Why is Merthyr Tydfil having a hammering again my home town is no worse than many other towns in the country can think of many places worse in the UK than Merthyr
"And as usual, the towns in Northern Ireland remain in the middle, even in this too-not the richest, not the poorest. So you can’t find them here." The North had 30 years of Civil War and Sectarian Violence, yet it is still doing better then other parts of the UK.... Due to the GFA the economy of the North went from a Gross Regional Domestic Product of £19.8 billion in 1998 to £43.7 billion in 2020, with a forecast go up to £66 billion (GDP) in the next decade.
Most people in these towns are on benefits. People on benefits are not badly off. They are better off on benefits than someone slugging their guts out for £10.50 an hour at Amazon. And benefits people have just had a 10% payrise from the government, more than workers are getting.
This country and Government are broken! Companies who make billions profit are paying min wage. The taxpayer is subsidising these companies! You're right,wages are so low what's the point in working,there are any well paid jobs in these areas. People on benefits are badly off ,but it's better than a low paid job!
Universal Credit (i.e. people on benefits) ranges between £265 - £525 per month. That's equivalent to working at Amazon for £1.66 - £3.28 per hour. Get your facts straight.
None of these towns look or sound as bad as where I live, economically. Why not venture inland, away from the seafront and big historic builds. Look at places like Burslem...
The Newport that is featured IS NOT in Pembrokeshire, West Wales. It is Newport in GWENT, South Wales. What a mistake you have made - get your facts right!!!!
No worries all the illegal immigrants crossing the channel are in luxury hotels! That is the most important thing to the government. 7 million pounds a day it costs the British taxpayer!
It's really sad when you consider how much money each day is being spent on immigrants coming across the channel. I know I'm sticking my neck out with this comment as some will see it as being receist, which I can assure you I'm not
Quite a naive comment. There's poor all over the world. There shouldn't be poor in the UK. It's down to people putting themselves into poverty though. Through choosing drugs and alcohol.
@@benconner884 I have been homeless & so f**king poor you would not believe. below poverty levels quite some time. Lots of my friends are also poor. I grew up on a very rough council estate. I know the troubles people have. Mine are not just observed behaviour, but lived too, amongst folk with many issues including drugs. I go out & help. WTF do you know...?
And who governed this country for the past 12 years?? If the Tories could do it so much better, why haven’t they demonstrated their superior powers and help those people?
