They say you can tell a person’s personality through their sneakers. Well, obviously we don't use the term ‘sneaker.' I’m not going to lie, I have a shoe fetish. Supra, Nike, Zara and Puma are all the type of shoes I love and will never stop wearing, (if I can get them cheap). I don't spend more than £40 on trainers, a simple principle I have always kept. Firstly because EMA will not allow it and a normal pair of trainers would have been 2 weeks of EMA which if I still had it, I would rather spend on chicken. As much as I love my trainers, I have never let that define who I am.

School kids fighting on the bus, tags all over walls, bus stands covered in broken glass and youths in hoodies passing drugs to each other. It's all a normal sight on a trip to college here in London. The vicious cycle of gang culture has lead to 26 young people being killed in 2008 and the figure is looking to double or triple this year and next. Police have identified there to be 190 known gangs, and London is statistically more dangerous than New York. A quarter of gangs are said to have been involved in murder. Half involved in serious assault. This is severe.
