My mom and dad were both born in Manchester in the 1920's they moved to upstate New York in 1950 where me and my sister were born, my dad passed away in 2016 and he considered great Britain as home until he passed.

Manchester has changed, even though i live in Bollington, through relationships i know Urmston, and Trafford park, but thats recently, even my village has changed, the community spirit has died. The pubs are still there, but id know no one in them. America, that too, i know North carolina, and California, which i didnt like. I expect it isnt the same either?

Thank you so much for posting. What wonderful memories this brings back. The days when a ten year old could walk safely around the city waiting for the all night bus (One an hour double fare) Lewis's and Woolworths in Piccadilly and Ryburns down Market Street. Wow! What sort of world do we have now?

@anthonykeaveny8860 5 жыл бұрын

And the Lovely 'Ladies' , with beautiful clothes, hair, make-up , (Unknown in those days) , who walked up and down Lewis s Arcade until the Street Offences Act spoiled it all for me and my friends (12 years old) on our way to The Disc in Lewis basement to listen to Pop Records ! Home to a freezing cold house with a little coal fire in the kitchen, and waiting for dark to try to get Luxembourg , ( Or sometimes WKBW ) on our ancient wireless.

Census information since 1991 shows that the White British proportion of Manchester's population has declined as follows; 1991 85% 2001 74% 2011 59% Given this rate of decline the British will by now be an ethnic minority in Manchester and it can no longer be considered a British city in any meaningful sense.
