    Not surprised to see Stockport listed in number 3. Used to live there right ****hole tbh. Not far from Chester now, which is apparently much safer

    When they say London in these quotes it always makes me wonder how much or how little of London is included.

    People should use this information for profiling purposes (i.e. if you live in that area, you are more likely to steal/murder/etc)

    Re: Endsleigh survey names Britain's burglary hotspots

    well like endsleigh are a bunch of wriggling cants who make it as difficult as possible to make your legitimate claim, slowing it down at every turn until you accept a gesture of good will thats half your policy value............

    but anyway, there is little merrit in taring a whole town, let alone a city with the same brush. As much as i'd like to make jokes based on regional sterotypes, i feal i can't in all honesty do so.

    so crap insurance firm, crap statistics from crap insruance firm.

    Re: Endsleigh survey names Britain's burglary hotspots

    Manchester & Leeds are top 10 safest for household accidents.

    Why?

    Because some chav scummer has nicked the contents already.
