You must live in a different leeds, in a different yorkshire, in a different uk to me....

likewise. Leeds is nothing more than a provincial town living in the shadow of Manchester.

Firstly, club-wise. Yes lots of clubs if you are heterosexual and like being scared by drunken yobs fighting it out with literally or with their mating rituals throughout the centre.

2. There is no shopping centre of any description in Leeds and you can hardly equate White Rose Centre to Meadowhall, Arndale, Metro centre etc. plsu places like H nicks are in many other cities now anyway.

3. These financial jobs have just undelrined the difference and inequyality in this city. All you get are yet more yuppie flats in their gated communities costing £250,000K each or more appearing all the time and they can't find people to live in them because there isn't the prosperity here that people think there is.

4. Tourist destination? How on earth do you fathom that? York is the tourist destination in Yorkshire and there is nothing to see in Leeds.

Manchester is the capital of the north and the Uk's third city with Birmingham being second and Leeds is just a privincial city like the others in Yorkshire like Bradford and Wakefield. As Rat researcher says, you must be living in a different Leeds to the rest of us.
