OPINION - Pimlico is obviously London’s best place to live, but should I even be telling people this?

I’m not being funny but… I love Pimlico. Contrary to what some people who read my column each week seem to believe, I am a Londoner through and through. I think because I was born and raised here, I get quite protective over my home. I love it dearly and feel lucky to have a platform that could maybe, just maybe help affect a bit of change for the better. But that’s now what I’m here to talk about today.

Back in 1965, I was born in the village of Pimlico, central London. My family soon moved out to Battersea and over the years I’ve lived just about everywhere in London and beyond. Clapham, Soho, Highgate, Islington, the list goes on.
