I used to go to Moston in the 70s ,it was a lovely place the house's were well kept and the people were very friendly .Like most adea's it has been starved of investment,nothing for the young .And has for dumping the local gready councils and central goverment,should be held accountable, charging the already cash stapped public silly amounts for removeing rubbish. North and north west has become a sess pit .

I have lived here at the scrap yard for half a lifetime and its not always been this way, my mar has been here all her life too once upon a time people scrubbed the concrete floors because if your front and back of your house wasn't clean you would have been run out of town, everyone on your street or estate would have been talking about you because we used to have unwritten laws and they rarely were enforced because people respected them, and now they don't, the one thing you didn't want to be in your life was talk of the street therefor these laws kept themselves unless you destroy them and man have they been destroyed. If you dump the cities scum, and shit in a concentrated area well, stands to reason that shit and scum is what you will get....

Born and bred in Moston. Moved out 2 years ago. The problem being, the place used to be lovely, but the government wanted a nice area from the city centre to the airport, so all the shite from South Manchester got moved to places like Moston. It's now sadly a shithole. But no worse than some places in scouse land Billy lad. Lol.. Scott A the kid in the vid I have known since being 6,he has an alcahol problem but a nice kid all the same. To be honest Bill seeing it like this breaks my heart. It was once really thriving. Cracking boozers and shops. The stabbings have mostly Been gang related, with a gang called m40. Aitch the rapper used to knock about with them all before he was famous. But thankfully he has done well for himself and not gone down that road. The kid who died was called John, a nice kid away from the gang. The kids who done him are all in the knick now doing long sentences. You know what aswell mate, with this cost of living etc, things are going to get worse not better, hence why I moved to the States.

Stab victim is an old friend of mine and can only be described as salt of the earth.

I've been a resident of Harpurhey for 50 years and have seen my fair share of life in these poor areas. Not too long ago, the good people outnumbered the bad 100/1 But these days I'm afraid it's more like 50/50, yes, of course I'm eggaerateing but it really seems like it. I stand by my description of most of the residents are salt of the earth.

You`re right Billy home is where the heart is and it`s about being comfortable with your surroundings and knowing the people. Where I live there has been in the last few years, burnt out car on the main road where the shops are, the morrisons shop gets stuff pinched practically on a daily basis, local premier shop has a few thefts and at least 3 robberies within the last couple of years as well as two ram raids possibly three, there was a great Indian curry house but got set on fire and to be honest it looked like it had been hit with a cruise missile such was the damage done to it, it`s got a few crackheads running around as well as others who are doing drugs. Thing is I love the place I couldn`t imagine wanting to live anywhere else. I know that sounds daft but I`m comfortable here and I love the place.

Moston recived about 100 new properties and housed the same people of the generationaly unemployed. It's the town time forgot. One of the most ugly spots in Manchester and has 0 investment from public or private parties. It's a seriously boring place for adults and children. Sad but true.

Quick facts about Moston, Harperhey and the surrounding areas. Just down the road is a town called Openshaw. Openshaw once had a massive industrial area, steelworks, gas works and others, and employed men and women from all over Manchester but predominately from the Eastern parts of Manchester. I know this cause my dad was a steelworker in Openshaw. The high streets were littered with shops galore as well as hundreds of pubs. There was a real community in these towns. And in 1979, Maggie got into power. Most of the industrial works were closed down. Men and women made redundant. The high streets started to crumble. The local MPs were fcuking useless. No new industries came to East Manchester. The 1980s were bleak, and even the UN got in on the act when it released its yearly report on global poverty and mentioned Gorton (just down the road from Moston) as a very depraved area. Communities fell apart. Industrial buildings were pulled down as was homes classed as slums. Pubs that had stood on their own spots for over a century were pulled down. And this has continued through to 2024. You'll notice a lot of open spaces in Moston. Green areas. These were once houses or work places. Long pulled down and forgotten about. My dad is now 88 and now and again I take him to were his works once was, and he always gets teary eyed at the state of the street around that old steelworks. I don't have the answers on Moston etc, there are generations living their since 1979 that have been unemployed or in and out of work coupled with an MP that claims a salary under false pretences. No one takes pride in those streets anymore because its gone to far, and the council don't do street cleaning or weed killing anymore.

I've been to Mexico and it was quite pleasant actually.

Moston Lane is predominantly African. Observable fact

Vile living billy , councils do sod all but the leaders of the coucils pick up 200 grand a year , plus bonuses of thousands..they should be , by law commited to tour these estatesseveral times a year and as part of there idle wealth they should live in any empty houses for a period or they get no bonus and cuts in wage. Then they may do some good ..i despair, i am 74 this year but give me a flatbed , and on my own i could clear rubbish and give people hope. Out of site out of mind are councils..

Once upon a time in Moston.. a great read..

"Take it to a fouchckchen skchckckip" do u know how much it would cost to shift that to Liverpool m8

billy you look like a dept collector 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Grew up with in moston most people would consider it very rough And I had a few scrapes growing up but I enjoyed my time there as a kid

Thanks for finding my old woman’s knickers billy

Used to work the market in Moston, must be something in the water 🤣

The homeless guy at asda is genuine hes alright usually sits at maccies. Theres a guy with one leg who used to draw you stood there infront of him

Pretty sure a channel called looking glass cover this and Manchester its eye opening for sure

So it’s really down to you that people can really see how bad places can be but where these crap these good people too

You need to get to Crackadilly gardens and interview Crutchie🤣🤣

He will even do a head stand 😅

You missed the - how should I phrase it? - divided communities. Moston Lane is unrecognisable from 10 years ago.

Moston Lane is 85 percent Nigerian but that's a guess.

Moston Lane was good when I was younger. It’s now been taken over and one of the shops had no whites in the window. That shop got shot up. Gill street Gang ran it round there when I was younger.

Hahaa the guy with the ginger beer he sees it all got some story’s him always chilling at the go local

Id cry if i had to go there

I went to school in Moston for 2 years It was a rough school

"Is this a violent area?" "Oh no, it isn't...well it is over there - " points across the road - "there was a murder and all sorts."

The asda/macdonalds car park is like crck city nowadays

Moston was nice in the 70s when I was growing up there.

Lived in moston for a month or two in the 90s and was shot at over a tenner bagga swag, it made me laugh it's not violent but two murders, he stabbed up and a paving stone over his crust , wouldn't like to see violent.😆😆.
