Default Banglatown: calls to rename East End station


As far as I remember there are some other sizeable minorities living
in Spitalfields/Shoreditch, so it is also a bit discriminatory
suggestion.

Are we going to rename the 4 stations on Oxford Street
"West End Big Shopping Street Stn 1/2/3/4"?


In the pattern of original suggestion we could have:
Golders Green - JewsTown
Vauxhall - GayClubsTown
Hyde Park Corner - SomeRussiansLivingNearbyTown (in Mayfair)

Disclaimer: I only used minorities to which I belong, so this is not
racism, this is self-criticism. Thank you, I'll be here all week.
