Boston's a remote part of the UK, as is a lot of Lincolnshire. So it's tough to get to even by car. The people who live there were part of a homogenous community until the arrival in large numbers of agricultural workers from Eastern Europe. The culture shock has been real for many of them. The economic benefits of EU membership and freedom of movement to the UK aren't in question, but the problem was that it didn't filter down to the community that lived there and Boston is one of the poorest parts of the UK. The people there didn't get to share in the benefits of EU membership in the way London and other big cities did. So it became easy to blame the immigrants and dismiss the EU as a good thing. This is the fault of successive UK governments rather than the EU itself. The referendum became an opportunity to express dissatisfaction with the national government. Years of underinvestment (public transport being a case in point) led to this. The fact that things haven't got much better in Boston post-Brexit will only add to the sense of resentment.
As a Sleafordian, it's only partly this. You see, those jobs people are saying "aren't getting filled, despite people moaning about immigrants taking them", we want to, but the agencies that hired the immigrants have exclusivity contracts with a lot of farmers, so we can't. And because we won't settle for the level of employee abuse these agencies show (and I mean, everything shy of actually whipping and beating you), we don't dare join them. And worst of all is that we'd been campaigning for years to reform these agencies and make them more humane. Both the UK and EU legislature had a hand in the quashing of our voices.
@@idcgaming518 It's absolutely horrendous trying to work in such places if you're not from an Eastern European country, in my experience. You get treated like dirt, shunned, mocked and abused in foreign languages, are given the worst jobs, and basically bullied out. I never had anything against Polish, Lithuanian, Latvian, etc. people but honestly 95% of those I've worked with are absolutely vile.
And now as Bostonians and many other places undeservedly scapegoated the EU for what are wholly British problems, they now still have to solve their own problems and no longer have all the advantages of EU membership. Never has a country paid so much for what will be so long for it's proud ignorance
@@sarahann530 No, many are multinational companies. And even the British-based ones are still owned by global Capitalists, and doing business with supermarkets also owned by global Capitalists. And they only prefer Eastern Europeans as they can't get their hands on the type of workers that are prepared to slave away in lithium mines for 14 hours a day, just to avoid starvation. Yet, anyway.
Good piece mate! I note that on your list of "most Brexit places in the UK" my boyhood home district, Thurrock, came 4th. That's why I now live on Glasgow's sunny Southside! Keep up the good work my friend. Am particularly enjoying the town planning vids
"......jobs British people might not want to do" Yeah, that brought a sharp intake of breath. That market you mentioned, the one from the 12th century........it sold vegetables picked in local fields, by British people. Just because you look at a job and think that you don't want to do it, please don't think that no Brit will want to. What has changed is the wages. In real terms, land workers wages have decreased massively. For instance, in 1995, I earned £265 in a week doing planting as a summer job. A person will probably earn similar now. Saying all of that, I appreciated your review of our little town. You were kind and fair about the place. PS literally everyone living in Boston hate Brylaine buses lol
I lived and worked in the Boston area for nearly right years. The people were largely the same: unfriendly and aggressive, and the best thing that ever happened was finally leaving the dreadful place.
I'm a Lincolnshireite and lived not far from Boston until a couple of years ago when I moved to London. It's gobsmacking how hugely improved the quality of life is in London as a result of the difference in cost of transport and improved infrastructure! On the Brexit note, from personal experience as a result of having a father who worked the land, local farm owners in the area capitalised for years on the low cost of EU employment and tethering the minimum wage (which forced my Dad into another profession for a short time). Integration in the area was also very limited due to reductions in proper support, so it literally became a melting pot, primed for a disinformation campaign. It's sad really, these places were left for such a long time - the term "Historic Market Town" almost became synonymous for "town left to rot through lack of funding"! With that being said I know the place has some incredibly kind, community driven people despite the bad rep it gets and I really appreciated your balanced take on the place! 🙏🏻
I lived and worked in Boston about 20 years ago and the people there are some of the most aggressive, angry, and pessimistic people around. Not all, but most.
Boston should never be shown in a good light, its an absolute shit hole 😅 it's got worse over the years, I used to live there and was bad 10 years ago, I visited last year, worst town I've ever seen in the uk, absolute doss hole, full of foreigners.
You should really have a day out to Lincoln on its own, such a different place to Boston. Lincoln is the only city in the entire county and steeped with history and blended really well with modern infrastructure. Happy to to be one of the 24% that voted remain in Boston. Some very good points you made about local transport etc. I find by train Boston’s actually not too badly connected, as soon as you get to Grantham the country is your Oyster (not the card 😂) Always great to see what visitors say about the town you live in. Great job.
You don’t need to take a bus from Boston. There are train running. You can take a train from London to Skegness with changing at Peterborough and Gratham
I’m originally from Romania but I’ve lived in England for almost all my life, so I picked up the accent. The funniest thing is when people start ranting about foreigners to me saying “they’re stealing our jobs” etc, to which I tell them where I’m from. I’ve never seen people back pedal so fast 😂
Lived about 15 miles outside Boston in the Fens for 30 years before finally moving to Boston 7 years ago. You're absolutely bang on with the transport problem, so little info on transport services drives me nuts. It's the same with lots of other services too. The people in charge just don't seem to think about what others might deem to be important. Made some good friends from various eastern bloc countries, all my neighbours are from all over Europe. Great bunch of people.
Great video mate! Boston seems to have connections to Nottingham too which had good connections to the Midland Mainline and places like Leicester, London and the North
Yeah, I originally thought it would be easier to EMR it to Nottingham, but wow how long it takes haha. I think most people on that day going to Skegness came from Nottingham!
@@SomeoneExplores yeah Nottingham has many branch lines too with services to Leeds, Manchester Sheffield, Worksop etc. I'm planning to do a Lincolnshire day ranger on the train at some point
I come from Boston and decided to -escape- study in Nottingham. The culture difference from travelling 50 miles on a train is insane, I'm much happier here. Also, a lot of Notts people talk about going to Skeg, think it's just cause it's the easiest seaside town to get to from here
I grew up around Boston and skeggy. I moved 20 years ago. Also Brylane with contactless payment lol . Firstly i`m still shocked they are still around also i think they only started issuing printed tickets recently lol
I would like to tell you about this part of England. I was born in England and have lived here all my life but if you come from the next village to the one where you live let alone a foreign country like Scotland, Wales or London (God forbid) you will be unwelcome and people will distance themselves and not speak to you. This is the most unfriendly and unwelcoming part of the UK. They even have completely different speech patterns and accents from villages as close as four miles apart. They will not accept that the many Eastern European people who came here to work before the Brexit vote actually brought wealth into the area as well as doing jobs that the locals would not or could not carry out. Since Brexit those people are now being driven out and the area is in deep decline. So good luck Brexiteers you're going to need it.
I live in Boston in Lincolnshire, and I can honestly tell you the reason why people voted so highly to leave the EU around this area is because of the very high settlement rate of eastern Europeans which live in this area and they completely swamped the job market and they worked for gangs/agencies at discounted hourly rate compared to what the factors were paying for employees direct so around this area for the last 15, maybe 20 years we have seen what happens a lot more than some other parts of the country house rent prices. Go up hourly rate of pay in jobs go down the ability for local people to find a job harder, I’m not saying it’s impossible just harder so we have seen around this area. What happens when you let free movement of people and too many coming to one area not the fault of the people it was the fault of the stupid policies which are allowed it to happen. Free moving to people only works when a sensible amount of people come, that is sustainable and they are spread around the country in a very very diverse manner then regular jobs are regular people which are born in this country can still get a job at a sensible rate of pay people in London and some of the other big financial areas of the country, they would be just annoyed and pissed off if Eastern Europe were coming in but were fully trained and capable of doing all that type of work as well because they would send their jobs disappearing, but as it was most East Europeans come to the UK, a vast majority of them, make no attempt to learn the language or follow the rules/laws and most of them are completely unskilled, so they end up taking manual labour jobs, and when that happens in small, it becomes a pain in the arse
It shouldn't need spelling out, but the issue with mass immigration is it's driven by businesses that want the cheapest labour it can find - often east European. It's not a case of immigrants doing agricultural jobs UK citizens don't want, it's not being able to do it for the money employers can get away with paying thanks to the pool of imported labour. Very often UK citizens have financial commitments, like families & homes to fund, that immigrants don't have initially when arriving here. I promise you that the same immigrants who've settled & established themselves here, perhaps opened shops etc., are no more likely to take on the criminally underpaid work it's claimed UK citizens don't want. It's a slur against the indigenous population to suggest it's a UK worker's trait - stereotyping of the worst kind given the implied labels of laziness or snobbishness. Ironically the laziness & snobbishness on display is often that displayed by those (who themselves wouldn't take on such jobs) making spouting such nonsense. There's also the obvious & undeniable issue of the impact of a rapidly expanding population on services like GPs, hospitals, schools & housing. Personally I backed leave because, not being affected in the ways I just described, the issue for me was one of democracy. Diluting ones already weak to non-existent say in how one is governed is in my view an insult to past generations that worked so hard for representation. I'd go as far to say that anyone who doesn't value the unending quest to create a genuine democracy, & is willing to trade it for the few personal trinkets & baubles EU membership offers (ease of travel etc.) isn't worthy of having any kind of political say. That's my rant over! But uninformed, lazy misrepresentation of issues (yes, xenophobia undeniably figured) around Brexit needs to be challenged.
Duder when i were 12 i rode my bike to boston and back to oldleake most weekends. thankyou for givin me olde day vibes. Boring fact bennington was shhii even of it had the the olny roller disco about.
I moved to Boston a couple of months ago and love it here. I'm an old Anglo who voted Brexit and thinks Nigel Farage is the best thing since sliced bread. But before any left-wing muppets start calling me a racist bigot can I just point out that if I had a problem with diversity then I wouldn't have moved to Boston! I see no evidence of any community tensions in Boston, although the different communities very much stick to their own I don't see any friction going on. It's a very down-to-earth sort of town, hardly any middle-class 'Guardian' reading lefties, which is a massive plus as far as I'm concerned. My personal opinion is that the white British are slowly fading away and their replacement is historically inevitable. In which case, I am quite happy to live in a place where those replacing them are socially conservative, family-oriented Eastern Europeans.
I’m from Wainfleet (I don’t live there now and was on the train map at the start btw) and you’re spot on about the lack of good public transport because it’s such a rural area. If you don’t have a car, it’s quite expensive to go to places, so people generally don’t tbh. Being a yellowbelly has its perks tho lol
Actually locals DO want to do the agricultural work. They voted leave because they couldn't get those jobs which were on their doorstep. Employment agencies in the area employed directly from mainland EU. Not the local area, they did this to take advantage of gangmaster Contracts. Essentially legal slave wages. When I lived in the area. I looked for jobs local to me. Everyday for a decade. And never got one. I was commuting 50 miles each way to and from work, in the end. I left. I'd much rather live there and work there. But I can't physically get employed there because I can't use the employment agencies which supply workers for those jobs.
What a load of nonsense, theres plenty jobs advertised locally with farmers and producers struggling for decent workforce, i work in agriculture industry amd apllied for several jobs and was offered a job, i never went for them as pay wasn't anywhere near what i earn where i work. Its just looks more like excuses, i can personally walk u in to pur office where u will be offered job in agriculture with potential to earn 800-1000 and over a week, as our company also struggling with staff and never used agancies or foreign workforce. Question is, how long u will last in job and do u actually want to work or just want job
@@laurisgaluza9668 Which office is this? And do you still get ganged up, bullied, abuse screamed at you in foreign languages, threats of physical violence, etc. if you're British? Because that's been my experience of working with Eastern Europeans.
I worked in agricultural gangs all my life until the Tony Blair cheap labour came in we couldn't work for nothing and couldn't live 30 to an household we were all married men earning a good living until the ruination of the foreign cheap labour we worked hard and earned good money i speak to some of the farmers now the ones that shit all over the British gangs They're living to regret it now they need twenty foreign workers to do the same work as four used to do they wanted cheap labour they got it but there's a difference between getting the work done and cheap labour that sit and do nothing that's what they got most went bust
Ive grown up in this area with work people dont want to do. Many people did it, until early 2000s when agencies started only employing europeans. Prior it was often lower skilled people who did this work, and was a great way to still earn a fairly decent living, while perhaps not having some of the skills that others have.
When I worked around there, everyone was either drunk or speeding their tits off. Grading and packing carrots, etc was a job to do, to pay your gangmaster back for the 'lay-ons' and a weekend's clubbing. The foreigners are better workers than the average doley in Lincolnshire. It's as simple as that.
@@alfsmith4936 I remember back then when if you wanted to work on the land you would go into the Plough pub in North Hykeham and ask a man and you got on the bus the next morning. Most were on the dole. They was raided every so often. My mate`s dad was on the dole and racking it in.
@@damianbutterworth2434 We were all on the dole lol. Most the drivers were alcoholics too. I lived on West Parade so it was the Burton or Portland Arms when we fancied a bit of work. 😂
A very fair assessment - wishing you happiness, success and all good things but mostly happiness - top man. Btw, Mountains Butchers for sausage rolls every time.
lived in Boston through my childhood, can say nope. There's nothing to do other than drinking or drugs tbh and the local shops have been slowly shutting due to rent increase. Jobs are scarce too. I would not recommend it. That being said, having a large local hospital was quite nice
There's nothing wrong with having foreigners in this country you will always have foreigners, it goes back centuries. The problem you have is the government that you voted in power which is the Tories they are the ones you have to blame where there is no proper infrastructure and Investment within Boston!! It's a beautiful city to come to and one should be proud of it!!
Hey love this I am from Boston I voted remain 😉 just saying lol. I really your video it is really nicely done and I agree 100% with everything you are saying. I have just subscribed 😁
this fella has no idea! never crosses his mind that wages have been driven down by mass migration BOSTON in particular,! also rental price increases, less accomodation for locals, and because of the sheer numbers this once lovely market town is indistinguishable to many others in the UK! MIGRATION GOOD! MASS MIGRATION ABSOLUTELY NO GOOD!!!!
EU migration has destroyed the UK working class and their salaries. That is supported by every piece of research into the matter. If you were them, you'd have voted to end what has destroyed your jobs, your salaries, your family structures and your town. Further, liberty itself in the constitutional sense was born in England. If the entire Third World is allowed to emigrate here, tell me, what do you think the country would look like?
@@sarahann530 Immigration is greater than ever too, notably from the USA on the legal side. Those whom prefer authoritarianism and socialism are welcome to leave. That is only a good thing.
Interesting buddy, just goes to show that all these intelligent brexit voters know how to run successful transport businesses, NOT ! Gotta admit I have never been to Boston but it reminds me of some of the Scottish seaside resorts, lots of buses to take you but last direct return is at 6pm, what if you wanted to spend an extended afternoon....
Don't blame Brexit voters for the bus service, it's a lack of gov funds as Lincolnshire only gets around 3% per head of what Londoners get to cover transport, so we get poor health care and crappy roads, and no police service either.
@@LincsEnigma Yes, it was a typically ignorant, London-centric comment. City dwellers live in a cocooned fantasy world and would curl up and die if they had to live in a town like Boston.
I have lived in Boston for 18 years now I voted to leave brexit as I have seen over the years the crime rate has gone up and murders and unfortunately it seems to be majority of these are committed by Eastern Europeans

I’m from Wainfleet (I don’t live there now and was on the train map at the start btw) and you’re spot on about the lack of good public transport because it’s such a rural area. If you don’t have a car, it’s quite expensive to go to places, so people generally don’t tbh. Being a yellowbelly has its perks tho lol
Boston used to be pretty rough yrs ago when I first come here great place for raising a family and plenty of work now's it's everything opposite now
Actually locals DO want to do the agricultural work. They voted leave because they couldn't get those jobs which were on their doorstep. Employment agencies in the area employed directly from mainland EU. Not the local area, they did this to take advantage of gangmaster Contracts. Essentially legal slave wages. When I lived in the area. I looked for jobs local to me. Everyday for a decade. And never got one. I was commuting 50 miles each way to and from work, in the end. I left. I'd much rather live there and work there. But I can't physically get employed there because I can't use the employment agencies which supply workers for those jobs.
Don’t try logic with those who want white Britons without work or homes. The agenda is so obvious
What a load of nonsense, theres plenty jobs advertised locally with farmers and producers struggling for decent workforce, i work in agriculture industry amd apllied for several jobs and was offered a job, i never went for them as pay wasn't anywhere near what i earn where i work. Its just looks more like excuses, i can personally walk u in to pur office where u will be offered job in agriculture with potential to earn 800-1000 and over a week, as our company also struggling with staff and never used agancies or foreign workforce. Question is, how long u will last in job and do u actually want to work or just want job
@@laurisgaluza9668 Which office is this? And do you still get ganged up, bullied, abuse screamed at you in foreign languages, threats of physical violence, etc. if you're British? Because that's been my experience of working with Eastern Europeans.
@@laurisgaluza9668wonder why the pay was low?
I worked in agricultural gangs all my life until the Tony Blair cheap labour came in we couldn't work for nothing and couldn't live 30 to an household we were all married men earning a good living until the ruination of the foreign cheap labour we worked hard and earned good money i speak to some of the farmers now the ones that shit all over the British gangs They're living to regret it now they need twenty foreign workers to do the same work as four used to do they wanted cheap labour they got it but there's a difference between getting the work done and cheap labour that sit and do nothing that's what they got most went bust
Great people in Boston and Skegness 👍🇬🇧
Do you mean great as in personality, or in their massively obese body shapes?
Ive grown up in this area with work people dont want to do. Many people did it, until early 2000s when agencies started only employing europeans. Prior it was often lower skilled people who did this work, and was a great way to still earn a fairly decent living, while perhaps not having some of the skills that others have.
When I worked around there, everyone was either drunk or speeding their tits off. Grading and packing carrots, etc was a job to do, to pay your gangmaster back for the 'lay-ons' and a weekend's clubbing.
The foreigners are better workers than the average doley in Lincolnshire. It's as simple as that.
@@alfsmith4936 I remember back then when if you wanted to work on the land you would go into the Plough pub in North Hykeham and ask a man and you got on the bus the next morning. Most were on the dole. They was raided every so often. My mate`s dad was on the dole and racking it in.
@@damianbutterworth2434 We were all on the dole lol. Most the drivers were alcoholics too.
I lived on West Parade so it was the Burton or Portland Arms when we fancied a bit of work. 😂
A very fair assessment - wishing you happiness, success and all good things but mostly happiness - top man. Btw, Mountains Butchers for sausage rolls every time.
Is good for living boss ..?
lived in Boston through my childhood, can say nope. There's nothing to do other than drinking or drugs tbh and the local shops have been slowly shutting due to rent increase. Jobs are scarce too. I would not recommend it. That being said, having a large local hospital was quite nice
Well said.
I live 2 miles for Boston and I like your video
I found an video from the 80`s of Boston banger racing circuit. Just the first 4 minutes is Boston.

Hey just a local Bostonian here Did you make it to the train from spoons you walked the long way to the station man
Yeah haha I'd walked the long way lool
There's nothing wrong with having foreigners in this country you will always have foreigners, it goes back centuries.
The problem you have is the government that you voted in power which is the Tories they are the ones you have to blame where there is no proper infrastructure and Investment within Boston!! It's a beautiful city to come to and one should be proud of it!!

Now £1.65.
Capped at £5 per day.
Whoopee!
They were sold a pup.
Living in Boston for 23 years now, its for sure the most brexit town in the UK
Haha you said Spalding near the end. Most racist plays I’ve been to in my life
No way u live on one of my two neighbouring boroughs about 2 or 3 miles from where I live
Long live South London haha!
Interesting. 😊
Stupidest town in england?? Well. They are out.
Hey love this I am from Boston I voted remain 😉 just saying lol. I really your video it is really nicely done and I agree 100% with everything you are saying. I have just subscribed 😁
Thank you :)
Over sixties pay full fares until 67 the pension age
this fella has no idea! never crosses his mind that wages have been driven down by mass migration BOSTON in particular,! also rental price increases, less accomodation for locals, and because of the sheer numbers this once lovely market town is indistinguishable to many others in the UK! MIGRATION GOOD! MASS MIGRATION ABSOLUTELY NO GOOD!!!!
Voted romain in the EU and got Romania 🇷🇴 lol 😂
EU migration has destroyed the UK working class and their salaries. That is supported by every piece of research into the matter. If you were them, you'd have voted to end what has destroyed your jobs, your salaries, your family structures and your town. Further, liberty itself in the constitutional sense was born in England. If the entire Third World is allowed to emigrate here, tell me, what do you think the country would look like?
Brexit has failed emigration is greater than ever and you make your own rules . 😂
@@sarahann530 Immigration is greater than ever too, notably from the USA on the legal side. Those whom prefer authoritarianism and socialism are welcome to leave. That is only a good thing.
Interesting buddy, just goes to show that all these intelligent brexit voters know how to run successful transport businesses, NOT !
Gotta admit I have never been to Boston but it reminds me of some of the Scottish seaside resorts, lots of buses to take you but last direct return is at 6pm, what if you wanted to spend an extended afternoon....
Yeah, honestly, if you wanna do a day trip and not get stranded, you'd need to be out early doors, which is a nuisance of you aren't driving!
Don't blame Brexit voters for the bus service, it's a lack of gov funds as Lincolnshire only gets around 3% per head of what Londoners get to cover transport, so we get poor health care and crappy roads, and no police service either.
@@LincsEnigma Yes, it was a typically ignorant, London-centric comment. City dwellers live in a cocooned fantasy world and would curl up and die if they had to live in a town like Boston.
live in boston
I have lived in Boston for 18 years now I voted to leave brexit as I have seen over the years the crime rate has gone up and murders and unfortunately it seems to be majority of these are committed by Eastern Europeans
Has the crime rate gone down ?
@@sarahann530 no, It`s still bad. I heard of a rape in Skegness by one of the illegal migrants in the hotels.
@@sarahann530why would it? They've not been kicked out....
@@savmot So Brexit didn't work as planned then !
@@sarahann530 Dunno mate, I didn't plan Brexit.
Great bostonski
Wind rush for you brother
So much for the Empire 😂😂😂😂😂😂 over its over
very brexit cuz of all yip yip yip bud bud bud
Soo both Boston in the UK and in the US (probably originated from the IK one) are the most racists city in both countries?
