Have a friend from Andorra who lives on my Estate play football sevens with. But he grew up in Australia, so has an Aussie accent.

No, sorry, you're wrong. There's over 16 million people living in Greater and Central London and it's officially the largest city in Europe.No it isn't. Paris has about as many people, for instance.
But if we look at the wiki charts for population figures of people living in the city centres, then Central London's population is over 7 million people. The next 2nd largest central city population after London in Europe (according to the wiki charts) is Berlin, with around 3 million living in the city centre. Paris has around 2 million living in the city centre.
It's easy to do the maths here when you look at the population charts on wiki for European city centres. 3 million in Central Berlin and over 7 million in central London makes London twice as populated in the city centre than the next most populated city centre in Europe.
And you should see the London tubes and traffic during rush hour. We keep our medieval street plan and the tubes and buses arrive every few minutes in zones 1 & 2 across central London and it's like sardines squashed in a tin every day. High congestion charges on the roads and high parking fees to find a parking space in central London. There's news report videos on YT also showing crowds of people on Oxford Street and in the tubes and pedestrians crowding the bridges during rush hours in London. I live here and I've seen the roads and tubes and crowds.
It's overcrowded.
I don't know why someone said 'grimey' Ldn.
London is the garden capital of the world, as well as being the official theatre capital of the world, a major world financial centre, etc, but it's full of green spaces, large parks bigger than Central Park in NYC (like Richmond Deer Park in London and Kew Gardens, etc), a lot of energy-efficient new eco-skyscrapers and recycling and green measures have been taken across the city, plus a massive flood defence barrier.
