If I had lived in Brick Lane for 10+ years and didn't have a pot to piss in or tuppence to rub together I would be v. hostile to the Tarquins and Nathan Barleys that have invaded the area in the last 5 years. I'm not at all condonining such shit behaviour (or casting aspersions about anyone who lives east) - it's fucking unbelievable. However, it's interesting to see what the locals' real attitudes are to the newcomers - away from the high visibility areas, and when they're not spending their money...
