Whilst also being associated with housing the new migrant groups, Notting Hill was also viewed as a place of easy access to sex, drugs and certain foods - associations with immorality. However, were these stories from the 'white side'?

Nottinghill was also part of large murder scandals in the 50s

Kenneth Newman (commissioner for the metropolitan police in the 1980s) spoke of unemployed youths, often black youths, congregating in areas of Notting Hill where they would buy and sell drugs, stolen goods, drink illegally and play games.

Limitations of our enquiries = Notting Hill is one of many sites of radicalised politics, yet most research is focused on this area, as well as London as a whole. It would be beneficial to focus/investigate other debates in other areas throughout the country.

Even if legislations and politics changed improving conditions in Notting Hill, negative social ideas of this area would prevail.
