Matt, I see you've taken your "Location:" Off..............

Changing the place's name isn't going to change all of the stuff mentioned here, is it.
Instead of "24,000 people in Doncaster are on benefits" it'll just be "24,000 people in Danum are on benefits". Danum is a stupid name anyway.
If they really want to change the name then they should fix it up (easier said than done, I'll admit) and then rename it.

Are you sure donny's population is 75k? Barnsley's population is 250 odd k and i always thought donny was bigger? Hull is defo worse. I'd put blackpool in list of shit holes.
