LONDON LIFESTYLE




Always stylish, lifestyle events in London include fashion, music, food, drink and healthy markets. Lifestyle events in London are a quirky mix.
According to 18th-century man of letters Samuel Johnson, “When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life.” – And who are we to argue? London has hundreds of museums, galleries and historical sites; food for every palate and shopping for every pocket, and, when the lights go down, an array of clubs, bars and theatres to entertain you. And the best part? It’s on your doorstep!

Many millions of tourists from across the world visit London each year, and since the capital are less than 30 minutes from Greenwich and Avery Hill and under an hour from Medway, you could easily be among them.


Perhaps the best way to get your bearings when you arrive is a trip on the London Eye (Tube: Westminster). The capital’s fourth tallest structure, this high-tech ferries wheel offers a bird’s eye view over London in a fully enclosed capsule.
The Tower of London (Tube: Tower Hill) is one of the world’s most famous fortresses. Explore its history as a royal palace and place of execution, but get there early to beat the crowds, particularly if you want an unhurried view of the Crown Jewels.
Buckingham Palace (Tube: St James’s Park) is the official London residence of Queen Elizabeth II. The palace is only open for a few months during the summer, but the Changing of the Guard ceremony can be seen in the palace forecourt on most days from April to November.
Madame Tussauds (Tube: Baker Street) is a popular tourist attraction where you can pose with lifelike waxworks of famous people throughout history. You will spot a different type of star next door at the London Planetarium (Tube: Baker Street). Learn about the universe with interactive games and a dramatic audio-visual show where you sit back and view the creation of our galaxy

Every year, London hosts concerts, festivals and parades celebrating the capital and the cultural diversity of its visitors and inhabitants.
If you like live pop music then July’s Party in the Park (Tube: Hyde Park Corner) is for you. Hosted by the radio station Capital FM, it is Europe’s biggest one-day pop event.
The Gay Pride March in July brings together thousands of gay and lesbian people to celebrate their sexuality.
Notting Hill Carnival (Tube: Nothing Hill) takes over the streets of West London in August, with live steel bands, huge decorated floats and bright costumes.


With so much to do during the day, you will have to try hard to keep back some energy for the city’s nightlife. This may be a leisurely drink, an energizing night of clubbing or a good laugh at a comedy club. London’s pubs come in many forms, from traditional to trendy and modern. Many offer good English cooking at reasonable prices.
Swish bars are also springing up, appealing to city workers and those who want a more sophisticated drinking experience. The Ha! Ha! Chain has a number of bars across London offering a swanky setting. There are also wine bars aplenty, including The Cork and Bottle off Leicester Square. Other drinking establishments in the area include Yates’s and the 200 bar and club (Tube: Leicester Square).
The city’s clubbing scene caters for all tastes in music – but beware, admission can be pricey. Sound, in the heart of Leicester Square, hosts specialist music nights from the likes of Trevor Nelson, offering a blend of R&B and hip hop, or classic ‘70s disco.
Ministry of Sound (Tube: Elephant and Castle) is an established nightclub with a mixture of garage and house music. Fabric (Tube: Barbican) is a classy club that usually provides a packed-out night with live acts and underground DJs. If you prefer soulful sounds and a laid-back atmosphere try the Jazz Café (Tube: Camden Town), a mixture of jazz, soul and R&B. Ronnie Scott’s Club (Tube: Leicester Square) is more expensive, but attracts major jazz talents.
London is one of the gay capitals of the world, with an array of bars and clubs (as well as shops and social groups) located in Soho (Tube: Leicester Square).

FOREIGN RELATIONS

The United Kingdom (UK) is a major player in international politics, with interests throughout the world. The former British Empire, notably through its successor, the Commonwealth of Nations, links the UK with many of the world's nations in one way or another. The UK has also exported its parliamentary style government, legal and financial systems, and language throughout the world. The UK is a major Member State in the European Union (EU) and holds a permanent seat on the UN Security Council.

The United Kingdom and the United States are close military allies. The two countries share cultural similarities, as well as military research and intelligence facilities. The UK has purchased military technology from the USA such as Tomahawk cruise missiles and Trident nuclear missiles, and the US has purchased equipment from Britain (e.g. Harrier). The USA also maintains a large number of military personnel in the UK. In recent years, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and the President of the United States have often been close friends, for example Tony Blair and Bill Clinton and later with George W. Bush and in the 1980s the often like-minded Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan. Present British policy is that the relationship with the United States represents Britain's "most important bilateral relationship.

The UK has had good relations with the rest of Europe since the Second World War. It has been a member of the European Union since 1973. Although the UK is not a Euro member, it still plays a leading role in the day to day workings of the EU. The UK has clashed with other Member States of the European Union, particularly with France and Germany, most recently over the US-led war with Iraq.

WORK AND RELATIONSHIP
