How is it hilarious? I doubt the average English person is a massive fan of Canary Wharf and it’s owners.
It's hilarious because it plays a part in the UK economy and generates tax pounds. So in way or another they are not so disconnected form the people they are booing.
I really don't understand your point or your sense of humor
Yeah no we are rich property owners/developers and what they’re doing to our city. Take your money and fuck off kindly, we’ll keep our pubs.
Canary Wharf is built by the rich to serve the rich, the average Londoner at best thinks of it as kind of a dystopian novelty with big stuff.
