LONDON -- People who've reluctantly left London have been sharing their reasons for making the move via giant digital billboards. This is the opposite of leaving quietly and it's probably just what the city needs to see.
The London is Changing project has been calling on people to submit their reasons for moving away from London. It's also sought reasons for why people are moving to the city, but so far those submitting stories are mostly leaving. A selection of the anonymous stories are then posted on large digital billboards in Holborn and Aldgate.
The goal of the project, which will run throughout 2015, is to "facilitate discussion about the impact of economic and policy changes on the culture and diversity of London". Earlier this year, the Greater London Authority announced that the city's population had topped 8.6 million for the first time since 1939 and it's predicted to reach 11 million by 2050.
