I haven't, but just out off curiosity, I'm wondering if whomever can answer your questions can also let us know if there are any areas to stay away from.

Is it that bad? When I was a kid, my dad worked/lived in London for a few months and said he had nothing but good experiences there and throughout where he went in Europe. Grant it, that this is just one person in one point in time, but he did say that he felt better treatment there than here in the US.

If visiting, London, York, Chester, Oxford, Cambridge, Lincoln, Edinburgh, also generically the countryside, eg Peak District or Lake District or the Dales.

If relocating avoid London like the plague. Leeds is not a bad place to live.
