YOU cannot turn on the TV without viewing life and death on an estate. Either the real news or some cop drama will show violence played out against the background of an estate. That’s why I decided to visit one of them to see if estate life was really as bad as painted.
That TV image wasn’t wrong. As I arrived the first thing I saw was a dark Land Rover Freelander on its side. Locals told me the car belonged to the Big Fella who seemed to be head honcho of the estate.
Just two days later things got really bloody. Innocent Patrick Panks drove onto the estate only to be told to “Fuck off you peasant” by a gang of men with guns and dogs who had blocked the road. One of the men — a gamekeeper — broke a stick over Patrick’s head leaving him bleeding.
