Londoners
Big Ben's neighbors
Londoners are people who live in London, the capital city of England and the United Kingdom.
The term implies current residence rather than birth: someone born in London who moves away stops being a Londoner, while newcomers eventually become one.
Londoners are used to the Tube delays.
