Why is London nightlife so terrible?

In the north, places like Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield, Newcastle and Liverpool you can party hard into the early hours of the next day.

But in London you can only buy their ridiculously overpriced drink until midnight. And on a weekday only until 10:30pm

London might be alright for attracting tourists but it’s become an incredibly boring place after dark. Frankly my favourite thing about it is the train heading home.

I remember that pubs used to have to shut by 10.30 on a Sunday and probably midnight on Saturdays but that’s pretty normal. I remember being in plenty of clubs tilll the early hours of the morning. Has all that changed?
