Not grammatical; "poi la brityn mo?". The correct translation depends on at 
least two things:
1. Is this place something that the speaker is pointing to, or is he referring 
to something he previously said? (ti/di'u)
2. Is "that is in Britain" distinguishing London, England, from another city 
named London, or just saying where London is?

la'e di'u zvati la .london. noi selstu la .ritygug.
.i ti zvati la .london. poi selstu la .ritygug.

mu'omi'e .pier.
