I fail to see how you can criticise another poster for commenting on two threads related to recent stabbings as being mawkish, but defend people filming such events (surely more mawkish). I haven't 'heated up' anything, I just expressed a degree of shock that people who had stood around watching and taking pictures hadn't gone to the police. I accept your point about the potential effects of witnessing such an event and hope people might come forward in due course.. that's a fair comment. But the fact that footage has now found itself onto YouTube is disgusting.

Filming a murder and then uploading it to YouTube. Yes, I despair at that. You think it's fine? Someone's death as entertainment?

A video has found its way on to YouTube. I despair.

It is probably the one local road where I do genuinely feel that 30 mph wouldn't be unreasonable.

I assumed it would be served by trains coming from the Herne Hill spur of the Thameslink line. If so, this would mean additional services. Camberwell is a major centre and really does need a central train station imo. Really, there was a very good argument for bringing the tube there, but as the strategy on underground extensions seems to be primarily focussed on subsidising new private housing developments, that's never going to happen. This is the best next option.

The whole thing is ridiculous. May knows Brexit is a disaster, but she feels obliged to play along because, you know.. will of the people and all that. It's a sham.

Blair's government did some great things. His legacy will of course, forever be overshadowed by Iraq. That said, anyone who thinks the then Conservative alternative wouldn't have also blindly followed Dubya into that quagmire wasn't paying attention at the time.

ED and Willow aren't on Lordship Lane. How about: You know you grew up in East Dulwich when you can no longer afford to live here?

So May is now accusing 'Brussels' of interfering in the election. Incendiary, counterproductive and far from being in the national interest. But then the Tories seem happy to destroy relations with Europe in exchange of narrow party interests.

Because she knows that our hand is empty and that people aren't going to like the deal we get

Some rather 'long term' looking concrete blocks have joined the flower beds outside Denmark Hill station. Are these bridges going to be opened any time soon? How is it that they can just be allowed to fall in to disrepair and disuse without any accountability?

I love the Mandelson story. Serioulsy though, anyone photographed eating can be made to look stupid. It was ridiculous when they attacked Ed Milliband for it and it's just as daft now it's May.

Why are there two threads on the election. Perhaps Admin could lock one of them.

Strong and stable government? Or a divided and incompetent Conservative administration which has placed the country in constitutional chaos.. https://infacts.org/may-cheek-claim-strong-stable-leadership/

Fair enough seabag, perhaps my comments a bit unfair. It's just the idea of people standing filming something like this and then not giving that evidence over to the police? I guess it's easy to ignore the stress and shock. I hope they come forward.

I think we'll look back and see the successful European countries who followed a more balanced, progressive, social democratic model and rue the day we elected these Randian fundamentalists.

People watching and filming, but haven't talked to police. Ffs

Don't Answer Questions Dont do Debates Dont do Policy Vilify Jeremy Corbyn Repeat strong and stable over and over and over again For this, Lynton Crosby gets paid hundreds of thousands of pounds. 🙄

I remember Cameron promising stability too. That worked out marvellously.

I'm voting for my dining room chair. It is both suitably strong and stable, which focus groups have reliably informed me are the key attributes voters are looking for.

He's pretty clear who'll pay for it- all of us, but especially the better off, through higher taxation. That is the price of living in a civilised society imo. Labour also propose to borrow against future investments. The conservatives on the other hand would continue cutting or contracting out as many public services as possible and giving tax breaks to the richest. They have also ensured that we will leave Europe and may well yet preside over the break up of the UK. May has been clear that she will lead us out of the EU without a trade deal, if she decides it is 'necessary'. We have lost more than a decade of growth following the banking crisis because the conservatives, rather than putting an economic stimulus in place, decided to use it as cover to push their ideological pursuits (shrinking the state). One has to decide which approach they think is more likely to grow the economy and also improve the quality of life of the greatest number of people.

Strong, stable, strong, stable, strong, stable, strong, stable, strong, stable, strong, stable, strong, stable, strong, stable, strong, stable, strong, stable, strong, stable, strong, stable. [REPEAT TO FADE]
