  1. Surely painting '20' on the roads will stop this though

  4. Crazy. Surprised it didn't make the news
  5. Any problems on the ELL today? Tfl says it's ok, but their journey planner only produces bus options for travelling between Peckham Rye and Canonbury?!
  6. I am ambiwinkerous
  7. Sounds annoying. I would have a word with your neighbours.
  8. For those that like their wizz planks there is a skateboard emporium opening in the arcade next to Bussey... 'Southern breeze'
  9. Totally agree with Jeremy. All for getting people out of their cars, but you have to have decent alternatives available. Get the tube, Boris bikes an some decent segregated bike lanes and then, by all means, start making it more difficult for people to use their cars.
  10. Good stuff. Can't beat a good burger imo
  11. Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after you ;-)
  12. I'm on holiday.

  15. I prefer odonnos personally
  16. That ones pretty much been done
  17. The actress has a child agrea and an adult only area I thought? Maybe you were sat round the wrong side

Fair enough, you did a good job! Like I say, it's pretty careless language on Corbyn's part. > The most worrying thing about Corbyn I've read is > his intention to print money to finance the state. > That is, frankly, just terrifying.

That said, there is an argument that QE could have been directed in different ways to stimulate the 'real economy' more effectively following the crash.
  19. I completely understand your frustration first mate and I wasn't being critical, just stating my perspective on it.
  20. I don't believe in conspiracies. I would be very surprised if this is a deliberate step towards introducing a CPZ (that's not to say that it may not lead in that direction eventually). Councillors of course want to improve the quality of life for their constituents and it's easy to jump to the support of what on the face of it, seems like a positive campaign to calm traffic and increase road safety. The problem is that it's not part of any joined up strategy. It's a campaign started by a small group, with a vested interest in the outcome. Whilst those on MG are going to be focused on what they want for their road, they are unlikely to be thinking about the knock on consequences. This is were I would hope we could rely on the council / Councillors to be looking at the bigger picture. I don't drive down MG (in fact I rarely drive at all in London), but I am worried about how this 'problem' has been identified, the precedent it sets for other streets who may well want the same and the apparent lack of strategic oversight.

And some of those who haven't voted before, or have stopped voting (of which there are a lot). Labour are currently attracting huge numbers of new members, lot's of them young voters.
  22. Yes, well said David_carnell.
  23. That Kinsdale Rd mural looks great.
  24. Agree Bikylilyput. It's really sad that Kid's Company has closed. There are a lot of kids who saw it as a lifeline.
  25. 'The kids' are maybe doing something different than their parents did. Perhaps going to different places too.
