I agree there is something going on between the original members of the EEC and I think anyone who is not suspicious is very naive. Just before the Referendum the EU gave Turkey a LOAN to open a Ford Transit Factory in Turkey which is NOT even in the EU. The Ford Transit factory in Southampton closed down with the loss of 600 jobs...that was just BEFORE the Referendum and if WE contribute financially to the downfall of our own manufacturing there will never be an equal place for the UK in the EU club. I believe the UK has been systematically asset stripped by the EU since 1973. The first indication I had of this was when 2 successful dairy farmers in Wiltshire who are family members went out of business in the 1970s... I believe the actions of Blair and Brown and their government - many members of which as we allo know, were Tony's Cronies, and they were complicit in the undermining of the UK by the EU.

If two professionals are sharing a flat (out of necessity, given the high cost of rent etc) and both work in different places then 2 cars are probably essential.

Of course they will go ahead- it's the nature of the Labour beast. I remember when Lewisham became totally controlled by Labour- the first thing they did was put parking meters near the shops around Forest Hill. The double yellow lines are no use because every time I go out there is a van or something parked on some of them. At least it should get rid of all the taxis on Crystal Palace Road...

  7. Had some spare ribs from there about a year ago- they tasted like they'd been dipped in bleach....I now cook my own using the ?6 meal deal from M and S
  8. One person is not allowed to sell 2 cars or more on the street...so if a group of people get together and sell one car each.....
  9. Yes please report this. My daughter was approached some years ago. We immediately called the police and we expressed embarrassment at what we thought was trivial but the policeman said that pervs' behaviour escalates to worse....

  11. I agree- it reminded me of the first job I had when everyone met once a fortnight to discuss 'ways forward' etc. It became clear after the first 2 or three meetings that whatever was proposed on the agenda is what was going to happen as the HOD and the Deputy had agreed and decided beforehand and the meetings were a nod to democracy and a complete waste of time. The rest of the staff then clammed up for the whole meeting and we all went home 30 minutes or more earlier.....
  12. Bacon is a complete waste of time and very unhealthy- just because it smells and tastes lovely does NOT mean you should eat it....

That kind of sums up the attitude of some dog owners. When my kids were babies and the shoes or pushchair wheels got covered in poo I would dearly have loved to follow a depositor home and shove the contents of my baby's nappies through his/her letter box
  16. I expect we will all be squeezed until the pips squeek....https://www.london-se1.co.uk/news/view/9791
  17. I'd gladly swap ALL the cats crap in my front and back garden for the stuff on the pavement- at least the stuff on the pavement is easy to get rid of and is not killing the plants

  19. The OP says " I asked them before and they said that there does not seem to be a problem as they only received 7 complaints of breaching of the clean air act last year!" I was under the impression that there are monitoring stations around London since the 'powers that be' are forever going on about us breaching EU rules...and then WE have to pay the EU a fine for doing it. So if London is annually breaching the EU levels....how come Southwark is passing the buck on to the residents to do what should be THEIR job!

Quite right...what finished me being neighbourly was when a neighbour came and asked if I had his parcel and I didn't....
  21. Here's a message from its founder Edir mercado https://blogs.universal.org/bispomacedo/en/2011/05/19/our-children-will-not-turn-out-to-be-gay/ should be banned imho

  23. 'some debate' on here-, about THAT sort of thing....the fact that the DHFC (David Horowitz Freedom Centre) has a website called 'Jihad Watch' means that it has been branded 'islamophobic'...like anything else, (or anyone else) that points out the honest truth about what is, and what has been, going on...which, of course, is all that T. Robinson has EVER done- and I daresay the DHFC..... c'mon rendelharris join the 'debate'

    GP At Hand

    I expect Blair didn't bargain for the fact that loads of GPs would go part-time when he upped their pay a colossal amount!
