I thought one place in ED tried that already...

Ban buggies? Really?

Fox, it's not a crime to be a victim, I don't think anyone has said that.

I went there a while back and the atmosphere was a bit odd, but I don't recall anything racist or homophobic being said. The haircut also wasn't that great and I haven't returned. I don't think what you described is a police matter though, what law is it you think may have been broken?

But the only times you do that are to differentiate between the experts who spoke in favour of remain and what you would expect from a proper expert - you know, the type that agrees with you... "They were not independent experts like you might normally expect to rely upon" "He could have made some proper expert points in a valid and measured way (as you would normally expect an expert commentator to do)"

Robbin, you can prefix the word expert with so-called or place into speech marks as many times as you like, but I think it's unnecessary if you're talking about the likes of the Governor of the Bank of England or the MD of the IMF. They are actual experts aren't they?

Another vote for Mozambique from me Although a friend of mine who is big Dylan fan insists it's the worst song on Desire. I don't agree but have picked up on Hurricane as my 'current fave' as a result of listening to the whole album recently. My 8 yr old son really likes it too, so I had to stop playing it round the house due to the inappropriate language...

Now it's closed again and we live in Camberwell (below the bridge), it's horrendous again. EdCam - are you a troll?

The Real Greek is quite nice. There is one near where I work in Spitalfields and there is also one at each of the Westfield Shopping Centres. I think East Dulwich might be a bold move for them though!!

It's not got much to do with tax avoidance. But I think what Jimmy Carr did was wrong and I think the law has since been changed to make it illegal. But I'm all for a bit of legal tax avoidance - I call it my pension!

Quids, why does wanting to change a system (or prevent movement in a direction you disagree with) mean you wouldn't want to get the very best for your own children from the current system in play? That's ridiculous, surely?

Maybe toughen up a bit. It wasn't aimed at you or disparaging your capability to feel empathy with the situation.

Tunnel is definitely quicker, but in my experience kids find the ferry quite exciting. If you have a long(ish) onward journey the ferry breaks it up a bit more too. In the tunnel, you can get out of your car but just to stand by the side of it really.

East Dulwich is on the Tube now - that's exciting news!

Not going, but have always enjoyed it when I have been. I know there has been trouble up there, but I've never seen any. Is Maastricht really bigger than Notting Hill? I thought NH billed itself as the largest carnival in Europe...

No need to apologise and thank you for continuing to flag this matter. I just phoned First Port and they had already been notified - they have a contractor out tomorrow to collect the rubbish. I tried to speak about preventative measures but as a non-resident (of Altima) the person I spoke to couldn't go into detail. She did say though that these collections get billed back to to the leaseholders at the block - also that preventative measures such as CCTV could only be implemented with the approval of the owners of the block.

Wasn't there always a a conneection between Si Mangia and Lorenzos? I'm sure when SM first opened they marketed themselves as being a 'sister' restaurant of Lorenzos...?

Surely one Ocado driver who leaves the depot and delivers to ten customers is going to cause less pollution than ten customers making individual return journeys to their local Waitrose branch. They might not all go by car I suppose...

Ignore that - Dulwich Park is a great place to learn or practise cycling. It's a shared space and most people are courteous and considerate. Some less so, but that's life in general, isn't it. Peckham Rye is also suitable. It doesn't have the wide circuit path that DP has, but is probably a bit quieter - maybe because of that.

That's never been on TV - you're kidding!! Loved the title music - Redhead Kingpin!

The reason the PLP wants rid of him is pretty straight-forward. Their view is he appeals to activists and those on the left of the party, but not to middle-ground floating voter whose support is essential to Labour ever winning another election.

Yup!! I'd like to see Corbyn gone, but if that end is achieved by keeping him off the ballot, the trouble will be far from over.

Rendel - you are quite right about that. The vote is valid. I don't support the strike though and am just pointing out that as a great majority of teachers have not voted for it*, I don't feel not supporting the strike equates to not valuing the work teachers do. NUT membership = 308,569 *24.5% who voted = 75,599 * 91.7% in favour = 69,324 Combined NUT & NASUWT membership = 591,459 So that's less than 12% of union members that have voted for this
