  1. I half get what hb is implying Whilst we can't turn our backs on Ukraine and ensuring they have the capability to defend themselves, is it morally right that multinationals make money out of war ? During the 2 World wars, governments mobilised workforces and took over factories build weapons but now there does seem to be an industry making profits. Thete has to be a better way to allow countries to defend themselves without paying multinationals!
  2. Council tax will obviously go down as they are making su much from brown bins, ltns, bus gate and other fines that by now their coffers must be overflowing 🤣
  3. Southwark seem to have created a whole department churning out consultations, and whilst it's important to get residents views they have gone from Area consultations to Borough consultations. With the diversity of different areas in Southwark is there a danger that one size doesn't fit all ? Especially around transport needs and on street parking / shared use?
  4. So , it's not about the money then 🤔 😅
  5. Was / is the leak ins8de the property or nearby the property? If inside and it's the landlords responsibility then they will have to assist you with temporary accommodation. If its outside and nothing to do with the landlord then you may have to seek redress from the gas board 🙄
  6. We have so many amazing local shops that surpass Sainsburys that everyone has a simple choice: Shop local and maybe get all your shopping in multiple stores. Or Continue to whinge about supermarkets whilst shopping in them because it's slightly more convenient. Years ago supermarkets were cheaper but now they have the majority of the market that is no longer the case. You pays your money, you takes your choice!
  7. Just seen that the no 12 service has been changed to every 13 minutes https://tfl.gov.uk/modes/buses/bus-changes#on-this-page-1 So rather than adding more buses make it a reliable service, TFL have made it more sparse and therefore more crowded and reduced the impetus to use public transport 🤔
  8. When are we due the results of all 3 consultations?
  9. Obviously nearly 90% of the responders will be excluded for living 10 feet from the Road leaving only a handful of yes responses 😉
  10. A builder isn't the same as a plumber 🤔
  11. The sound of overwhelming yeses speaks volumes here 😅
  12. The badge is registered to the holder not the car, so unless you have told southwark which car you apply it for (hence registering) they won't have that information on the database
  13. In Southwark you can register your blue badge with the council then park in disabled bays without having to displaying it as the registration acts as virtual badge. Helps prevent theft off you park in a bay overnight.

    Clowns

    Resurrecting the clowns thread BBC News - Grimaldi service: Clowns gather in Hackney for annual commemoration https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-68199834 now that has got to be a nightmare for some 🤔
  15. Various online retailers (and motability shops) sell blue badge holders that have a security cable you pass through the steering wheel.
  16. Mayfly It sounds like you have a very specific requirement for where your router and phones go in the house. The problem is that you were lead to believe that the old phone set up in the house using copper cables would be usable which unfortunately isn't feasible. I get the issue you face and maybe the simplest solution is to get the box set up near the entry point for the optical cable and then look at how you can extend it internally afterwards. Obviously not the simple install process you hoped for and with the move away from copper cable to fibre we aren't being offered the ability to retain copper cable. Sorry can't offer a solution to the floors being lifted as that is specific to your layout but as others have said consider the option of cables attached to the skirting board or where appropriate change the skirting board where the cables are to run for one designed to hide cables under so that nothing is visible. Hope that helps.
  17. Moovart Yes it is a scam, they now know all your details, immediately change all your passwords and your front door so that they won't know where you live. I would also advise watching from behind the curtains for the next 5 years incase they steal your birthday cards. Stop using amazon as they are just killing small shops (nothing to do with the scam) and dye your hair blue so they won't recognise you if you do go out. 🤣
  18. Consultation closed Not a vote mind you Let's see how its results are represented and what happens next My moneys on regardless of how many say no (compared to yes) that the council will still say " but its what you want"
  19. I think that the point of the article, is not to show LTN specific data but that any data can, and may have been manipulated, even scientific papers, and that we should all do our own due diligence on any paper we read rather than accepting it as gospel.
  20. You're all heart mal

  22. Interesting to see, that despite Southwark claiming they have had to cut services year on year due to austerity impacting their budget, the number of full time employees has risen each year which adds to their wage bill. Any business that faces reduced income cuts their cloth (and staff numbers) appropriately. Source : https://www.southwark.gov.uk/council-and-democracy/equality-and-diversity/employment-and-equalities you have to download each PDF and look through them for employee numbers.
  23. Naughty southwark The nunhead consultation, whilst allowing you to say I don't want a CPZ then forces you to answer question 5 You can see them saying most people agreed a parking restriction between x and y 🤔 Also the same on the Queens Road one but strangely not the case on the Dulwich Village one.
  24. Tex mex ? Tex Avery? 🤣 Which phone do you have as that makes it easier to advise. However simplest solution is email the text to a computer and print it that way Otherwise it may be an app
  25. Where has this rethoric "entitled drivers/motorists" come from? Is this the latest slogan to batter car owners with? It feels like it has come out of Animal Farm and you are playing the part of Old Major or Napoleon in revolting against societal norms and you want to bring us all down to a common level where owning a car is only for the elite of the farm. In the book Napoleon advocated that the happiest animals live simple lives, but then goes on to lead the new elite class. Next you will be using the slogan "two wheels good, four wheels bad" 🤔
