  1. Property is theft. It should belong to them.
  2. Good they are making use of an empty building. The real criminals are the landlords.
  3. Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations?
  4. Someone went through a red light at the East Dulwich Road / Crystal Palace Road junction this morning. If I'd crossed without looking I'd have been hit. I reported it to the police. Cars are an absolute disgrace and should be banned.
  5. Gail's relies on fat and sugar - middle class McDonald's. Owned by Bain Capital - a 175bln USD investment fund. Depressing.
  6. This is clear profiteering by the council - I'd like to see all cars banned (minus a large exception list), this is just tinkering.
  7. Chain stores, are absolutely the problem: - pay poverty wages/ wages subsidised by the tax payer 'in work benefits' - push up rents, preventing local people from owning their own business/ having job security - syphon off profits (or at least more likely to, not always) to tax havens - more likely to be owned by awful, already wealthy shareholders (e.g. Sainsburys is 15% owned by the Qatari government) Yes they provide cheaper options, but they help create the poverty which requires such cheaper options. If they didn't exist, perhaps their employees could own their own shops/ businesses.
  8. Just read the Daily Mail article - I wish I had voted for you now. Keep it up.
  9. Keen to get others' views: the redesign appears to be prioritising revenue generation via camera controls. Eg. with the Melbourne North road blockers moved south, I assume most unfamiliar drivers looking to turn left from EDG would use Derwent instead. I'm hugely against cars, however fooling people into penalty charges is unethical.
  10. I have had what I interpret as confirmation from Southern that trains may never be increased. I urge you all to email Helen Hayes and Sidiq Khan about this (please suggest anyone else that can actually do something about this?). [email protected] [email protected] Context is as follows- I sent a complaint about the current service to Southern Rail in which I asked, 'please tell me when we will have 6 trains per hour from ED to London Bridge', to which they replied (copy/paste): 'We?re currently unable to tell you precisely when, and which, services may increase'
  11. I live near ED Grove. We just had a baby. Can't get a nursery place nearby at all. We don't own a car. We work from home 50% of the time but absolutely cannot work and look after a child at the same time. Please don't try to block this - we desperately need the extra nursery capacity.
  12. Personally I find other peoples' music unbearable. I'm of the view that it should always be quiet enough so that it can't be heard by neighbours.
  13. This genuinely sounds like an excellent (if perhaps impractical) idea.
  14. Hi James, I would love to see the closure of Lordship Lane to traffic. Closing the road has done wonders for Rye Lane. Jim
