we need more information - the actual facts on intended use and benefits - now and in the future, otherwise we're just speculating

The consensus is that they are not wanted. The failed when last raised by Labour. The news will spin whatever it's agenda is, so be mindful of what you listen to. They are quoted as not being required for healthcare or welfare, so what exactly is worth the huge investment - what is the value that cost will deliver?

Just go to the park like everyone else who didn’t buy a ticket.

Surely you must be able to see them from outside the sectioned off part of the park

What about Dulwich park?

That’s right. Some places are very grim and will definitely benefit. People need nice community spaces and safe places to shop and wander about

I'll take that as a No then. It's not as "imaginary" as you think, to understand the impact online shopping has on communities and local environments. That's well known.

If that better choice, better price and better availability were available locally instead of being delivered - what choice would you make? Not everyone makes ethical choices yet consumers have all the power. If you realised that your changing your consumer decisions could directly impact the environment around you, would you make different choices?

when high streets are filled with betting shops, pound shops, empty sites and just run down - as is the case in many places - of course people don't want to go there - either for essentials or to hang out or shop-shop. a multi-fronted approach is exactly what is needed - upgrade the areas, encourage footfall, encourage new shops etc - BUT that has to be supported by consumers - who need to stop being lazy with amazon and home deliveries and make better choices.

Thank you for sharing that. I hope this reaches the owners. Hitting a dog has far reaching impacts - mood, trust, aggression etc Goodness knows how often she does that

I take precautions, as every woman does. I also have a large dog. It isn’t safe though, my teenagers have each been followed and harassed while walking home through East Dulwich.

Just be brave and do what you want to do

The processing of claims and appeals is being changed - it takes too long, which isn't good for anyone.

It may be unpalatable, but not all asylum seekers are genuine and a number have their claims rejected. There are issues with the accommodation of those seeking to have their rejected status appealed. I doubt that news is not known. Picking and choosing facts to suit your own beliefs is in itself dangerous.

Just - WOW - are you serious? Equally, how about "anyone who disagrees with my definition of tolerance is not welcome in the community"?

he's not on the general radar - not with the Labour tax scandal and the new Tories wanting to buddy up with Starmer (on their terms). if anything, he's a irrelevant distraction from some real alarms

I challenge point 2. There is nothing amusing about this man at all. oh, I get the irony now. Very clever.

Maybe call ahead and get one of the staff to meet you at the car and take them in for you

Your mental health is affected by your environment, and how you do things affects your life. If you can focus on small things, it will have a big impact. I think you're being facetious, but people do live like that. I also operate an organised chaos strategy, as I'm sure many people do, which is essential with family and busy lives

I disagree with the who concept of tidying one room at a time. I find it's more effective to increase the overall level of tidy by 10% regularly, and take regular breaks. Always straighten your bed first - your bed is your priority and your haven. Change the sheets if you have clean ones to use. 1. pick up all rubbish around the house; take it out. 2. pick up all crockery etc that needs a wash: put it all in one place and start to sort it out. Wash and dry whatever you can put away easily. Wash things by type - I'll do cups then plates, then cutlery, then pots..... 3. Kitchen surfaces - tidy things you can, be ruthless - everything is going to need a home. Sweep the floor, wipe the surfaces. 4. Pick up all laundry around the house. Start to sort it out so you are in control of it - wash types together - eg all sheets. 4. bathroom - so on..... Then, the entire house is an better environment. and you can just keep going.

Why is it left to a friend of the victim to seek information?

Same can be said for the current and prior governments

well they'd best pull their socks up as Reform are hot on their heels - and getting caught with their pants down is ridiculously stupid. The electorate do not take kindly to thieving and greedy politicians.

Interesting you mention that - I only have the 'posh' pigeon visitor now - the scruffy ones aren't around in my garden either. I haven't seen the crows for a while either. Or the parakeets.

The news was circulated on our local social media group - I don't know what is on standard media
