Charm personified. Such a constructive, helpful and friendly contribution.
  2. There are numbers from our esteemed Home Secretary in that article, so I would imagine that ?three hundred thousand, and thirty four, nine hundred and seventy four thousand? something or others are involved.
  3. It was named after Tessa Jowell because local people selected the name amongst many other options in a public vote. Obviously those who had a higher opinion of her than you did.

Honestly, my political axes are ground out having worked for Tessa Jowell for 23 years until 2015 when she stood down as the local MP. I was speaking about the specific case of the hospital site and I?m sure you might understand that I?m not hugely keen to have my former boss written out of the history of that particular story. Especially when the record shows me to be telling the truth: /forum/read.php?5,1407450,page=1 /forum/read.php?29,1405452,1408612#msg-1408612

To be accurate Mr Barber was the driving force behind getting an unwanted primary school approved for the site, the catchment area for which, rather bizarrely, would have been towards Nunhead. A whole load of unravelling was required by committed parents? groups, councillors and the then MP, Tessa Jowell, to sort that one out so that the more appropriate secondary school, in terms of local need for our community, was built there instead. As far as I am aware it has always been the plan to retain at least the facade of the ?chateau? former main entrance structure.
  6. The conditions will provide for the fact that the new stadium has to be ?completed and operational? before work commences on the residential development. It?s rather hard to see that condition being circumvented in plain sight.

It is the Peckham West CPZ that is due to go live shortly (not ED). As the ?Coronavirus? section of Southwark?s site (linked to by @Paulo above) explains, many aspects of parking enforcement generally have been put on hold. In that zone specifically (PW) there will be an extended period of warning notices. https://www.southwark.gov.uk/health-and-wellbeing/public-health/for-the-public/coronavirus/coronavirus-parking-restrictions-and-controlled-parking-zones
  8. The magic of the FA Cup returns to Champion Hill today with Dulwich Hamlet taking on Eastbourne Borough at 3pm. As usual, ?12 for Adults, ?5 for a wide range of concessions and under 13s go free. Turnstiles open from noon.
  9. I raised it already. My point is there is little correlation between the introduction of this charge and the political control of local authorities and it is disingenuous to pretend otherwise. There are 3 LibDem controlled councils in London and they all charge for garden waste collection. Kingston, as detailed above, Sutton which charges ?65 pa and Richmond where you have to buy a designated bin for ?28 and there is then an ongoing charge of ?35 every six months (or ?26 every six months if you?re over 75).
  10. So why was LibDem Kingston one of the first Boroughs in London to introduce such a charge and why is their fee (?72) almost two and a half times that proposed by Southwark? Please don?t treat us like children and do a ?let?s pretend? that your lot wouldn?t have done the same if the electors of this fine borough had seen fit to put their trust in you and your mates last May.
  11. As an aside - how much does EDPH pay its staff compared with PeckhamPlex? No idea what the answer is but I?d venture a guess - despite the grief that has been dished out to one compared to the ?independent? other. Happy to receive informed advice to the contrary of course.
  12. As Mr Barber refers to his Liberal Democrat affiliation in a signature and attacks the Labour Council in Southwark, I thought it might be interesting to compare the situation here with that in Liberal Democrat controlled Kingston upon Thames. They already charge for garden waste collections via a wheelie bin to the tune of ?72 per financial year for a fortnightly service. They also charge for bulk waste collections: ?35 for up to 4 items and ?55 for between 5 and 8 items. So let?s not pretend that these decisions are being taken in isolation by Southwark without anything similar (or indeed, twice as expensive) being introduced in other boroughs. I assume that Mr Barber wouldn?t argue that Kingston upon Thames has become a bonfire-choked, fly-tipped wasteland, akin to his dystopian view of Southwark?s future, since Kingston upon Thames introduced their, relatively exorbitant, charges?
  13. There was a Hannah Walker who was Editor of the South London Press for a long time. Her current email address is, afaik: [email protected]

With regard to your earlier question regarding advance sale of tickets for the Chelmsford City game, they are now on sale from the bar from 6pm every evening:
