It feels horrible for my family because as a kid it was great to have a taste of home on the doorstep lots of goods and ingredients we as a family would have had to travel many miles to find elsewhere in london. Peckham has morrisons, asda and tesco already and I don't see why people who contribute to the local economy are looked down upon in this way like they are a disease that needs flushing out. Why can there not be space for everyone? I never judge other people and the places they choose to shop why is it the people who encourage thriving indepedent business in Peckham are seen in such a negative way?

the existing folk provide a great service to the community offering goods and services they would struggle to find elsewhere. Your version of a sh.thole is another's paradise. The rates are low but it retains the vibrancy and unlike many bland london high street's it has flavour and vibrancy.

The cynic in me would conclude that the interested parties (particularly landlords and council) would prefer to go ahead with a social cleansing of the station front in order to excel gentrification of Peckham.
