Whoever owns it obviously doesn't need the rent.

I agree with Head Nun. My experience is very similar and has been so for the 25 years I've lived in London. They got a lot worse after the Tour de France came here though. And then the Olympics.

Cyclists as a whole are the most antisocial people in London. Some of them are OK but the overwhelming majority couldn't give two hoots about obeying the highway code or showing any respect whatsoever to fellow citizens.

The reason there were so many diesel cars os because the last Labour government actively encouraged people to buy diesel instead of petrol. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/labour-diesel-vehicles-health-warnings-impact-cars-air-pollution-tony-blair-gordon-brown-2000-budget-a8062301.html Then the Labour mayor shafted everyone who fell for that.

Bring back James Barber!

He's moved to the right a fair bit though since Keir Starmer changed the Labour Party. Describes himself as a Socialist now, and has abandoned Marxism.

Casting aspersions about their funding because you have no answer to their arguments is a really shabby way to engage with this important issue. You should try to be better.

On the car parking point I don't thunk the council will allow a development to have parking and also residents are required to accept that they won't be allowed a parking permit anywhere.

Everyone gets that they are terrible at budgeting. The point the OP has repeatedly made is that they are even worse at being transparent.

There seem to be two campaigns against Barclays at the moment. One is some environmentalists and the other is anti Israel.

Newts spawn? There's some newts in that fountain in Peckham Rye Park.

The council are reasonably to quick to deal with stuff reported on here too. I've had a good response to reports of pot holes, fly tipping and abandoned rubbish bins.

Surely the birds in this photo are just seagulls?

If it's this bad it's worth complaining How do I complain? If your provider fails to repair a fault by the date promised, or you are unhappy with how long it is taking, follow their formal complaints procedure. This should be explained on their website or by their customer services team. If your problem is still unresolved after eight weeks, you can complain to an independent Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) scheme. Ask your provider for a ‘deadlock’ letter so that you can refer your dispute to the relevant ADR scheme directly before the eight-week mark. There are two ADR schemes: the Communications and Internet Services Adjudication Scheme (CISAS) and Communications Ombudsman. All providers must belong to one of the schemes. Your provider will tell you which scheme it is a member of, or you can use our ADR checker.

Had similar with a tradesman on here. Lots of good reviews. First job he did was OK and reasonably priced. Next job he sent someone else along who was very mediocre, stole some stuff from me and the job ended up costing nearly twice the original estimate.

Would have been worth 4m if we'd got a Waitrose instead of screw fix. 3000 sq ft of voluminous, lateral living spaces that have been expertly curated is actually quite a lot for round here.

Their menu (on Just Eat, they dint even seem tk have their own website) looks disappointingly similar to every other generic "Chinese" restaurant. Given how long it's taken them to open it seems a shame that the offer looks quite so bland.

That site must be enormous. Not sure student digs and families with 3 year old kids are generally a good mix. I see also that Jewson have moved into the other timber yard next to kwik fit already.

Just put it in the green bin and save £80.

Protected view includes the backdrop too. So if this spoiled the view of St Paul's from a protected view in the North (Primose Hill) etc this would be a problem. This issue came up in the DHFV stadium application which itself has no view of St Paul's but might have impacted other protected views if the the housing tower blocks were too tall.

Hi Rockets, am I reading that right if I conclude that there is now 35% more traffic on East Dulwich Grove E than there was before March 2020? If so that represents a shocking failure on the part of the council. Someone should resign for that. And someone should resign for all the gaslighting telling us that there is less traffic than there was before.

If its the one I've seen (heard!) I think it might be an M4.

Louisa is still here.

I don't think it will make any noticeable difference here at all. 70% of the time they have to take off and land east to west because of the prevailing wind conditions. That means that there would only be 15 Saturdays a year when these extra 7 hours of flights will be anywhere near us.

"Not our responsibility" "we're doing a pretty good job" Shameless
