Burgess park path builders 'chicane'?
KPinED replied to AnotherPaul's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
I had a similar experience with the chicane enforcement police the other week threatening to fine. I'm all for considerate sharing of the path, but even with the work going on the path (without the chicane) is wider there than at most other parts along the Surrey Canal. It just seems rather unnecessary. -
Nice idea, would be quicker than the bus and cheaper than a tube extension, but my experience is that terrible traffic on that route is caused by the incessant digging up of the Walworth Road - and I imagine this would require many years of digging up the Walworth Road before we got the benefits!

Policing changes DEMO in East Dulwich
KPinED replied to James Barber's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
James, I understand that localism is a (largely commendable) part of your ideology, but I think "rather draconian centralist changes" is a bit of an exageration. It seems to me that the letter actually reflects a desire to make best use of available resources in line with the public's wishes. There seems to be little apetite for addressing the issue of police pensions and retirement ages; coupling this with easy political promises of maintaining numbers of "bobbys on the beat", the only real options to maintaining a service while reducing cost involve considering how to best deploy and manage staff. I also happen to think that the kind of flexibility that means that areas where there is greater need can be supplemented when necessary is an equitable thing to propose. I would have thought this would fit with the social conscience of the Lib Dems. Your concern for East Dulwich seems to be (although I appreciate that this is largely your job) an example of the vocal middle classes looking out for themselves. -
When did ED get overrun with Daily Mail readers?

Sorry Mr Liu) with dim sum would be nice! An Italian would be good as well (El Mirto doesn't count on account of having the atmosphere of a truck stop cafe).
