I remember my cousin telling about 7/7... She was on the train behind the one that was bombed at Kings X... She was told by her office (very big law firm) to come in to work ASAP!!! Later that day there was a bomb scare, and she received a memo telling her to lower her bomb blind and continue working!!!!!


She has since left the firm!

My mate lives a couple of doors down from the house that is being 'guarded' by nice policemen with rifles. They arrived about 10pm on Thursday night so is in no way connected with the car bomb attempts in London as that didn't kick off till Friday morning.


He said he saw the shift change on Friday evening and witnessed a woman pumping them for information but to no avail, all they said was that it was a 'precaution'. We thought maybe it was witness protection or summat.


How on earth do people find out about the home secretary's sister living there! Now that is some serious jungle drums.

Gosh, I'm moving back to ED after a three-year sojourn in Poole and I'm already nervous/exhilarated by all the goings-on (#40 window-smashing, etc). A few years ago I lived in Pimlico opposite a cabinet minister and there were always police stationed outside. Very helpful and tolerant of our drunken cone-stealing they were too.

My husbands building firm is based on choumert road and for the last few weeks my darling and his workmates have had the pleasure of being eyeballed by the police who stand guard over our home secretary.They think its because they are all from belfast,i think its because they need to wash their faces of a morning and at least be a bit presentable while they stand and drink their tea on her doorstep.I personall feel sorry for my hubby he looks the most suspicious with his loud belfast accent,big boots,scar and tattoos >:D

      I’ve tried to find details of surgeries being held before but not found any. The section of the Southwark website that details councillors’ surgeries says that: Your locally elected Councillors will be holding a roving surgery programme in the Dulwich Hill area to enable residents to raise any local issues. Residents will be notified by letter in advance of the date, time and specific streets/roads where the surgery will take place.  Surgeries are not held in August, on Bank Holidays, Easter or in Christmas Week.  Dulwich Hill Ward Councillors I’ve never seen any notification of surgeries being held, including on the DH councillors’ social media accounts. I don’t know if any other residents of Dulwich Hill have? Neighbouring wards all seem to have times and places posted for surgeries.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By David Peckham · Posted

      I wouldn't feel too bad about that. It's one of the few degree areas that you can do a BA or a BSc in, so it's a fairly wide-ranging and complex subject. Certainly Truss, Kwasi and Reeves seem to struggle with it.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      I can't access the article - what's the gist?  I took the markets getting jittery when she was crying at PMQs to be a sign that they trusted her. But maybe it was because they were simply worried about any form of instability.  The NIC hikes have stymied the economy, which we could all see a mile off. Will a wealth tax improve things? Does anyone here think the trickle down has any impact and that chasing out the super rich will help things? Or are we just seeing off the biggest contributors to the economy? And has the Kwasi approach ever worked anywhere else?  Economics is not my strong point at all, I'd love to know others' opinions, but it seems to be she has few options, especially as the party is so divided.

      does either of them have a surgery? probably not over summer, but I thought they had to give the opportunity for their constituents to meet them.
