Whatever you think of the Labour Party, it's pretty rich of you Mitch to make the suggestion that Tessa does not show her face around Dulwich. She's always around doing something.

On a wider point, every comment I've read about the election has been laced with cynicism and complacency. My view is that if you don't believe in the political process and have no intention of voting, then don't bother commenting and subjecting the rest of the world to your lack of interest.

Politics matters!

Cynicism is one thing, but what on earth gives you the gall loftily to suggest that the people commenting on politics on this forum are not planning to vote?

Tony, as you say, you were talking about someone else so I won't take offence, but for info, I love politics and will certainly vote.


I should admit to being biased in my anti-Tessa comments.


On a separate note, I do think the minor parties should get more media coverage. At least they have different opinions. The Lib Dems get equal coverage to the Tories and Labour, despite garnerning half the votes.

Parliament's still sitting this week. Even then, she'll still carry on being a cabinet minister, so may have other demands on her time. Is there any specific detriment in her not having been on your particular doorstep yesterday, today, tomorrow, ...?


Come to that, I've had no candidates at all at my door yet. Should I be wailing about them all? Perhaps they all think they have it in the bag.

Hi everybody,


Just been shopping on Lordship Lane - where were you? ;-)


I'm out and about tomorrow - advice session at Kingswood House followed by discussions with the police and private visits to relatives of a constituent who was the victim of a serious crime. West Norwood and Lordship Lane on Saturday and campaigning hard on Sunday.


On Monday I am at an LGBT event at the Ritzy from 6pm to 8pm. On which subject - in case you've missed it - you can see the real face of David Cameron here:



Proof, along with the recent comments by Chris Grayling, that the Tories are just pretending to be comfortable in modern, tolerant Britain, when actually they're just the same old Tories.


What a beautiful day in East Dulwich. I love this time of the year when the blossom is just fantastic.


Tessa Jowell

Hmmm, let me see. 12.37 on a Thursday. Where was I? Oh yes, in the office, doing an honest day's work (not a phrase I'd expect an MP to understand), all for the privilege of giving half of my salary to the government to flush down the toilet. Still, nice to know that our local MP was out and about enjoying the sunshine and getting the shopping in. Hopefully after May 6th she'll have a bit more time for things like that...

    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
    • Oh dear, hope you are OK, I've had it three times and it was worse each time, but not a patch on many of those who got it before they vac' role out. Not commenting on the discussion as I got confused many days ago beyond the reminder that Corbyn would not compromise and the harm that could lead to him, the party and regards Brexit pre and post referendum the country.  Starmer goes too far the other way at times.  
    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.   
    • @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance).
