So the liberals have lost control of Southwark council...

[jenny1840]

How did they manage to turn a pop idol start into such a disaster in the local area. I suppose you would trade it for political influence so maybe they did not do so bad.

[????]

Because the local election coincided with a national one in a safe Labour seat....sadly that's the reason.

[jenny1840]

Sad ! You must be joking, watch your liberally funded ???? turn to pence. No more bendy lampposts and more funding and support for the new Harris academy, great news.

[????]

Sad that people don't vote on local issues was my point not the result.

[ruffers]

It almost seems a reverse of traditional trends. People used to vote libdem locally and labour nationally.

[jenny1840]

I think they did . With Labour in charge of the council it looks the 14million earmarked for the Nunhead regeneration will land in a matter of months now. Finally fiona colley and all the other peckham rye and nunhead councillors can deliver on their promises and release the funds blocked time and time again by the previous liberal executive. Can't wait to take an evening stroll down to Nunhead Village !

[Michael Palaeologus]

Of course, all budgets are likely to hammered with the much heralded austerity measures. Farewell new projects, farewell London Overground extension, farewell "ring fenced" budgets, farewell regeneration projects.

Has nobody been listening? We are in the financial poo. All of these projects are going to be cut.

[ruffers]

The liberal executive? Hmm, now where is it (who?) I've heard that expression before??

Welcome back.

[jenny1840]

Yes we have been listening and fortunately the budget has been securely ring fenced, tight as a nuns ......hat

[ianr]

>ring fenced

That's what the nice man at Equitable Life told me once.

[Huguenot]

AFN, you're such a muppet sometimes.

If the budget is 'ringfenced' it was 'ringfenced' under liberal control.

It will honestly be deleriously entertaining to watch you claim this as a Labour victory. If it even happens.

This...

"With Labour in charge of the council it looks the 14million earmarked for the Nunhead regeneration will land in a matter of months now."

...I'm going to watch with a big fat grin.

Big fat grin to go with your big fat ego, god your so righteous and up your own orifice.

[PeckhamRose]

So it IS AFN then.

[KD]

So the liberals have lost control. Period.

[Loz]

I'd be wary, Nunhead people - something has to give to pay for all the free meals for the middle class kids.

[Huguenot]

"Big fat grin to go with your big fat ego, god your so righteous and up your own orifice."

Chuckle.

What's going on in your head when you write that sally 676? Is it all kinds of fizzing and buzzing? ;-)

BTW 'your' denotes ownership, 'you're' is a shortening of 'you are'. I think in this case you meant you're...

Mind you that probably means the old grey matter has moved on from buzzing into the crackling and burping zone.

Chill out. You're not pushing burgers through fences any more.

[jenny1840]

Hey ho muppet boy , let's hope no eastern boy turns you into a glove puppet while you sit and watch. Although a hand up your unfenced ring may well spread your smile wider !

And yes miss piggy the libs did protect it you see, they were never likely to release the funds so protected it because of the pressure from the Labour councillors and residents. Their little plan went oh so wrong when they lost ! Those little yellow and blue toilet tube ferrets never saw that coming. So you sit on your little stool with wak gok for company and keep grinning. There is nothing to be sad about as the funding gets spread more evenly around the community, chin chin my dear old befudled naught.

[ruffers]

Glad that's all clear.

[Loz]

jenny1840 - are you drunk in charge of a keyboard AGAIN? The sun's hardly over the yardarm.

[Brendan]

Casting aspersions of that sort upon comrade Jenny, particularly considering her good and just praise for the honourable comrades Harriet and Tessa, is counter revolutionary dissidence only spoken by those who are enemies of the Party and/or may also enjoy sodomy. Apparently.

[jenny1840]

Hey there , electricity is back on in the mumbles wing then, that's great news. Now what is it about you liberalblue birds that has you so concerned about alcohol, did not charles ken swim in the stuff ? Last time I did a turn down the lordy lane they were pissing in the streets and baring asses to passing motorists , and that's just the EDF drinks team ! I am sure that neither the other girl or myself are on the sauce, no doubt we just pee ourselves laughing at the sheer brass neck of some of you and fire off an touch of prose. Maybe there are a few powdered kings and queens amongst you who need to log off and take a stroll now and then. Chuckles ! Wheezes ! Guffaws ! Twirls and skips, makes donkey ears and ...oh god I am doing it now. Must go my booze has arrived.

[Huguenot]

A voice from the blasted heath, no less ;-)

..... Anyone fancy a pint?
