- Person posted honest recommendation

- DulwichFox "called them out" for being dishonest and flagged up previous personal differences and brought up Louisa.

- I said I feel sad that person is picked on for an honest review and have a word with DulwichFox. (I've spoken to DF and all's well).

- *cue dark clouds, lightning and thunder* Louisa says she is picked on, say it's my choice when people can be disrespectful to other members of the forum and complains that honest people are favoured over her.


Louisa, you were confined to the Lounge for persistently taking threads off topic and reducing them to your thoughts on class and gentrification, it was making parts of the forum unpleasant for others. At least you now have your stage and your own personal spotlight focused on you in the Lounge, lighten up and enjoy it.

Just to further clarify this: I think it's particularly lame/weak/aesthetically unappealing when posters with no particular horse in the race pile in to take a pop at these two, once the point is well and truly made, as on this thread. "Me too sir, me too, I also think they were naughty, can I have a star?".

Not at all.


Your opinions are often valid - important, even. But then, you also post a lot of nonsense. Which many of us realise is a joke (albeit it an odd one), but the casual reader might not.

Numbers and *Bob* so far, as usual where DF&Lou are concerned.

Not when Lou has no right of reply in that section it cant.

Now look, Grok (aka "I agree with Foxy") I'm sick of 'the usual suspects' complaining about cliques on here, about how they gang up and share in-jokes and have exactly the same pov about EVERYTHING and probably often PM each other with who-smells-like-what jibes - and I'm NEVER included.


Never put in anyone's bloody clique.


What's wrong?! I wash!

I also think that at one time it seemed like people were emboldened and rushed to have a dig at Lou and/or foxy. But I can also see why Lou and foxy were doing people's heads in at that time.


I've always rather liked Lou's class war thing, and in some ways I've always been with her. Foxy is a good chap, but one who will not be proved wrong, even when he's been proved wrong, which can be grating. But I think both should be allowed to post wherever, there are far more abbrasive posters in the main section who seem to say what they like.

Otta thanks for the kind words. I appreciate I had gotten on people's nerves, and probably still do. Being confined to the lounge just limits my audience so maybe that's why I'm tolerated more here. However, as admin knows only too well, my class related/gentrification comments are just the tip of the iceburg. You can confine me to the lounge, but you'll never silence me on the consequences of not acting upon this. The very people who have damaged this area are the types who post about dog mess, organic gift shops and hipster bread in the main section, hence why they hate me because I've got their number (and they know it). It infuriates them that someone like me exposes their hidden contempt for working class people, and I find that mildly amusing. As you rightly point out Otta, lots of smarmy loud mouths elsewhere on the forum who are never pulled up on their comments. I was picked on for one reason alone, my influence. Too much exposure in main the section. Wouldn't want the media catching on that not everyone is happy with gentrification now would we? And this person who foxy pulled up, only ever comments on businesses aimed at the new people who've settled around here. Funny that.


Louisa.

Don't worry, self-aggrandising delusional bollocks is fine here in the lounge. Carry on.

*Bob* you will never receive a ban. Admin adores you, as do I. However, you need to be careful, the clique are circling us individuals waiting to pounce. Using positive business feedback on the forum as a guise to slowly erode away individuality and I believe admin is in on it too. Lots of cosying up earlier. The fox, a famous local face given official warning for exposing more undercover gentrification by the back door nonsense in the main section. Just be careful.


Louisa.

Totally agree. Just hoping for the next instalment: when the alleged party house strikes back.

No, I was wearing flat shoes, if I wear heels I don't need an uneven paving stone to be likely to fall over :))


Just found that post really really odd!

    • The tenant's business has already failed. If the landlord doesn't accept it, they can have a vacant property, stand in the queue of creditors, and get paid little or nothing. It's a gamble that the restructuring will work and the tenant will start paying rent again. Commercial properties are often hard to let. 🤷
    • An inquiry will put a huge amount of time and resource into looking at what happened in the past and why it happened and who was responsible and, in a year or two maybe more, a report will be produced and actions may or may not be taken, some of those responsible for bad decisions will already have resigned and moved on.   Given that we now already understand some of the issues that allowed this awful behaviour to continue unchallenged, my concern is less about whether there is an inquiry to examine what happened in the past but about what is being done right now to protect girls and young women from predatory and exploitative men in whatever race or identity they come in. Inquiries examine the past but don't necessarily solve problems and they certainly don't come up with conclusions quickly which is why they can often feel hollow.  I'd rather see perpetrators and those that let the perpetrators act with impunity, actually being prosecuted and an inquiry won't do that.  I suspect that's why some MPs voted against an inquiry. But do feel free to give me examples of inquiries that really made a difference and actually changed things in a timely and effective way.      
    • In recent consultation on further ED CPZ the majority of respondents were against. Fully appreciate you may not live on a road proposed for CPZ. If you are close to that area it is likely you will be affected by parking displacement if the CPZ goes in. I was just curious what James Barber's position on this is? Perhaps he'll come on here and let us know. He was always really good at visiting the forum.
