A huge thank you to the thousands of people who turned up today to share the sun and join in with Goose Green Primary School's Carnival and Summer Fair. We estimate that over two thousand people joined with us to celebrate the fantastic achievements of this local primary school.

Thank you to all the mums, dads, carers, teachers and children who helped make this the biggest and best Carnival Parade and Fair ever! And a special thank you to the London Fire Brigade for coming and showering us all with cool water in the midday sun.

Thank you Ann for your lovely comments! Yes, we were all very conscious to do a through clean up but as the old saying goes 'many hands make light work' and the PTA carnival committee was able to retire to the pub by 6pm after clearing the green - which was only possible due to all the volunteers who helped to clear up - not to mention the fantasitic volunteer drivers who loaded things in the van (donated by John Allen flowers) and took things back to the school. It was a fantastic day - great atmosphere with kids, parents, teachers, residents all joining in the fun. Thanks to all the community for your support of Goose Green Primary School!

It was great that Southwark Council, for the first time, managed to get recycling containers to the Green for our fair. And they did come at the end of the day to collect all the black bin bags so that the foxes can't get into them over night and the rubbish blows all over the Green.


It'd be great to have one of those recycling containers on the Green permanently.

    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.   
    • Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one.  In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.
    • I guess its the thing these days to demonstrate an attitude, in this instance seemingly of the negative kind, instead of taking pride in your work and have standards then 🤷‍♀️
