Sorry - I'm not sure what that's got to do with his views on paving on Lordship Lane.


There is wonderful paving outside of Dulwich Park on Court Lane. Why cant LL have the same upgrade.

Because you accused him of being more interested in looking after Court Lane than Lordship:


> I always think that if JB actually lived near LL

> things might be different - he's happier looking

> after Court Lane than Lordship Lane


so I was pointing out that in my experience, where he's gone out of his way to try to sort an issue not even in his ward, he is not as self-interested or parochial as you seem to imply.

I also think the pavement along Lordship Lane is awful. I've just moved from Peckham to ED and noticed that the pavements are really bad. I tripped the other day on Crawthaw Road and am worried that I could easily trip outside the strip of shops near St Christopher's Hospice.
Part of the issue (it seems to me) is the pavements on the forecourts of local shops which the shop is responsible for, not the bit along the road which the council is responsible for. Any wholesale upgrade of the pavement would/should involve both bits which would be complex to organise. I definitely agree it needs looking at, but I wonder if this is part of why it hasn't happened before now.
The Council can order shops to keep their forecourts in good order - but obviously need to have ideas from local residents/visitors of the problem. Remember some years ago that following a number of complaints, Southwark council ordered a row of shop keepers to repair their forecourts or council would do it for them and charge. The shop keepers/owners failed to follow this through and Southwark did as threaten and charged for the work. Since then, those shop keepers have been more careful.

As promised to keep you updated of progress on complaint of pavements on LL, so far I have received this reply from the Environment Services. Step 1.

    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge". 
    • Can’t imagine what it must be like you have your doorbell rung harshly.
