But for the avoidance of doubt there were experts on both sides and so-called experts and 'experts' in abundance too. I thought there were more dodgy 'experts' trotted out on the Remain side (probably because of the vested interests they tend to have) but that is nothing whatsoever to do with whether I favoured Remain or Leave - just my view.


But to suggest (as you seem to) that I've taken a view against certain 'experts' because they were in favour of the Remain camp just underlines the fact that you have not read my post properly - had you done so it would have been pretty clear I voted to remain, otherwise I would not have said "I'm disappointed about the vote result"!

no, it's not.

Define vested interest (V) amounts as follows:


RSCE - remain so-called experts V

LSCE - leave so-called experts V

RE - remain experts V

LE - leave experts V

R - remain opinion holders in general V

L - leave opinion holders in general V


Are you saying:

RSCE > LSCE

RE > LE

R > L


...or something else?

Sorry but that's complete nonsense! Your time would have been better spent reading my clear and simple wording than writing all that guff!


To save you scrolling up - I said "I thought there were more dodgy 'experts' trotted out on the Remain side (probably because of the vested interests they tend to have).


What part of that sentence don't you understand? You ask "who is 'they'?" Seriously?

Many champagne socialists of the Corbynite camp use the Co-op....

I think the Archbishop of Canterbury summed it up when he said the poor suffer under mass immigration.

And the poor may also be poorly educated and unable to hold their own in this debate- which is dominated by the verbosity of the hysterical middle-classes, who, in the main, branded them racist- completely out of hand.

No. But then I'm pleased to say that in the real world neither do I come across people that deliberately try to pick an argument by setting up false constructs or by asking fatuous questions designed merely to provoke a response or to make a bad point.

    • Not with all the bins currently stored there.
    • We both own the freehold. They’re in the maisonette and I’m in the flat. They’re older, so with any luck, they’ll be selling soon. Unfortunately, due to recent events, all of this now has to be disclosed on the TA6 form. Honestly, I’d move out of sheer shame if I were them. Poisoning fruit trees planted for children is just cruel, and they haven’t even apologised. I genuinely wonder how they justify this to themselves. Envy is such a toxic and destructive emotion, and sadly, it often explains behaviour like this. I just wanted to say how grateful I am for the support from so many of you, especially at the East Dulwich Forum drinks and for the kind messages on both this forum and the Nextdoor app. It’s genuinely reassuring to know there are still decent, supportive neighbours around.
    • Hmm, you seem to have an agenda.  I like ait of measured that they have done to promote active travel, improving pedestrian and cyclist safety, whilst improving the streetscape. I avoid making sweeping statements about wildlife management as I don't know enough about their policies, and expect some in Southwark are passionate about what they do. Go along to a relevant local meeting and ask, I doubt if you will change a thing by posting here.  
    • It wouldn't surprise me at all.   The council used to spray the pavements all the time b4 lockdown.  They are probably doing it again.
