The market is the problem... Most markets operate onto the road.

They got the road closed off to traffic but continue trading onto the pavement.

That would cause serious traffic problems for Fellbrig and Ulverscroft roads,

Whilst Fellbrigg has cut throughs to Lordship Lane, Ulverscroft has no cut throughs.

Both roads are jammed on market days meaning imposible for cars to turn round.

Do you expect residents to reverse 350 mtres to get out.

Despite the popularity of the market, it seems to me rare for all the current stall-holders with allocated spaces to actually turn up on a Saturday. Though more will turn up in the run up to Christmas, often the number of stalls is very much depleted so I think attracting stall-holders for a larger market will be difficult.

The new fence is outside the shop next to Sweet Sanctuary.


It has builders in at the moment.

I agree.


Sometimes there are very few stalls there at all.

    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
    • 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.
