I wonder if the people who had the party in the Underhill Road/Belvoir Road area have any idea how miserable it is for neighbours when fireworks start up after 10.30 at night and then music, shouting and singing carry on until the early hours. I think the plug was finally pulled about about 2.20am midway through dancing queen. I love a good party but that has to be taking it too far. I just about managed 3 hours sleep.

And a health hazard *Bob*. They should be banned altogether. We can't have people enjoying themselves. It just won't do.

You crazy guys with all your mental parties - how amazingly cool.


Why should you have the right in a residential area to play music loud enough to disturb people in neighbouring houses (past the time allowed for pubs and public events) even if it is only one night?

      Taxes

      Wow I had no idea they give you 5% in perfume for your accommodation. You're right, I need to travel more.

      Taxes

      By Cyclemonkey · Posted

      Do none of you go abroad.  Tourist taxes are really common in continental Europe and do vary a lot city by city. They are collected by the hotels/rental apartments. They are usually a  tiny part of your holiday costs.  In Narbonne recently we paid €1.30 per person per night.  The next town we went to charge 80 cents per person per night. By comparison Cologne is 5% of your accomodation.

      Taxes

      Hey Sue, I was wrong - I don't think it would just be for foreign tourists. So yeah I assume that, if someone lives in Lewisham and wants to say the night in southwark, they'd pay a levy.  The hotels wouldn't need to vet anyone's address or passports - the levy is automatically added on top of the bill by every hotel / BnB / hostel and passed on to Southwark. So basically, you're paying an extra two quid a night, or whatever, to stay in this borough.  It's a great way to drive footfall... to the other London boroughs.  https://www.ukpropertyaccountants.co.uk/uk-tourist-tax-exploring-the-rise-of-visitor-levies-and-foreign-property-charges/

      Taxes

      By David Peckham · Posted

      Pretty much, Sue, yeah. It's the perennial, knotty problem of imposing a tax and balancing that with the cost of collecting it.  The famous one was the dog licence - I think it was 37 1/2 pence when it was abolished, but the revenue didn't' come close to covering the administration costs. As much I'd love to have a Stasi patrolling the South Bank, looking for mullet haircuts, unshaven armpits, overly expressive hand movements and red Kicker shoes, I'm afraid your modern Continental is almost indistinguishable from your modern Londoner. That's Schengen for you. So you couldn't justify it from an ROI point of view, really. This scheme seems a pretty good idea, overall. It's not perfect, but it's cheap to implement and takes some tax burden off Southwark residents.   'The Man' has got wise to this. It's got bad juju now. If you're looking to rinse medium to large amounts of small denomination notes, there are far better ways. Please drop me a direct message if you'd like to discuss this matter further.   Kind Regards  Dave
