And we must be able to do something about the smell, and the smelly people who wander around and make the place look untidy.

In this age of modern technology the council must be able to organise a crop duster full of febreze to spray the high street every day?

Oh, and each lamp post could be fitted with an atomiser that releases chanel no5 and timed intervals...


Sigh, hopefully this thread is a wind up...

Me too. Elephant and Castle has a couple of them. Why would you want to pay over the odds for something when you can get it for less. If a Waitrose or M&S came then the traffic would be a lot worse.

Wind up? Nooooooooo....I was just going to add can we rid the streets of Liberal Democrats too? :)


Having said that, I am suddenly reminded of the words of Pastor Niemoller....wih some ammendments ahem...


'They came first for Iceland,

and I didn't speak up because I didn't shop at Iceland.


Then they came for the ugly people,

and I didn't speak up because I wasn't ugly.


Then they came for smelly people,

and I didn't speak up because I wasn't smelly.


Then they came for Liberal Democrats,

and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Liberal Democrat.


Then they came for me

and East Dulwich had no-one left in it to speak for me.'

As others see us.


Just ten days for you to show your hand,

you say now? lets get rid of handy Iceland?.

The North Pole is in the northern hemisphere,

so Iceland should be found quite near.

It has been sited near the road of North Cross,

why move it away now ? I am at a total loss.


A Ninety Nine Pence store might be an attraction,

but at Pound Shop would cost more just a fraction.

A penny saved in the pocket may not seem a lot,

soon they will accumulate to fill up that Piggy pot.

Glasses bought there can help with your vision,

why pay more elsewhere that is your decision.


Please do not leave your trolley in the shopping aisle,

to get past a deserted one might take you a while.

Who moved the trolley now that it cant be found,

might have been those rats, or were they all drowned.

Don?t abandon your trolley in the stores car park,

a runaway one can make on a car, a dent mark.


And when can we get rid of all ugly people about,

just take a minute before you start to shout.

Go buy a mirror from the store that you selected,

take a good look at person that is reflected.

Think again on the remark you made so smugly.

Could it be you who is the one who is so ugly?

Bit rough on Sally, eh? I rarely visit Iceland, not with Sainsbury's DKH as my corner shop, but Sally's entitled, de gustibus!, to find it an aesthetic outlier. Or so it seems to me.


Whether Waitrose / M&S Simply Food would be an upgrade... there, I'm not sure.


And as far as pressing a campaign... oh, just fetch me a cider from the fridge, there's a love, I can't be bothered to get up myself.

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By Blah Blah · Posted

      Morally they should, but we don't actually vote for parties in our electoral system. We vote for a parliamentary (or council) representative. That candidates group together under party unbrellas is irrelevant. We have a 'representative' democracy, not a party political one (if that makes sense). That's where I am on things at the moment. Reform are knocking on the door of the BNP, and using wedge issues to bait emotional rage. The Greens are knocking on the door of the hard left, sweeping up the Corbynista idealists. But it's worth saying that both are only ascending because of the failures of the two main parties and the successive governments they have led. Large parts of the country have been left in economic decline for decades, while city fat cats became uber wealthy. Young people have been screwed over by student loans. Housing is 40 years of commoditisation, removing affordabilty beyond the reach of too many. Decently paid, secure jobs, seem to be a thing of the past. Which of the main parties can people turn to, to fix any of these things, when the main parties are the reason for the mess that has been allowed to evolve? Reform certainly aren't the answer to those things. The Greens may aspire to do something meaningful about some of them, but where will they find the money to pay for it? None of it's easy.

      Yes, but the context is important and the reason.

      That messes up Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland - democracy being based on citizenship not literacy. There's intentionally no one language that campaign materials have to be in.

      TBH if people don't see what is sectarian in the materials linked to above when they read about them, then I don't think me going on about it will help. They speak for themselves.  I don't know how the Greens can justify promising to be a strong voice for one particular religion. Will that pledge hold when it comes to campaigning in East Dulwich (which is majority atheist)? https://censusdata.uk/e02000836-east-dulwich/ts030-religion
