I got back from my long ( 4200 miles!) trip to Thessalon?ki Greece yesterday having delivered all the clothes & toys you all so generously donated. The charity I was working with Drapen I Havet. A drop in the ocean are under huge pressure to help the refugees in the very cold weather & horrific conditions out there. The refugee camps are under high security due to attacks from various factions, so I was not allowed to work in the camps, but your donations went to help them, an orphanage & the homeless.

The situation is not being improved by other European governments trying to send their refugees back to Greece!! So please continue to make donations, contributions including questioning your MP as to what is being done in our name to help these people.

We will be making a contribution each month to A drop in the ocean & looking for opportunities to make a difference, no matter how small.

So, once again a huge thank you for all your help

Nigel

      I have fond memories of Govinda's I used to go there  back in the 90's (maybe earlier) for an affordable tasty lunch..I was wondering if its still around. Now I have to make a point of going there. Does anyone else remember a really affordable basement cafe run by the church in a street off of Golden Square? parallel to Regent Street? I also used to love the Vegetarian cafe on Neal Street in the basement (Neal Street Cafe?) and there was an inczredible inexpensive authentic Japanese resturant I use to go to with my Japanese friends (who introduced me to it) tucked away behind Long Acre where that brown brick modern building ('modern' I think it went up in the 90's!) now stands that fronts Long Acre and Neal Street..I think it was called Asakasa or something?

      Did Dulwich College tolerate pupils' bigotry and racism...?

      I wonder where he could be deported to, Hungary the obvious candidate in Europe, perhaps he would get on well with Modi?   Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage both said Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood should look at whether Abd El Fattah's citizenship could be revoked to enable his swift removal from the UK. Farage said in a letter to Mahmood: "It should go without saying that anyone who possesses racist and anti-British views such as those of [Mr Abd El Fattah] should not be allowed into the UK." So just racists views are ok Nige?
