I'd suggest following up seperately from James Barber if it's not just a "ponding issue" and it's actually dangerous


There seems to be something additional going on for him when it comes to lordship lane pavements

Fixing Lordship Lane pavements. We have some limited devolved highway repair budget each year.

Rosie and I have reported various ponding issues which are we've been assured being looking at for repairs.

One larger area hasn't had agreement from all the landlords and without all agreeing this larger pavement renewal can't proceed."

"We have some limited devolved highway repair budget each year."


All the more important then to make sure contractors work to a warranty, have to come back and fix where their paving fails, and agreed quality / standards are applied (and inspected).

    • Unfortunately there are two ways of examining this, if we even had the figures. The first is simply to look at the revenues paid to the Council and see if the costs (in terms of setting it up and recovery from it, including administrative cost) are less than the revenues. This would be quite simple to do assuming we could agree the proper allocation of those costs. But additionally we have the amenity cost to those Southwark residents either (a) losing amenity value through e.g. disruption, and secondly losing amenity value by being excluded from parts of a public park for an extended period in summer. That is not a fiscal cost to the council and clearly they don't give a damn, but that would be the only way of judging whether this event was of overall net benefit to Southwark residents, the only people who the council should be 'working' for. Don't hold your breaths.

    • I need a trundle bed! 2 single beds that convert into one double bed. Preferably wooden. If you have one that you no longer use/would like to sell, please get in touch via PM.  Thank you 
    • Dulwich College had the "luck" of those allegations landing right in the middle of COVID when the media and everyone else was a bit distracted. And then to make double sure the discontent was suppressed, it threatened kids who wanted to demonstrate with police action. The kids at the time said: "Dulwich College has for years totally ignored, dismissed and condoned by turning a blind eye, this predatory behaviour by students... A protest was students’ only way to pressure the headmaster to actually tackle the sexual violence at his school.” The march by pupils of several schools was advertised on social media as “a demonstration against the predatory culture of Dulwich College and the school management [which] condones it". https://www.theguardian.com/education/2021/mar/26/dulwich-college-head-warns-pupils-over-culture-protest
