CAP's been a mess for years (or always) so I was alwasys suprised how little airing this got during the campaign. If we don't subsidise farming/guarantee prices (whether nationally or across Europe) we stop growing stuff as we did in the early part of the 20th century risking food security, particulaly in the heightened liklihood of war across Europe (yes I am milking this). Good metaphor.


I get all my info from the Archers, so I expect the market to be flooded with cheap Polish lamb.

But at least you'll have a jolly song to hum while it does.


All together now: dumpty dumpty dumpty dum, dumpy dumpy dum-dum...

The idea that the UK will 'do regulation' better than the EU is pretty dubious imo. Sometimes I'm sure we will (it would be hard not to do better policy than in the example of CAP), but occasionally we'll do it worse, or no differently. We will still have to sell into overseas markets and so largely, I suspect many regulations, including food regulations, will remain the same. All the stuff about bendy bananas and what constitutes free range etc is petty stuff, beloved of tabloid newspapers, but largely misreported and / or an irrelevance. The fact that people can get so enraged by these stories, amazes me.

I meant to apologise only about mixing you up, not calling you a 'Tit'


Just so we're clear.

    • Don't see an issue at all. Siunds like the protest is being made by friends and families of the two off licences, Morleys, pret and maxim chicken who are within 100 m of the school. Much ado about nothing. Besides if it doesn't proceed, the kids will walk a but further!!
    • Whilst I agree to some extent,  are they going to have some kind of checkpoint?  I can't see how this could work in practice. Surely Southwark residents go to these places quite frequently as well, particularly Tate Modern?  Will we have to take proof of residency every time we go out? What happens when family are with us who don't live in Southwark? Will other London boroughs start doing the same thing? Will Southwark residents be charged a tourist tax to visit "tourist attractions" in other areas, eg the V&A and the British Museum?
    • A shout out for Mark, owner of Pure Plumbers. 07970 971510 They're well established in the Sevenoaks area, but have recently started doing more work in SE London.  Did some v quick and efficient bathroom and boiler fixes for me; have also seen some of the bathrooms he's built, which have a nice attention to detail.

    • Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?
