Somewhere around 86 or 87 I think, though that was in another century, indeed millenium - remember support gigs at the Mean Fiddler and (I think) the Swan in Stockwell better...if there's virtue to be signalled I'm always head of the queue!


ETA God almighty I've done the maths and realise I was eighteen thirty years ago, blimey that went quick...

We also went and it was a great atmosphere. I'm sure it makes not the slighest difference to the powers that be, but at least we made some noise and made ours views felt. Learnt something from one banner "Boris was sent by God to get us out of the EU" Mind you the guy holding the banner was dressed as a little elf without any trousers so perhaps not too reliable.

Totally agree with all of this (including the bit about unfair criticism of the bbc).



But still think it's good that people are showing that they don't want it. They have EVERY right to voice their opinions, and Theresa May and her gang must absolutely not be allowed to take us out with the message that it's what "the British people" wanted.


I don't believe for a second that it will be halted, but I will never accept that something this big should be done off of a 52/48 split. It's a recipe for disunity.

I've seen him at Dulwich Park and Southwark Crown Court (outside). It might be a wild stab that he's also the author of the mimeographed screeds stuck on on the wall by the playpark at Goose Green.

It was a lovely afternoon. The turn up was good. It was sort of an antithesis to some of my earlier protests - Gulf War, Poll tax, anti-apartite in the lack of venom. This was like minded people, frustrated, but without anything we could really do about the situation. Don't knock it.


Shame on the BBC for not giving it greater coverage.

    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge". 
    • Can’t imagine what it must be like you have your doorbell rung harshly.
    • Hi all, Wondering if anyone else in/around SE22 is also having the unfortunate luck of having Evri parcels delivered by a very rude individual? Whenever we have parcels delivered, our front gate is being slammed open and closed, ring doorbell is harshly banged (not pressed) followed by simultaneously banging on the door knocker and slamming the letter box multiple times. Someone is normally home by the time they come in the evening and never has to wait long for an answer. If we’re not home, we speak to them on the doorbell so we do find the actions of this individual unreasonable and rude.  We have tried a couple of times politely asking that they not do this but they are very dismissive and gives a passive-aggressive “have a nice day” reply.  Has anyone been able to contact Evri and successfully had any issues similar to this resolved? We have enough evidence through our doorbell footage but we are lost with what else we can do. We’ve tried asking politely but don’t want our gate or door damaged by someone who simply doesn’t care and lacks basic manners.    If anyone else is having this issue or has any advice on how we can report this, it would be much appreciated. After another dismissive reply to my concern this afternoon, I will be calling Evri tomorrow to raise a complaint. I have lost my patience with them
