I just had a call from my friend who lives that way saying a massive HGV rolled backwards into a pedestrian, dragging her under, apparently her head went under the wheel! :'(


Not sure how conclusive this is as we know how these things become chinese whispers:-S


Awful if true though, it's all cloesed still apparently.

I was reflecting in an objective manner on an incident from my own past which was quite distressing to all involved at the time. It was most unpleasant indeed - but then again so is the subject of this thread so I don't quite know why one is edited and the other not.

She was a young black 29 year old woman just trying to catch the train in time. She was leaving LLoyds bank and somebody I know was exiting the bank at the same time, she held the door for people then crossed the road , the lorry was coming toward her and was not going too fast apparently, the lorry caught her and unfortunately ran over her. Poor girl. Poor family. This is the second incident this year that I know of tall lorries running over people. They should have sensors or something in place to help prevent this.

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant.
