Just a heads up - a house in Underhill Road was burgled (door kicked-in) at about 5:30 on Saturday afternoon. The police were called almost immediately (within 2 minutes of the sound of the door being kicked in) but missed the robbers by about 2 minutes - apparently they had been held up during a demonstration (or something) in Peckham. The police were given a description of two of the robbers (apparently there was a third in a car, which was also described to the police). The two described were IC3 males in (at best) early 20s. Possibly younger. The house was empty (nobody in, not un-lived-in) at the time.
Two people were seen running to get into a car (small saloon/ hatchback and dark) at the time of the burglary, by a separate witness to the burglary. The description and registration details were given to the police at the time. There is supposition, but no proof, that the burglars and the people who jumped into the car were the same people. Again, the use of a police descriptor (IC3) was used as that descriptor is used to say what the observer believed the ethnicity of the individual was (what they looked like to the observer)- which is not (necessarily) the same as the ethnicity which would be claimed by the person observed. I'm not sure (considering the police have the actual registration number) why the car description would be additionally useful on these pages.

    • Maggie Browning usually very good responding to emails. Roving surgeries - we got a letter some time ago that they were in Barry Road between certain times - but neither neighbours of ourselves saw them. Face to face surgeries rarely held now due to violent attacks on MPS and Councillors.
    • Just for information: I see that the Licensing Sub-committee has the Tesco application as item 1 on their 24 July meeting agenda.  https://moderngov.southwark.gov.uk/ieListDocuments.aspx?CId=172&MId=8329. The officer's report to the committtee provides a good succinct summary.  I see, from (original) p.31 of the full public pack, (or more conveniently the supporting documents) that Tesco Legal Dept on 12 June reported that they'd agreed with the police's suggested conditions to be attached to the licence, and the police accordingly withdrew their own representation.  That leaves just one representation, from a member of the public, to be dealt with on the day. I still think it's not necessarily to be presumed that Tesco will definitely be taking over the premises.  I see that Poundland themselves were granted an off-sales licence on 21 Feb 2023, and surrendered it on 3 July 2025.  I'm not sure they actually ever used it themselves.  Did they? https://www.southwark.gov.uk/sites/default/files/2024-09/Statement of Licensing Policy 2021-2026.pdf is a full statement of the policy and its application, for thems as is interested.

    • Well, quite. Do you know where your lad's going tonight?
