I read in the Standard yesterday that Southwark is having to make the hichest cuts of any London Borough. Other inner London, disadvantaged boroughs also have to make MASSIVE cuts: all between ?35m and ?39m. Wealthier boroughs have to make much smaller cuts, for example, Richmond, only has to make ?1m cuts. I understand that disadvantaged boroughs need, by definition, more government help and therefore there is more to cut. Nevertheless, it seems against all logic and fairness. I simply do not believe there is that much fat in Southwark's budget or that a cut in the Chief Exec's salary will make all the difference. I am really fearful for this borough and the people who live in it.


Anyone agree?

      Any known future improvements to the station? I feel a train to Victoria would help with the service

      How late is your Christmas Card

      By malumbu · Posted

      Post much better this Xmas.  Sue posted about whether they send Xmas cards; how good the post is,  is relevant.  Think I will continue to stay off Instagram!

      How late is your Christmas Card

      By Spartacus · Posted

      These have reduced over the years, are "perfect" lives Round Robins being replaced by "perfect" lives Instagram posts where we see all year round how people portray their perfect lives ?    The point of this thread is that for the last few years, due to issues at the mail offices, we had delays to post over Christmas. Not really been flagged as an issue this year but I am still betting on the odd card, posted well before Christmas, arriving late January.
