Just discovered this old thread. What happens at the Constitutional Club? How does it survive? Who are its members and where do they live? So many questions...


I'm going to speculate that whoever they are, they have an ageing and declining membership (institutions like that often do), and are a time capsule of an old East Dulwich that is fast fading away. Am I right? If so, it can't go on forever, and will have to be reinvented at some point to reflect the change in the surrounding community. It would be a great place for a local independent cinema. Just a thought.

I was a member of the Constitutional club years ago, and then swooped to the Liberal club because it was cheaper for beer. Don't get why people have to get political about it, most of the working class people who use said venue and those similar are just ordinary people wanting a cheap pint. Trust the middle classes to turn it into something political lol.. Just saying..

    • Yes they do, but that is not the core tenet of representative democracy. At that level, we are voting for a parliamentary representative, irregardless of whether parties exist or not. It's why candidates can stand as independents. 
    • Sadly I think you will never convince people like this. They think gardens have to be kept chopped back and controlled. My theory is that this comes from being (or trying to be) controlling in every aspect of their lives, so I doubt if anything you could say or show them would have any effect. But are they actually coming into your garden or leaning over into it and pulling up/damaging things? If so, maybe one of our community police people could have a word with them?
    • Dear Nature lovers - advice please. I am being harassed by a neighbour who doesn't like my standard of gardening which she calls 'messy'. (I have rewilded my garden with advice from the London Wildlife Trust and a gardening expert from The Times.) I have twice caught this neighbour and her husband pulling up my plants and damaging my trees. Plus she has photographed my house, and sent a dozen complaints to the Dulwich Estate about my plan to rewild the verge outside my property - approved by the Estate some 4 years ago in line with their stated policy of supporting biodiversity in and around Dulwich. What can I do to introduce these neighbours  to the benefits to us all of returning a portion of our gardens to nature?
