Nero yes the businesses are trying to restrict giving out bags,that is why we ask, do you need a bag?We are looking at biodegradable bags at the moment for the traders on Lordship lane and surrounding Dulwich,East Dulwich shops.

All council tax paying households in East Dulwich,college ward and dulwich village will be entitled to 2 bags per household.

However because some parts of college ward and Dulwich village do cover a large area we can only provide so many households.

great news that the community council is able to back this campaign. just the kind of thing they were created for.


there was a piece about this in the South London Press on Friday


there's no on-line version but you can see a very similar photo of Monica and Marilyn (and me, sorry!) here

I heard Monica, Marilyn and Richard on BBC London Live this morning - well done guys!


It must be really hard to try and change some people's attitude (what about that guy interviewed who said life in London was stressful enough without having bags and this could be the straw that breaks the camel's back!??)


It could be argued (and people have) that there are bigger issues in the world, even in the recycling world*, but you have to take one step at a time and this is a great move which will get people thinking about their habits


*(I wonder if at the miracle of water into wine, people at the wedding said to Jesus, "yeah that's all very well Anglo-Saxon dude but it doesn't solve world hunger does it?")

Thank you sean.BBC radio london picked up the story from the south london press.

Its great Eastdulwich snub are given the chance to show london we can help reduce our carbon foot print.

The guy was right about enough stresses without remembering yo bring a bag,however we know the most important message is that shop keepers independant and chains should always ask " do you need a bag"

    • Maybe if you indicated what you were reviewing, pub, gastro pub, high-end gourmet, local Italian etc. - whatever classifications you wanted, then you need only indicate that your stars referred to overall quality in that category. So it it's pub grub then 5 stars means it's great pub grub, but not the same experience as 5 stars in a high end gourmet category. Your star system could then include implicitly value for money as well. 
    • Does OP know they can sell everything but alcohol even without a license?😄
    • Thanks, it's a real dilemma whether to do star ratings. A few people have asked me to do them but I've tried to resist as they are too reductive - people will look at them and won't read review! and they are difficult too - my last review of Victoria Inn, i'd give it five stars for value for money - how can you knock two courses for £18? – but 2 stars for quality - edible but nothing special. Which I guess is why some sites give star ratings for different things...
    • ok - Jeremy himself is against mandatory vaccines. Is he as extreme as his brother? No? Is it fair to discuss how the overall view of that family would inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic? I would argue very much so
