Does anyone know if there has ever been any plans for a footpath from Homestall Road to Brenchley Gardens? It seems a bit strange there isn?t one as there is one the other end. It certainly would make walking to the Honor Oak Station a lot quickly for a fair number of people. I met someone who lived on Marmora Rd who there was a talk of it a few year ago but that was all she knew.

Hi, not much more to tell. Southwark Living Streets and Southwark cyclists proposed a way through the Camberwell New cemetery to the sports field and then to Honor Oak Station. At the moment I think there is a very solid fence which is a bit incomprehensible.


This would give us all an alternative access to Honor Oak Station since TfL won't give us a bus. Access would be through the cemetery entrance in Brenchley Gardens.


The suggestion went down well but everything is being delayed by the row about digging up the concrete groundsman's area and using it for burials. If you want to be put in touch with Living Streets pm me and I'll pass you on.

Another gift from ssw then - thanks Blanche & Lewis - for ever-benefiting the people of ED and Brockley.

We've also asked that the chained up gate into the cemetery opposite the southern end of Kelvington Road be opened and made a regular access point into the cemetery. It reduces the distance (from the Cheltenham Road area of Nunhead) through the cemetery a little and might persuade a few more people that it's (almost) quicker and certainly nicer to walk through the cemetery from Nunhead to Honor Oak Park Station than get the sardine-tin otherwise known as the P12.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
