Very exciting. And your reason? Happy to contribute towards 1000s of deaths in London each year from the poor air?? The future is electric. As nobody on a bike goes further than about 30 miles nowadays ideal (I've done 500 miles on a bike in a day when I used it as a sole form of transport)

The future is actually pricing unnecessary private transport off the roads with a view to cleaning up the air..... so, people will think twice about driving the short distances where they could use alternate means.


A correlation with improvements in public transport is essential.

Wow, right on. That's a pub conversation (I am a professional tree huger BTW so many of my posts are to provoke discussion).


You can also argue that a near empty bus isn't great for the environment either.

Why? Prey tell. What's your issue? Why didn't you respond to TfL's consultation? Don't you have bigger issues ie the increasingly tougher restrictions on getting a licence in the first place and the cost of insurance? This is a social network/community forum where members talk about issues rather than post one liners. Persuade me. (yes I know I am coming across as pompous).

Not pompous at all Malumbu, imho, to expect posters to engage in a discussion rather than simply repeatedly bumping posts without any topic development.


I think others have made some excellent points, and I'd be very interested in reading further debate. xx

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By jazzer · Posted

      Simply, give us a snap election now as the last 12 months in office honestly have not been great in any sense. Let someone else have a go at turning around UK plc before it's too late. At least the last administration had the inflation and unemployment rates going in the right direction at the END.

      Yes but what's the answer, Jazzer? No government can simply walk in and fix the economy - get the bills down, grow it and reduce debt. There is no silver bullet. The public (and the press) wants everything now, everything cheaper, but with better public services and lower taxes.  In the radio and paper, all you ever hear is pundits, MPs, think tanks and economists saying what won't work, but no one seems to know what will work.  I'm genuinely interested to hear what other views people have on here, and what they think will help, or make things worse.

      While they struggle with economics of UK plc, collectively we all suffer as a result of their ineptitude.

      I’ve tried to find details of surgeries being held before but not found any. The section of the Southwark website that details councillors’ surgeries says that: Your locally elected Councillors will be holding a roving surgery programme in the Dulwich Hill area to enable residents to raise any local issues. Residents will be notified by letter in advance of the date, time and specific streets/roads where the surgery will take place.  Surgeries are not held in August, on Bank Holidays, Easter or in Christmas Week.  Dulwich Hill Ward Councillors I’ve never seen any notification of surgeries being held, including on the DH councillors’ social media accounts. I don’t know if any other residents of Dulwich Hill have? Neighbouring wards all seem to have times and places posted for surgeries.
