Why do you say that.. ?

Havn't seen / heard any uproar about the Beer Shop on East Dulwich Road 'Hop Burns & Black'

Seriously? I mean really seriously? It's called white stuff as it began as an apres-ski wear firm, started by two British lads working in Val D'Isere calling themselves "Boys from the White Stuff." Pretty sure if someone wanted to set up a shop selling, say, Goth clothing and called it "Black Stuff" nobody would give, ahem, a stuff. Your post took me back to the '80s when the Sun used to peddle rubbish about black coffee being banned in County Hall!

    • Signed, and I will share it elsewhere, thank you for posting this.
    • There’s a couple of Gov petitions going on in relation to fireworks at the moment but this one is for banning them entirely except organised displays if anyone wants to sign. This is the only sensible way forward in my view. No one should be able to let them off in gardens or anywhere like that, it’s crazy. I am surprised some of you have said it hasn’t been as bad this year. I live near DKH Saino and it’s been absolutely terrible my way for days. This petition gained about 20,000 just in the last day or so so clearly the appetite is there! https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/732559
    • I'd have thought they could use some of  their income from hiring out a large part of Brockwell Park in the summer (therefore, as I understand it, preventing local residents from using much of it) to put on a firework display there  in the autumn which might somewhat make up to those residents for the previous loss of use of the park. And also generate goodwill.
    • Clicking on your name, I see you've made seven posts on here since you joined  around four years ago, and they've all been about local libraries. And none of the posts are  very pleasant. Care to share with the rest of us where  your particular interest in libraries comes from? Do you work in one of them?
