Have seen 185, 40 and 176 buses running up LL so some getting through this direction anyway.

Several mentions of the use of BBM in steering some of the actions. There's a Guardian mention here. Several media callers, lay and journo, have all said the same thing, about broadcast messages, sometimes well in advance of actions.


Jim, calling in to BBC London, who witnessed the break-ins to ED Road Tesco and Costcutter, was of the opinion that they otoh were just a spontaneous spread away from the police presence in Peckham. He also mentioned a lone police car just passing by, probably sensibly as the two officers on board would have been seriously outnumbered.


Some reports generally of attacks on potential witnesses who happened to have cameras or phones ready or in use, so do be aware of this. Remember too, if it does come to it, that a single hair, skin under the nails, fingerprint or DNA on a dropped article, are all potentially identificatory evidence.

Deputy mayor "I just don't want to see the army on the street - i'm sure the police can handle this if they get the space to operate" - doofus! what is wrong with water cannons and tear gas??? these "people" are wrecking our community, London's tourism, the future of the Olympics (and subsequent tourism) and desperate loss of control....

      Council "weed" removal

      By Happyme5 · Posted

      I think you have been very kind towards the the council.  And even kinder in your description of Peckham High Street (LOL). Peckham High Street Rye Lane is awful.  I know it is a very controversial opinion   but I am happy that some parts are going to developed and re built.   The dirty pavements, graffiti shops that put their stock all over pavements and racing cyclists make it not an enjoyable place to be in.  In the old days any business would have to keep their premises in good order.   I am much happier being near a simple bit of over greenery or weed.   It is much cleaner and feels safer to be next to.   Some parts of Peckham are plagued by Zombie like people who have fallen prey to substance abuse.  And I don't see the council putting much effort into helping these poor lost souls.

      Council "weed" removal

      Our refuse collectors leave rubbish all the way down the hill after they have emptied the bins. Everywhere you go you see rubbish everywhere. On some days walking through the high street in Peckham can be truly depressing with plastic bags and paper blowing around everywhere, Peckham and other streets deserve better than this Council complacency. I'm sure it wasn't so bad back in the day. Councils everywhere, faced with cuts in revenue, must have decided a long time ago  that litter picking  and rubbish collection were not so important. I think a clean, tidy environment makes everyone feel better about their home environment. Btw, I'm ok with a few weeds. They are just wild flowers in an inconvenient place.

      Mass Cycle Ride

      Have just enjoyed watching 100s of cyclists go past on Peckham Rye west. Couple of penny farthings, lit up bikes and music too!
