Listen to the voice of the politically disaffected - interviewed on the BBC world service

Staggering ignorance: "...yeah it's them innit, whoever it is, it's THEIR fault". Unreal. They've trashed and stolen from a shop. And don't know why.

Solid politics there then.

I just did the 343 thing again from Borough up to Cheltenham Rd and all was quiet. Noticeable police presence in both E&C and Peckham.


Having seen a few riots now with looting etc, I'd say it won't kick off in the same places that have already been hit for the simple reason that if it was worth nicking, it would have been nicked already.


Here's a short vid of the action in Camberwell, shot an hour ago: http://www.twitvid.com/6PC5J

The way i see things is thus: i absolutely abhor what is happening in my country. But peckham, brixton and all the other places you could mention have now become a melting pot to place all immigrants. Peckham and brixton have had their problems for years, but it all seemed pretty much sorted until the local councils decided to dump every single nationality on earth on their doorsteps. I in no way condone what has happened, i deplore it. But something major has to happen and now.

Seemed to be the situation when I walked down LL about 5 mins ago too.

Does this theory hold for the various other ghettos which have seen trouble.. such as Bromley, Fulham, Ealing, Chingford, Balham, Merton, Oxford Circus and Chelsea?

    • He did mention it's share of freehold, I’d be very cautious with that. It can turn into a nightmare if relationships with neighbours break down. My brother had a share of freehold in a flat in West Hampstead, and when he needed to sell, the neighbour refused to sign the transfer of the freehold. What followed was over two years of legal battles, spiralling costs and constant stress. He lost several potential buyers, and the whole sale fell through just as he got a job offer in another city. It was a complete disaster. The neighbour was stubborn and uncooperative, doing everything they could to delay the process. It ended in legal deadlock, and there was very little anyone could do without their cooperation. At that point, the TA6 form becomes the least of your worries; it’s the TR1 form that matters. Without the other freeholder’s signature on that, you’re stuck. After seeing what my brother went through, I’d never touch a share of freehold again. When things go wrong, they can go really wrong. If you have a share of freehold, you need a respectful and reasonable relationship with the others involved; otherwise, it can be costly, stressful and exhausting. Sounds like these neighbours can’t be reasoned with. There’s really no coming back from something like this unless they genuinely apologise and replace the trees and plants they ruined. One small consolation is that people who behave like this are usually miserable behind closed doors. If they were truly happy, they’d just get on with their lives instead of trying to make other people’s lives difficult. And the irony is, they’re being incredibly short-sighted. This kind of behaviour almost always backfires.  
    • I had some time with him recently at the local neighbourhood forum and actually was pretty impressed by him, I think he's come a long way.
