Trouble in peckham?


gk

Recommended Posts

Anyone else suspect that rather than a great uprising of the underclass, a load of kids went mental last night, because it seemed very exciting, and they got carried away with mob mentality.


Today they are lying low, and basically that will be that.

That is a crazy response!!! Of course everyone feels dreadful for people who have lost their homes and businesses but you have to get a grip and keep positive. I was with mrs F and it was indeed a pleasant walk, how is that a joke!?? Is everyone supposed to just give up, be miserable and scared in their houses? Or cry at the smashed windows of the Palmerston. I think it is clear from the number of views on this thread how much we all love our community and our businesses. who is suggesting it's a joke?!

Peckham very quiet, sad about the clothes shop that was burnt down and not overly bothered by Tesco. Low profile policing and had a chat with some of the officers. Impressed by the tribute outside Poundland. Hopefully that will be it. Think despite how bad it has all been some over-reporting and also the rumour mill hasn't helped.

I am aware of that, there were some older criminals, and they probably started the looting, and I suspect the kids then followed suit, and carried it on.


The older ones either got arrested, or have been smart enough to stay quiet, whilst the kids run riot on some mental rampage.

Yep I agree with that elizabethg, its been reassuring to read of people carrying on as usual. I think the police and emergency services have been fantastic. Have also talked to so many people at bus stops, shops and on the street (more than ever). Everyone trying to support each other where they can.


The forum has been supremely helpful, really appreciate the resource.

OK then... Killzone 3? (actually that's what I'm playing at the moment, but I didn't nick it, honest...)

That boy is a regular at the Goose Green playground.


I only recognise his face, as I've noticed he's always up at the playground not to play (too old/cool for that), but just hanging about, pushing the other (smaller) kids in his little posse about.

He'll be found, his is one of the main pictures the press is using. I had a run in with him once outside Tescos too. He tried to throw something at my bike.

    • The end of a decade and a half of gaslighting, they must be exhausted. Oh boy, are we going to hear some coercive BS in the next 6 weeks. For some reason they don’t seem to be boasting about how well we are doing in education, crime and policing, fishing, agriculture, health, prisons, trade, trade agreements, immigration, transportation, utilities (including water), amongst other things. They seem to be focussing on exporting individual ‘illegal’ immigrants to Africa for more than it costs to take a journey into space. And rainbow-coloured lanyards for use within the civil service. I wonder why?🤔    
    • If you have a campervan (windows all round, seats in) they’re treated just like cars - come unannounced as often as you need. So I think it’s a way to avoid commercial interests’ abuse of the service. Imagine if you provided a local clearance service, you could empty peoples gardens and houses and take it straight to the dump and have nothing to pay. 
    • Gutted to miss out on the title in the end and fall down to fourth at the last! Thanks for running it - took me a while to get to grips with the format but came on strong in final few months. Look forward to next season!   JamesM
    • If you can access Facebook, there are many groups on there for different things. it may be helpful searching for groups on there. i joined a few groups on there myself which helped me with my health issues. it was these groups that made me realise I wasn’t the only one suffering with side effects & some women were worse off than me. hope that helps
