Just come out of peckham pulse and there was a big crowd on the main road and lots of people running to get away. Apparently they were breaking into ladbrookes. The staff at the pulse were closing up with quite a few people still inside. We thought we'd make a dash for it to avoid being stuck in there. Sad times.

Cycling home past peckham pulse. intending to go down bellenden rd past B.King. Saw smashed bus with a row of riot police by it. People milling round with the odd rock / missile thrown by masked individual - not sure how far rye lane the trouble goes. Groups of people milling around. might need to advise those who are not online etc.

No way.

What are the odds of that?

My husband was just on a bus on the walworth road which got caught with the police on one side of it and looters on the other. The bus kicked everyone off and the looters kindly let the passangers walk back towards elephant. Choose another way home folks, not sure any buses will get down there for a while.

The Dog Kennel Hill Sainsbo's was open a quarter-hour ago -- all shutters rolled down, security personnel tapping batons into their palms outside. Erm, make that two security guards and three blokes in J Sainsbury livery, one walkie-talkie amongst the five.


If you had a tan from your holiday you weren't allowed in. Please discount that statement as well.


However, my housemate, who described the scene there in somewhat **cough** inflammatory terms, says, and this is a TRUE, that from the window of the 68 he saw three separate muggings between Burgess Park and Camberwell Green -- a moped stolen and two bicycles stolen, knocked off whilst riding and scarpered on the stolen goods.

      Fly the flag

      By NewWave · Posted

      As someone who's gradparents on both sides were immigrants, and someone old enough to remember my parents fear and anxiety over Enoch Powell I am deeply distubed by the rise of the far right, anti immigration and general xenophobia I am witnessing in the UK and in the tabloid press. seeing the cross of St George flag makes me shudder...rightly or wrongly I read it as a pro white anti anyone not of pure white christian origins. Within immigrants this country would be sc**wed.  I was born here but sadly I don't feel particularly at home here any longer.

      Starmer was in the news today saying he flies a St. George's flag in his flat in Downing Street.   Make of that what you will. https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/keir-starmer-is-downing-streets-david-brent/ "Whenever Starmer tries to appear normal, he ends up sounding like a mixture of David Brent and the acid bath murderer. As he was asked about the proliferation of flags across the country, there came some absolutely classic examples of the genre. ‘I’m a supporter of flags’, he began. ‘I always sit in front of the Union Jack’, he insisted. Always? I can just imagine a flunky following the PM around – to his local, on trains, as he goes to the lavatory, just to ensure he is always in the presence of a Union Jack. Determined to make things even weirder, Starmer informed Chorley that he had a St George’s Flag up in his flat, as if he was trying to entice him upstairs in order to kill and eat him."
