Ha ha. I suspect that John's irrational behaviour stems from the (somewhat Yorkshire) conviction that 'art' is 'rubbish'.


I don't see why he should see the books. It's none of his business. Who appointed him to be social auditor?


John, mate, if you truly think that an empty parking lot is preferable to hundreds of people having a good time, then 'curmudgeon' is an inadequate word. Get thee back to your dusty shelves ;-)

Curmudgeon is right! It's wonderful to see people being imaginative and creative, and enriching our community - Bold Tendencies has been a revelation.

That's funny, because I fail to see how spinning shopping trolley handles is art. Energy? Place was dead when I went there to see what this middle class invasion was all about. Community? Now you are really taking the mick. In your efforts to promote "community", you managed to alienate everyone local - not just with your patronising art gallery but with the thumping "music" you decided to impose on people living in the area. I came close to calling the police on one of the nights. You have no connection to the community here, you're just a bunch of middle class twats wanting to look all modern by going to the sort of area mummy and daddy warned you about.


The local community doesn't want you here, take your art somewhere else.

    • I think it's a good idea and follows the example of other towns/areas. As it says in the article, the area around the main tourist attractions in Southwark, that is The Globe, Southwark Cathedral, Tate Modern and the whole walking route from London Bridge to Blackfriars, takes a lot of maintaining and it shouldn't be a burden on regular council tax payers like us.
