ANOTHER self-censored message Flocky?!? What?s going on? The first one was that you?d reported us to the police for no good reason. This one can?t have been any worse than that?!

i may have a beef with the project but my post was in response to a now (totally removed) post that adds nothing to your thread and a poster i have a family sized side sirlion with. i can be petty and unyeilding but not wholly motivated by a desire to create a environment resembling Grozny c. 1995 within this thread

I posted a message in support of eastDAG and in support of the East Dulwich Mural. I don?t understand why my message was deleted, but am pleased the response to my message by the above anonymous troll was deleted.


Anyway, to reiterate (but in fewer words this time) - great work eastDAG, and ignore the naysayers.

Hi Chris

I saw your message earlier and logged on to say thanks, but I?m not sure why it?s been deleted either?

But thanks for the props. Your FH mural campaign was our benchmark for our campaign.

Thank you so much for taking part in the vote to choose an artist to paint a mural on the bridge outside East Dulwich Train Station.


Along with an esteemed judging panel we had a fantastic response from the East Dulwich community with just shy of 1,000 votes cast. The votes are now in and we are delighted to announce that the winner of the East Dulwich Station Mural competition is Blue Shop Cottage / Alphabetics Anonymous.


We will be meeting Blue Shop Cottage to discuss their ideas and will present these as soon as we possibly can. Once the final design is approved, we will be crowdfunding to cover the preparation and protection of the mural.


Thanks again for your your input! It has been much appreciated. We will be sure to keep you updated as the project moves forward.

That walrus is brilliant! Thanks for posting.

"Once the final design is approved, we will be crowdfunding to cover the preparation and protection of the mural."


You mean you went through all this and asked people to spend their time voting when you don;'t even have any money to finance this project?!

Abe. With the Forest Hill Mural, SE23.life organised the design vote first, and then raised the money. People need to know what they?re paying for.


The strategy worked. Our crowdfunder raised ?2,500+ in 75 hours. Get the right design (via a popular vote) and people will pay for it to happen.


Hopefully this message won?t be mysteriously deleted like my previous few were.

Hi Abe


The mural fee paid to the artist is covered within our budget.

If you read the post, the crowdfunding element is for preparation and protection. It?s an opportunity to pitch in, and be named, on a great project to help it last for many years to come.

Murals are defaced and damaged, so this element will run well beyond our funding period.

The mural project will go ahead regardless.

Hope that clarifies your query

EASTDAG

Seriously, I hope not. I?m keeping my fingers crossed he?s been incarcerated or something similar.

Convened by The Hague Group and co-chaired by the governments of Colombia and South Africa, the Emergency Conference on Palestine brought together 30 states for two days of intensive deliberation — and emerged with a concrete, coordinated six-point plan to restrain Israel’s war machine and uphold international law. States took up the call from their host, Colombian President and Progressive International Council Member Gustavo Petro, who had urged them to be “protagonists together.” Twelve governments signed onto the measures immediately. The rest now have a deadline: 20 September 2025, on the eve of the United Nations General Assembly. The unprecedented six measures commit states to:     Prevent military and dual use exports to Israel.     Refuse Israeli weapons transfers at their ports.     Prevent vessels carrying weapons to Israel under their national flags.     Review all public contracts to prevent public institutions and funds from supporting Israel’s illegal occupation.     Pursue justice for international crimes.     Support universal jurisdiction to hold perpetrators accountable. “We came to Bogotá to make history — and we did,” said Colombian President Gustavo Petro. “Together, we have begun the work of ending the era of impunity. These measures show that we will no longer allow international law to be treated as optional, or Palestinian life as disposable.” The measures are not symbolic. They are grounded in binding obligations under international law — including the International Court of Justice’s July 2024 advisory opinion declaring Israel’s occupation unlawful, and September 2024’s UN General Assembly Resolution ES-10/24, which gave states a 12-month deadline to act. UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied Palestinian territory Francesca Albanese called them “a momentous step forward.” “The Hague Group was born to advance international law in an era of impunity,” said South Africa’s Foreign Minister, Ronald Lamola. “The measures adopted in Bogotá show that we are serious — and that coordinated state action is possible.” The response from Washington was swift — and revealing. In a threatening statement to journalists, a US State Department spokesperson accused The Hague Group of “seeking to isolate Israel” and warned that the US would “aggressively defend our interests, our military, and our allies, including Israel, from such coordinated legal and diplomatic” actions. But instead of deterring action, the threats have only clarified the stakes. In Bogotá, states did not flinch. They acted — and they invite the world to join them. The deadline for further states to take up the measures is now two months away. And with it, the pressure is mounting for governments across the world — from Brazil to Ireland, Chile to Spain — to match words with action. As Albanese said, “the clock is now ticking for states — from Europe to the Arab world and beyond — to join them.” This is not a moment to observe. It is a moment to act. Share the Joint Statement from Bogotá and popularise the six measures. Write to your elected representative and your government and demand they sign on before 20 September. History was made in Bogotá. Now, it’s up to all of us to ensure it becomes reality, that Palestinian life is not disposable and international law is not optional. The era of impunity is coming to an end. Palestine is not alone. In solidarity, The Progressive International Secretariat  
    • Most countries charge for entry to museums and galleries, often a different rate for locals (tax payers) and foreign nationals. The National Gallery could do this, also places like the Museums in South Kensington, the British Library and other tax-funded institutions. Many cities abroad add a tourist tax to hotel bills. It means tourists help pay for public services.
