Since most of the allegations made are first hand, they are not hearsay. It's not a kangaroo court either, because no one is suggesting any sanctions.


And if the allegations are true, they are not defamatory.


If they're untrue, she has an open and shut legal case - particularly serious because her professional competence has been criticised, potentially affecting her livelihood - which she should be able to bring on a no win no fee basis.


The fact that she has not been named, and her critics do not give their full names, is no bar to a case because she is identifiable to some people. And clearly she will easily be able to identify her accuser/s.


Given that she can straightforwardly access legal redress, and that the forum welcomes praise for good traders, it seems only fair that justified criticism should be welcomed too.


Prolific poster DJKillaQueen could always make a post in response of course that makes her perspective clear.

Nicholas, my point wasn't about whether any of the allegations made are true or untrue. And of course, prolific posters, you'd expect to be on here defending or denying their case.


But it seems to me that this thread was started, not in the Lounge, as a well-meaning attempt to establish contact with a missing contractor by a client. It seems to me that its looking unlikely that the contractor is going to respond (of course, I could be wrong) and it now appears that the thread has taken a different turn entirely which I don't think is helping achieve the initial intention.


It somehow seems wrong to continue discussing someone so personally in this manner in the Lounge (to me anyway).

If a tradesperson has done a bad job, then I don't see the problem with posting about the experience on here. Even if the tradesperson in question is a known forum member... it makes it all rather uncomfortable, but no less "wrong" than - for instance - the saga with the cat-flap guy.


In fact I don't think anybody has even mentioned her real name (or company/trading name), so I really don't see why some of you seem so concerned.

      How oversubscribed are the local schools? Will they be able to take on students who are currently privately-educated?

      By lollol · Posted

      Southwark and Lambeth may have some spaces but this is not the case of other London boroughs nearby particularly at secondary level. Also this is not just a London issue. There are many regions throughout the UK that have no school places available (eg Kent due to new housing developments, rural areas, Surrey, Guildford, Edinburgh etc). Just because you feel it doesn’t affect you, does not mean it’s right.  You also need to consider the proportion of foreign students in many of the private schools in the area which distorts the impression that local people can pay private school fees and suck up an additional £4-5k per child and per year. And sadly, the psychological and emotional impact on children is not even being discussed.

      Education not taxation - please consider signing this petition!

      By lollol · Posted

      Step in a child’s shoes just for one moment and think what it would be like to have to move schools in the middle of the year away from your friends, teachers, community etc. due to a political stunt. I doubt the money will even go into education. The UK will be become the only European country to tax education. Primary schools have some capacity where I live but I have enquired and there are currently no places for secondary school where I live. Again, so easy to be smug and say we should have pre planned a potential outcome 5 years ago when you live in your £2-3m homes next to the best state schools in Dulwich (like Keir Starmer!)

      Birth rate collapses sounds a bit like Armageddon.  It's a mixture of a decline following a bulge, where many schools had to increase intake, and families moving out of the capital due to high cost of housing.  Now that is an irony, that only wealthy families, many who can afford private schooling, can afford to live in many parts of London.
