Yet another kid got stabbed....well, three to be precise....check out the BBC News site.

I got caught in that traffic last night on my motorbike - it was a right pain in the @rse!


had to go all the way up to Surrey quays to find a route back round to the safety of ED! - the Cops had closed off all the roads....feel sorry for you if you were stuck in a car.


was speaking to a cab driver last night and he was telling me that it was causing problems as far back as cov garden!

I just can't get my head around how a 15/16 year old could just happily take the life of another kid.


One of the worst ones I heard was a year or so ago when an asian kid was literally beaten and kicked to death in the middle of the afternoon in a subway tunnel of a shopping centre (not Elephant & Castle). The most shocking thing was that there were about 40-50 teenagers all there recording it on their phones and stuff, and no one did anything to try and stop it!


Remember his parents saying they'd just moved to the area because they thought it would be a nice safe place for him.

    • I really have to smile as I was the one, years ago who posted about what Gala was.. had not a clue, but drove and drive regularly. Felt such a fool at the time but wow, years later post still comes up.. with comments. Still don’t understand why a lot of park is cordoned off and glad not a resident overlooking park.. must be so noisy but now dates have been kindly supplied, those that don’t want to chill and listen to music in their flats/houses can up sticks and explore UK or abroad. Totally understand that in a built up area and millions in London, music events take place all over the capital to allow access to all.  Brockwell  Park, Dulwich Park, don’t hear anything going on in or around Telegraph Hill or indeed Horniman Gardens.. Crystal Palace I believe do their own thing.  Do these events , clearly charge, provide their own insurance, public liability, crowd control, first aiders, security and policing? Rubbish clearance etc  
    • Personally I think the second weekend has always been a tactical ploy with no real intention of going ahead with it. The council then turn it down (saying they have listened to us, which of course they haven’t) and announce that they will only license one weekend. GALA get the result that they want - job done. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if the council even suggested this ploy, they are so desperate to keep the event.
    • Hello Tori, which of the three incumbent Labour Councillors are you hoping to replace?
    • I just checked the Southwark Council website and it stated:   All responses to the consultation will be recorded and a ‘consultation findings’ report will be published once feedback has been reviewed. The review process involves collating feedback from a number of council teams and external agencies - the aim will be to publish the report as soon as possible after the consultation has closed and no later than the 31 January 2026. The report will be published on this site. The use of bold type on the date is the Council's, not mine. They are late. I wonder why?
