I'd rather live in East Dulwich than define myself by the fact you drive a slightly souped-up Vaushall Vectra salesman's car. Let's face it - the only thing fast about them is how fast their value depreciates. You've probably lost ?200 in the time it took to type this post.


Shouldn't you be living in Chigwell, anyway?

There does seem to be a small handful of people who think ED has become sort sort of Fulham equivalent (Clapham suffers from this problem acutely). These people are deluded - but nonetheless, it's a fairly pleasant corner of town. If you think its dirty, run down and shabby... you should get out and see some more of London!

It was a bit run down, dirty and shabby (albeit with a fair bit of local colour/character) when I lived in ED 25 years ago - paid a visit a few years ago (live in Crystal Palace now) and it was changed beyond belief along Lordship Lane. Went into a deli to buy some balsamic vinegar and had to beat a retreat - how much!? ::o


Dullrich is boring beyond belief though - would almost certainly opt for ED if I had to choose between the two, which happily I don't, living up at the lofty summit :D

Any more arsey little 'antique shabby chic boutiques' like Old Villa with its naff bay trees (So Sloane St. circa 1983) and pricey tat and what character LL still possesses will whither and expire in a whimper of old-english-lavender.

    • Why is the name a big of a red flag? Blighty is a common name for the UK whatever people might think.
    • The only election which counts is the General Election.  There is still strong resentment for fourteen year's of Conservative rule. They squeezed the working class's way to hard, then they squeezed the middle class, but somehow the upper class never got touched, funny that.   There is also new resentment for Labour because of the utter balls up they've made of things since coming to power nine months ago. The majority of the population (or at least those with an ounce of common sense) want these clowns out of office ASAP because they see the damage they are doing to UK plc. They squeezed the pensioners, then the farmers and then business. They made and broke promise after promise, or just didn't tell the truth or say what they where going to do, otherwise known as merely lying to get elected. Inflation may be falling but the cost of things in the shops and utility bills keep on rising, the direct opposite of what they promised. They will never be trusted once they are ousted from power in about four and a half years time.   Everything they do and touch causes further harm, led by three stooges, Rayner, Reeves and balls'less Starmer, who couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. He still thinks he's a solicitor at the DPP. Rather than spending week upon week getting involved in international politics he needs to be sorting out the UK's issues, sadly he's not up to the job and nor are his Cabinet.  Society needs a mix of people with different skills to prosper, not more and more graduates who can't get jobs in what they studied in.   Reform is the current anti establishment party, which will hopefully wither away back to where it came from.  The Liberals and Greens, well what can you say apart from using them as another alternative vote of dissatisfaction, but neither will come to power.  The country seriously needs stability and a Government that stands up for and represents it's people, not what MP's want but what the constituencies want and need.  Government needs to become far more open and transparent, it needs to be seen to be doing its job, doing what MP's are elected to do,  working for the people in the constituencies, getting back to basic principles and rebuilding the trust which has been lost by successive party's immaterial of them being, red, blue, light blue, yellow, green or some other colour.     
    • That’s very insulting! You are basically calling 17 million people that voted to leave the EU ‘thick’.        Brexit happened Sue.  Boring graphs!  Calling Nigel Farage a plastic patriot is also very insulting seeing as he and the Reform Party have had a landslide victory all over England.
