Hard on the heels of attempt to kill Lordship Lane with CPZ comes next assault on local businesses. Consultation on proposed levy on licensed premises open after midnight has been announced.

Why not close all businesses down and create a giant cycle park and use empty shops for drop in consultation surgeries.

With all the serious local and international issues, and the Labour Party mired in hatred and antisemitism, only Southwark could become a one issue party completely dominated by the People?s front for Cycling.

Are you mad? They'd take up valuable carparking spaces or stop elderly people getting down the pavement or (fill in generic reason why bicycling is second only to smallpox as a threat to health and happiness).

Chick did you not notice the 8 Labour party MPs resigning from the party last week?


Back on topic, this consultation is for a borough wide tax on all businesses selling alcohol after 12am. 70% of the funds raised will go to the Met who can then spend it as they see fit pretty much anywhere within the M25

To be honest the OP derailed their own thread right from the start - only one sentence is about the actual topic, the rest is moaning about Labour and cycling, which is presumably why Admin lounged it a soon as it was posted.

I do apologise; not quite sure what came over me there. I must be suffering from lack of car exhaust fumes or something :) you are clearly right, down with all this health and happiness stuff and nonsense!

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
