I'd just like to say a big thank you to the 100+ "yoofs" that made their way down Forest Hill Road towards Peckham Rye from The Rose (Forest Hill Tavern)between 2:45am and 3:15am this morning. There was no shouting, screaming or swearing from these well lubricated revellers. There were no car doors banging shut and no car horns going off and I wasn't woken from a deep sleep.


And of course a big thank you to The Rose itself for ensuring their clientele conducted themselves properly on leaving the premises. Oh, by the way - can anyone tell me when the pub secured a late licence till 3am on a Friday?


This isn't the first time there's been a bit of noise in the street at kicking-out time, but previously this was around midnight, not in the wee small hours. Never happened when it was the FHT......



No, of course it didn't


the world is going to hell in a hand cart etc etc


Not that I don't have some sympathy with late noise etc but unless it's a regular occurrence at the Rose, writing it off as a one-off seems like a better bet than saying "it never happened before"

I certainly can't recollect the FHT being open into the small hours, so probably factually correct saying it hasn't happened before.


Let's hope it is a one-off, as being woken at 2.45 with 30 minutes of shouting and screaming outside your front door isn't much fun. Thanks for the sympathy.


I've just checked the news and can report that the world went to hell in a hand cart some time ago.....

Thanks Rosie, I've just checked the posts from 2008. Apologies to Mr Strafer. I can obviously only comment from my experience since moving here towards the end of 2009. I didn't think the FHT had a licence after 12 midnight, although it looks like they did have a licence until 5am, which seems a bit absurd. I've tried to check the council website for current licence arrangements but the site seems to be down right now.


ibilly99 obviously witnessed last nights events, as he's taken a photo.

Someone has hung themselves...must have found out Waitrose aren't opening a store in ED

Hello All,


On behalf of the ROSE I would like to apologise if anyone was disturbed last night while people left the pub-it was a one-off birthday party-and although people were told to leave quietly it is sometimes not always followed through.


The pub does carry a license 24hour license 7 days a week on entertainment and alcohol- and I will stress that though this is the case it is only ever rare occasions that the ROSE remains open beyond usual pub hours.


The ROSE

you live near a pub, you knew it was there, snd this is what you have to put up with now and again. I don't live near a pub, just like i don;t live on a main road. I made these choices and you have too.


So today go to the Rose and talk to them. Don't suppose you will, too much effort!

Most people bought their homes many years ago when pubs shut at 11.00. 10.30 on Sunday


They should not have to put up with it..


Fox.

Ok report the incident to police. The pub will then have a mark against it which will be considered next time they go before the licensing panel.


Not reporting it or telling the pub owners will change nothing. Take action to stop it, don't just whine about it here

Having just moved across from Goodrich road I was a little surprised to see that The Rose had such a late licence, but fair play to them for apologising. Thanks!!! Hopefully this won't be a weekly event, however there seemed to be more customers outside the pub than actually in it, so not sure how they can control this anyway...

    • Direct link to joint statement : https://thehaguegroup.org/meetings-bogota-en/?link_id=2&can_id=2d0a0048aad3d4915e3e761ac87ffe47&source=email-pi-briefing-no-26-the-bogota-breakthrough&email_referrer=email_2819587&email_subject=pi-briefing-no-26-the-bogot_-breakthrough&&   No. 26 | The Bogotá Breakthrough “The era of impunity is over.” That was the message from Bogotá, Colombia, where governments from across the Global South and beyond took the most ambitious coordinated action since Israel’s genocidal assault on Gaza began 21 months ago. 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.
