Although there is much to be recommended about the prescription drug abuse and the swinging.

Indeed, I love cashing in on others' misery.

I have an entire half-finished ghost estate all for myself where I have imported sorry looking palm trees scattered around so I can reenact the Battle of Beckton Gas Works Hue from Full Metal Jacket every weekend.

It's brilliant!!!

I would miss the variety of people. I get a bit unsettled when everyone has a fleece and wears beige. Together with cotton traders clothes.

When they say "OOOH London that nasty violent city where the riots were"... plus other non pc comments.

Totally agree WOD. When I first moved away from London, I was taken aback at the lack of non white faces, and that was in Liverpool, a big city. I had a girlfriend from near Boro once, and she met her first black person at the age of 21. Where she was from, there was one Chinese family, who run the Chinese take away.


So grateful to have grown up somewhere where I went to school with equal numbers of black, white and Asian kids.

I would miss London a lot... history, culture, live music, restaurants, the melting pot of nationalities and cultures. I even like seeing tourists out and about.


However, I honestly don't think that SE London has an awful lot going for it, there are only a couple of nice enclaves within it (including the Dulwich area).

This could also be Dulwich Village.

lol at the thoroughly predictable prejudice about people who are 'not from here' but the home counties/Bromley etc from a bunch of people who then have the gall to go on about hideous Daily Mail views.


Oh you smug metropolitan hypocrites - many of 'you' fit in a box as easily as 'they' do.

But what if he does have kids?


Look, if it means having a pop at Guardian readers or metropolitan liberals, he can sometimes go a little OTT


So he was standing up for you fine, upstanding (if easily offended, who knew) Mail readers, in his own way


I think he was having a pop at the wrong people tho ? the crew doing the mocking of coutry-dwelling/fashion-deprived/Mail reading types on this thread is limited to the terminally misanthropic likes of woodrot and nowt to do with liberal elites. When it comes to bashing THEM, ???? and woodrot would happily man the barricades together I suspect


So, jelly, he isn?t comparing you or any Mail readers to paedophiles. He is ?claiming? that some people on here appear to despise mail readers as much as paedophiles. Which is the sort of odd claim he makes from time to time


I normally leave him to it these days, but felt a need to stick up for him a little bit here as you have the slightly wrong end of the stick. (that often happens with Ma? erm, ok not now. But it does. Especially when paedophiles are mentioned)

Jelly you're obviously pretty new to the forum. Quids was, in a roundabout way, defending you!!! Guardian readers tend to look down on Mail readers....the folk on this forum are mainly Guardian readers. You'll get there in the end.

    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • 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.
