There are plenty of properties in the UK to supply homes for all of the population. The problem is one of an unbalanced economy, with unequal distribution of wealth, opportunities and demand and also rampant speculation and profiteering.

The problem is government housing as it subsidises the rental market and creates a false rental market.


Rather than restrict social housing to those in need social housing goes to those who really don't need government help the likes of Bob Crow when he was alive.


Many black cab drivers builders etc etc on ?100k a year living in council housing.


It's not means tested because that would unreasonable so we tax payers fund the rental market.

No.. I don't, but it's replacing a shop I DID shop at.. and many others that had somewhere they could afford to shop at.

That 84-90 vertical sign is disgusting!


The rest is acceptable for the progressive


Luddites' would rather have mud huts hey ho that's progress


Agreed on m&s food it's for lazy people with more money than taste and a lack of food knowledge that's 80% of the local population catered for then

Yeah... seriously that sign is crappy.


Ready meals... it's all about how much/little time you have, and how you choose to spend it. When it's already 8pm by the time the kid's asleep, and you need to get up at 6am the next morning... a limp ready meal and a beer in front of the TV will do me just fine.

I got the impression that the M and S that is coming to LL will not be just one of those rail station types, but one where you can actually buy real ingredients. I can't remember the exact corporate nomenclature but I'm sure there are variants of M and S outlets.

Maybe the expect a lot of customers to arrive by helicopter or light aircraft even then the size is over kill they're probably looking to catch the eye of Timothy Peake.


The really clever thing about those numbers is that standing outside on the pavement they're so big that no one not even the postman would be able to see them, maybe visible on the opposite side of the road?

So those who love the gentrification of East Dulwich would hate the big letters.

Those pictures show an obvious massive improvement over the crappy/ugly old building that was there before. It was a real dump.


I'll probably only shop there once or twice a week, but I'm still delighted there's also a half decent convenience store opening there too.

      Assistance Dogs - Autism: any experiences?

      By JMK · Posted

      https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.

      Missing Cat

      By jeffersjd · Posted

      Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
