A rough and ready conversion HTML->PDF (using free CutePDF Writer ... hint, hint) attached which makes it a bit easier to read.


Also attached is the attachment mentioned in it, Empty Commercial Premises Advice. It was 709 kB when received. I've reprinted it and it came down to 157 kB. I trust it's otherwise unchanged.

Good afternoon


Please find below today?s Covid19 briefing note from BCU Commander C/Supt Colin Wingrove. Also attached are 3 documents; the first two relate to advice for business owners and the third is a letter around possible Covid19 scams.


This weekend will see extra officers on patrol across Southwark to engage with the public and enforce the lockdown where appropriate. We will be focusing on parks and open spaces as we?ve had a number of reports of anti-social behaviour and gatherings in these areas. We?re also working closely with the local authority to identify and close any businesses that should not be open.


Thank you for your continued support and be safe.

Good morning


Please find today?s briefing note from BCU Commander C/Supt Colin Wingrove. No briefing note was issued over the weekend.


We have had some messages about police officers being seen not to observe social distancing while on patrol. While police will try their best to observe this, the reality is that the way in which we deploy (in minibuses) and the calls to which we deploy (large groups causing issues; violent incidents) means this is not always possible. I have reminded local teams to observe this where able to but please do not be alarmed if you see groups of police officers together. We will always observe social distancing when talking to members of the public unless we are required to get closer (for example for a search or arrest).



Regards

Dear all, please accept my apologies ? the incorrect briefing note was circulated this morning. I?m also advised the formatting of the earlier email went wrong for some reason!



Please find today?s briefing note below.

Dear all,


Please find attached the most recent COVID19 briefing note from BCU Commander C/Supt Colin Wingrove. I was advised that the last one formatted so it was all underlined. I?ve tried to ensure that doesn?t happen this time ? apologies if it happens again.


Please note that going forward there may not be a briefing note every day. However when there are updates they will be compiled into a briefing note and sent out to you.



Kind regards


Owen

Good afternoon


Please find today?s briefing note from BCU Commander C/Supt Colin Wingrove.


This weekend we have extra deployments across the borough to ensure people comply with the lockdown. They will be paying particular attention to parks and open spaces to ensure no groups gather and people are only out for the essential purposes as directed by the government.


The Met now has an online reporting system for COVID lockdown breaches: https://www.met.police.uk/tua/tell-us-about/c19/tell-us-about-possible-breach-coronavirus-measures/. Please note that the government has not prohibited construction or building work continuing so we will not attend to deal with reports of this as we have no powers.


Lastly I am advised some of the messaging is still coming through underlined ? I don?t know why as it doesn?t show on my end but apparently some of you have received it in this format. I?ve attached a PDF copy which you can refer to if there are any formatting issues.

Police patrolling dulwich Park yesterday, I spoke to them about how they are applying the rules.


In Southwark, police are allowing ONE form of exercise in public places. So if you cycle to the park that's your exercise and you can't then kick a ball around (as I was doing with my son). The officer said this discourages larger gatherings or organised meetings of people who don't live together, as was happening on another football pitch.


The policeman was very polite but they are monitoring activity and will close the parks if people don't comply.

    • It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️
    • Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
