Oh go on Clutterqueen,let them get all their pent up frustrations out.

All so childish, in 4 years you can vote got more things in my life to worry about why people have Todo stupid stuff is beyond me

Agree or disagree with him he's here for 4 years

It's always trial by media these days the only truth in most papers are the date and price

Same when an MP has an affair media decide he's got to be sacked who cares

Most prime minister's would not stick by there judgment of the personas they more concerned about there position

We are not a banana republic

think the boo thing is a bit rubbish - however


"Agree or disagree with him he's here for 4 years"


is categorically not going to happen - in 4 years:


Boris will be long gone

UK on way to being gone

possibly election well before 4 years time as well


"We are not a banana republic"


Then "we" need to stop behaving like one. Action without consequences is what happens in banana republics. Scotland had no problem telling senior people they had to leave when they broke with policy

It may be a silly thing to do but we are in weird times, where for the first time we have a prime minister who lacks integrity, underpinned by someone who lacks humility (and numerous other traits we would expect), as we seem to slide towards an American way of politics where flawed/sociopath character seems to win you popular support.


Having to wait four years adds to the frustration.


Having a big riot in Trafalgar Square, returning to my reference to Class War, was similarly an immature thing to do, but it was one piece of direct action/mass disobedience that did have some impact, albeit pushing at an open door as many Tory MPs did not support the poll tax

I never understood class war so what if people earn big bucks no I don't I grow up in council house left school at 15 but worked my way through life never jealous of big earners waist of energy

As for what he did if I had a child and was in the position to do that I bloody would he put no 9ne in danger and seeing his boss so ill I would have been terrified of what could happen Yes poll tax was unfair but sacking someone for this

Can you imagine the people who did break the rules being sack a friend of mine drove from Kent to Newcastle just to see her son and girlfriend he's a mummy boy she and her husband are high risk fat diabetes and bad chest I told her she's crazy but didn't care

I understand strong feelings so each to there own, there will always be rich and poor most of us in the middle

And Boris father didn't make money until the 80s he got a scholarship for Oxford and lived with his nan in a run down place in Wales

But freedom of speech is good and each to there own

Everything you listed says we ARE a banana republic !!

Yeah fair enough.

When we are ALL asked to limit our movements for a nationally important emergency, if you feel it doesn't apply to you just flick it off and do whatever you want.

Freedom of rights, right ?

    • It’s the impact the festival has on the community, the people living next door to the park who have to endure the thumping music and worse. Then there’s the park and the state it’s left in and the wildlife, especially nesting birds. All the roads going down Denmark Hill towards the park were closed off and roads off half moon lane and going up towards West Norwood closed off with wardens at each end, who were paid by Lambeth Council to stand there for the 4 days.  The festival made the news channels and interviews suggested most of the people attending weren’t fron the local area but places like Ireland and Scotland.  I live a 20 minute walk from the park and could hear the thumping music all day and night. Also the wind certainly carried the smell of drugs to my garden! For 4 days I couldn’t believe how strong it was. 
    • Emirates Stadium is  >60,00 but they tend to be very quiet 🙂 Jokes aside though, it's a case in point. Highbury was <40,000 and was 300M up the road, so there are definitely Islington residents who used to live half a mile from a fairly big football stadium, and now live right by a massive one. One that holds rock/pop concerts too accomodating 70,000 fans whether they like ot or not.   40% of Islington households are in social housing so regardless of when they moved their current homes, they may have had little say in exactly where they are housed.   
    • St Christopher's only take books in perfect condition. 
    • This is where I sit too. A two day event is bearable. Three tests my tolerance. Finding the right balance on size, noise and impact is where I contribute to the consultation process. BUT, as I wrote elsewhere, every year the GALA organisers ask/ push for more, and deals have already been done with the council before it gets to public consultation stage. It is also worth pointing out that when a licence was first granted, the orgnaisation was different (We Are the Fair), one of the company directors lived literally next to the park (she left when it became GALA) and the current form bears no resemblance to original ethos/ vision sold to the council and licensing committee. This needs to be pointed out and I am fairly confident local councillors would also support a pushback on any further expansion. We have local elections next year, so councillors ears will be open.
