The world will do nothing about China and it?s domination of Hong Kong.

Reason?

1.China is the worlds most powerful country and will do what it wants.

2.the other countries don?t really care.

I'm appalled by Boris and his chums, but I do think it would be a shame to hear the negative, aggressive sound of booing after the quite uplifting and positive sounds of clapping at a time when lots of us are feeling stressed already. Might even frighten some people who don't know what its about...

The question is why boo? It seems to be a British way of showing disapproval. So what is wrong with booing, particularly if it is clear who you are booing at (a little late to show disapproval of Dylan for going electric). Not sure why there are so many po faced people on line. Cheer if you wish.


Dylan denying there is a problem, sounds familiar


Here's another clip, this time of young people showing disapproval at a former PM - as featured at the end of a documentary on protest music by the Great John Peel




Also had the pleasure of being at the Bastille Day celebrations at the French Embassy when the then Foreign Secretary got boo'd by a very exclusive audience shortly after the referendum, during his mummbly speech

    • I would suggest that anyone accidentally driving into the square is not paying due care and attention. If you disagree, I would be interested in what you consider a basic level of competence behind the wheel. Are you a member or a ‘subscriber’? Is there a difference. Does anyone know?  Who is alleging there has been pressure put on the emergency services (not you, you’re just neutrally posting ‘updates’ 😂). It is all very transparent and accountable isn’t it 🤣  
    • Yes, but as I have said before I have nothing to do with their organisation (other than subscribing to their updates which I then post on here). Sorry to disappoint you. I await your answers....
    • Hold on a minute, aren’t you the one posting regular updates from ‘One Dulwich’? 
    • No idea. Ask One Dulwich   No. There are two seperate issues. I believe some cover their plates deliberately (delivery drivers etc) and a number are confused by signage. I spend a lot of time in that area and have only ever seen one car drive through and it was an elderly couple who were incredibly confused (and subsequently very apologetic to an angry cyclist who was calling them all the names under the sun).   Some questions for you to answer now: 1) Which consultation are you referring to? 2) Did you agree with the council's insistence on keeping the junction closed to emergency vehicles despite the emergency services telling them it was delaying response times?   3) At a time of funding crisis do you think £1.5m is a good spend to redesign a junction and those redesigns: - potentially increase emergency vehicle response times - do nothing to stop persistent number plate covering offenders - do nothing to slow cyclists at a pedestrian area
