what happened today? Helicopter & police around Forest Hill Rd (Lounged)


Recommended Posts

Have a quick gin to steady your nerves DM.


The story is true, but it was a few days ago on the 16th.

An inpatient from a secure psychiatric unit absconded from King's while being treated. Obviously, it's not good news and shouldn't have happened, but I really don't think there's any need to be alarmed. His picture has been published in the national press, if you see him use your common sense and don't approach him, but do call the police.

so thats why theres never enough cops around, the met have spent all their money on flying cars.

I get fed up with the police telling us that the public should not approach

when some maniac gets out and about amongst us. I think they should be advising us

to get stuck into the bleeder if we fancy our chances and if said maniac gets a little banged-up

then so be it.


It's nanny stateism gone mad, I tell you.

I find the "ooohs" and "aaahs" and gasps of horror and fear at this chap's escape hilarious! I mean, does anyone really believe for one moment that, had this chap not escaped, there would be no other violent rapists on the streets of South London????? This reaction reminds me a little of the society in Demolition Man where, until Wesley Snipes turned up, there was no-one in the city who would even curse in public. I don't think that the addition of one more convicted offender to the vast swarm of criminality on out city's streets provides any more reason to lock our doors than we had already.

I was referring, dear Anna, to the "OHMYGOD!" from DM and the "Oh Jesus..." from Madworld. Perhaps I interrupted a prayer meeting but I assumed their comments were in relation to the escaped convict :-)

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls.
