I'm really interested to. Especially after following the other threads about the white stuff and the like. It sounds like beth knows so much about it. Is this something we could all too easily let us pass by when we really could do something worth while as a community in ED. There is a lot of talk about the changes in ED and if they are for the better or not. Perhaps we should stop procrastinating and do something surley a communtiy lead initative is the most posive thing we could do and stop a slip into LL becoming another once was good and now is full of the normall annomonous high street chains. (I still havent gone into Nero and it saddenes me that only a company with that kind of money can afford the rates, imagin how great that space would be if it was an independant coffee shop. There is obviously a niche, yet all that money is flowing back into a corpate company nothing back into our community.

We could have a real lounge, a real music room ect they are great concepts and dont just have to be virtual.

Any way are there enough people interested at least to properly get together and discuss this or is this going to become a forgotten thread?

I would go along to something and give my time and support around the fundraising and setting up the trust but with a toddler in tow, I don't have the energy to be the leader or co-ordinator to get it together!


It does really need a couple of energentic people with the time and energy to get it going. Also Keef and others, bear in mind that setting up a development trust isn't going to generate money for individuals - all money raised and profit gained will go back into the trust so the board running it would have to be prepared to be volunteers and not make a dime from the project themselves!

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant.
