Life in Southwark post covid - consultation by Southwark Council

[AylwardS]

The council sent an email asking me to complete a consultation on how Southwark should look after Covid as I?d completed an earlier consultation and said I could be contacted.

The consultation is called ?Let?s talk about life after Covid? and closes on 15 August.

There are various questions and you are asked to choose the top 3 or 5 of importance to you. If there is something important to you that is not an option there is an ?Other? category.

I would not bother as Southwark is run by Labour concillors anyway who put in lots of closed roads, environmental issues but don't follow them through. They've also got loads of flats and houses lying empty but play on the legal issues scenario which goes against their plans for the homeless etc.

If you don't fill in the consultation then the council can go ahead with their plans that have probably been put together by someone who doesn't know the area. If you have a better suggestion fill in the consultation and let them know.

Though I would say the Council do listen

- we lived in the area and filled in four consultations before the Zone Q CPZ was put in and we'd said no previously but the parking had got worse in that time

- there have been various planning applications for the dulwich Hamlet football ground area. They've been rejected or amended to take into account objections. Ok the decision isn't a rejection but the final plans approved were better than the original proposal.
