That'll be one of those pesky kids with their chalk again......;-)


Nice clear shots though....I wonder if anyone knows him....... I presume he was going down the road doing this to all the houses and then leaving the signs on the cars outside the house?


It's beyond pathetic - just as damaging the planters is. The idiots on both sides really need to grow up.

The interesting thing is that this guy wasnt obviously drunk and he did look up at the cameras several times!


Someone surely can recognise him. If so please send a PM and we will let the police know. Result was dents and scratches in the roof and bonnet. The signage is neither here or there but we just cannot have people like this damaging cars. There's enough vandalism to cars already without this type of behaviour.


Please assist.

Nice presumption again Rockets.


I think that the answer was 'no' that's not what happened. This is old footage and seems to be the only place its happened despite there being other signs on that stretch of road.


Odd behavior yes, part of a wider pattern and happening to all houses displaying signs - no.


The only other place I'd heard of was on Croxted after one of the England matches, but given people had been in the pub watching the football its hard to work out if its normal levels of post football euphoria vandalism or something more targeted.

Northern - a number of people reported the same thing happening to their signs across the Dulwich area - so this one, that was captured on camera, was not an isolated incident. It's not beyond the realm of possibility to suggest that it is this person who has been targeting other houses because this is clearly not a random act of vandalism - this is very much targeted - look at the effort he goes to to remove the sign. I am sure you'll agree that if he has caused damaged to any properties or cars he should be held to account for that - he is pretty recognisable.


He is clearly an idiot as so many people have cameras and Ring doorbells nowadays he was always going to be caught on one of them. As I have said before the idiots on both sides need to stop doing this type of thing and, if caught, should be held to account as it does neither side any good and is just childish in the extreme.

Yes - its easy to say that this is totally unacceptable - it is.


However,



"I presume he was going down the road doing this to all the houses and then leaving the signs on the cars outside the house?"


Well no - there were loads of signs on that road and seemingly only this one removed and put (again weirdly) on their car. Its not a house with a drive and the parking outside is full. Though it was the only SUV so maybe it was an unlucky coincidence for them).

Millionaires?? You must be joking.


The great majority of houses on EDG are sub-divided into flats and you won't find many millionaires there.


Not sure what you mean by tatty. There are 2 or 3 which have been interfered with and may not be vertical but they still get the message across. They must be effective if plonkers like this want to remove them.

Not too many, thankfully and what damage they have done has been rectified.


What is more concerning are the "useful idiots" who get manipulated by our elected office holders.






Some community spirited person must know him

Rocks, you are not paying attention. Using terms such as idiots does not help your cause and you lose the moral high ground. I did give you and others some pretty good advice on the LTN thread, do pay attention.


[that is not saying whatever is going on is right, just if you are arguing any point it doesn't help to start throwing names around]

Malumbu - I think everyone can agree that if people are pulling down signs they don't agree with or vandalising planters they don't agree with then we can safely categorise them as idiots. They are the very definition of them. Or maybe pathetic deluded idiots if they think it is going to have any impact on the long term outcome or somehow make people change their views on the LTNs either way.

Spot on Rockets! It just makes the anti-LTNers more motivated and more determined.

    • We don’t even need Victorian values. Many of theses monstrosities are made by Japanese companies but would never be sold in Japan because in Japan the dimensions of cars are strictly regulated due to their narrow street layout. I grew up in terraced streets in the 1970s, playing football and even cricket among the then relatively few parked cars. To walk through ED and see every square inch of every street taken up by a parked car and not a child playing is like a Silent Spring.
    • Word to the wise: please be careful if you’re around Dulwich Village during the school run.  While walking on the pavement down Carlton Avenue this morning c. 8.45am, I was hit from behind by a child riding a bicycle. When I raised this with his father, he (the father) behaved inappropriately. I highlight the following tactics deployed against me, so if you choose to say anything, you may come off better in any exchange than I. The father chose to make it more about how I reacted, rather than what had happened, namely that his son was riding on a pavement, seemingly without supervision, out of his father’s line of sight. The father claimed I was over-reacting, said that his son was 4-years old and didn’t do it deliberately. He didn’t ask me if I was alright. And apologised with a ‘but’: “I’m sorry if he hit your leg, but your reaction is over the top.”  He took no responsibility for his child’s action or his lack of parental supervision. As I walked away, I heard him and two other adults talking and laughing about my reaction – yes, laughing.  I don’t think he or his son learned anything useful from the incident about keeping themselves and others safe, such that it would change their behaviour. I did and share it here as to place, time, nature of incident, minimising tactics etc. as a heads-up to others. I didn’t sustain any injuries or damage to my clothing or property. Others who are older/younger, have mobility issues, walk with buggies, children, pets etc. may fare differently. Forewarned is forearmed, guys.
