Your regular reminder that it wasn?t ?the vast majority of residents? but the vast majority of respondents. Two very different things, yet some struggle to tell the difference.

Good idea - unfortunately it?s got the stage where no matter what a councillor says some will twist it and interpret it in a way to suit their agenda. Cllr Leeming was helpfully informing people of the Thames Water works, he?s right it probably will be quicker to walk or cycle if you can possibly avoid driving. That?s true of most travel in London.

It's easy to spot a pro LTN person on EDF.

To be fair I think a lot of people take offence to his tone and his, sometimes, pointed and demeaning tweets.


I am not sure what value adding the comment below brings to his thread, other than trying to have a dig:


Remember, this is the responsibility of Thames Water not the council


Either that or he is really worried about losing his seat and feels the need to spell it out to people! Pretty sure most people realize the water main has nothing to do with the council!

These threads can get abit personal at times??

Every now & again I take a peak but can?t be asked comment 🤨


London is a city for gods sake??. You will never get country roads/lanes down here!

All these LTN?s are helping nobody other than the councils/government fill their pockets!

If you mistakenly think for a second the government care about you, then I suggest you think again!


LTN supporters can support them all day long, all these past, present & future charges they are talking about are affecting the consumer?? the bottom line is everything is about clawing money from us for whatever they wish to use it for, we will always be worse off no matter how climate friendly you are!


Yes I know my post isn?t about the south circular, I?m sorry, but I just wanted to say something

Btw, I?m a driver & drive for a living but do not own a car simply because I don?t need one.

Interesting that you identified someone as pro-LDN because they had their facts straight. 🤔

    • Great shout. They do need the extra fat when it’s winter, but don’t use fat balls from April as they are dangerous for nestlings as the babies can choke on lumps of the fat. When it gets milder switch to suet pellets as they are harder and don’t melt (the grease is bad for feathers.    
    • Rather alarmist. There is unlikely to be snow this week, but even if there is that is natural and wildlife adjust accordingly. There are fewer insects to eat due to what humans have done to the planet over the decades.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decline_in_insect_populations  In particular: Habitat Loss and Fragmentation: Agricultural Chemicals: Climate Change: Pollution: Invasive Species: There is even a case for not feeding birds due to the spread of disease through feeders, greenfinch population was decimated.   https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/jan/24/should-we-stop-feeding-birds-what-happens-if-we-do-and-does-it-spread-disease   I do feed the birds but keeping a watching eye on the evidence.   And I try to grow insect and bird friendly plants including attempts at a meadow.   There could also be an argument for not keeping cats as these may decimate bird populations.   https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/aug/14/cats-kill-birds-wildlife-keep-indoors   You will need squirrel proof feeders and even then you may have the starlings and green squwaky things eating most of the food left out for small birds.  
    • Apparently this year due to the weather there are fewer insects for the birds to eat. So please if you don’t usually buy fat balls & seeds to put out (in safe places to avoid the cats ) a plentiful supply . They really need it this year, especially with snow forecast later this week.    Thankyou 
    • I hope she and the rider of the bike are ok. I feel its understandable that locals may be concerned when they see a road taped off and police presence.
