I was disgusted to find attached to the back (mirrored) wall of the lift in my block a badly hand-written notice proclaiming the expulsion of blacks and Irish from our country.

If the English Defence (defense) League (E.D.L.) wish to do anything with regard to their title they ought to sign up for regular military service and do as their title suggests and defend England rather than ostracise specific denominations for any reason.

Also, if anyone knows of the whereabouts of this message (it was removed within 25 minutes of my discovery) would they please contact the Estates Office, Southwark Housing at [email protected]

May be it is. Why didn't you just remove the note and tear it up and put it in the bin? Why post a photo of it on the internet nearly a week later? Why are you now trying to find the original note when you could have handed it to Southwark estate or the police yourself?

silverfox..... I wanted other residents to see the note.... I'm disappointed.

I went to the local shop ann on my return some 25 minutes later the note was gone!

As for the length of time, I couldn't do anything about the late posting as my account had lapsed due to inactivity therefore I couldn't post, added to that I have been unable to sit at my computer due to back problems.

A community police officer came to my address in order to see if anything could be done and suggested that it would have been a good idea to have the notice on order to do a forensic examination.

I'm only doing what I feel is necessary. I'm saddened by what's happened and will stress that the likes of my own father went to war against Nazi Germany in order to stamp out this sort of thing and it seems unfortunate that the enemy is within.

I will not remove this post.

Exactly my point.... I have been through the appropriate channels and I can see your point but it's like people complaining about specific content on the goggle-box, you have every right to change the channel!

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
