Today at around mid-day me and my husband were walking our dogs behind a housing block in the lordship lane estate (Opposite the vets in dulwich and next to the makeshift "Grove skatepark") where we witnessed a short white male and a taller black male chase two black boys on bicycles with knives and throwing bottles at them. The younger white male was waving a large machete/sword. It was absolutely horrifying and shocking and really traumatised me. I always assumed that the community of east dulwich were some of the kindest people I've lived around and the work in the community is amazing. I would not expect such a shocking thing to happen on the streets of SE22! We did call the police and they came rather quickly and apparently they have a lead to an arrest due to the cameras. Just wondering if any other ED Residents witnessed this.
No, and for that I am extremely glad. I am not sure what the dispute is over either. But honestly the whole experience has been very harrowing. Everyone involved in the altercation was young and that makes me wonder what the government is doing to school the new generation about the risks of knife crime as it is a scene seen time and time again on our streets. Thanks for all the kind messsages

    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.   
    • Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one.  In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.
    • I guess its the thing these days to demonstrate an attitude, in this instance seemingly of the negative kind, instead of taking pride in your work and have standards then 🤷‍♀️
