I found them very good for most of the time I was registered with them apart from one insensitive GP phone call regarding test results (nurse was lovely). Apart from that though I honestly couldn't fault them - was able to get appointments, they referred me for reassurance investigations when a close relative was extremely ill, nurses were great etc. A friend had great support including on-site counselling for short term mental health issues. They degistered with me without warning when I *temporarily* moved a very short distance out of catchment so I'm still smarting about that! I subsequently registered with Nunhead Grove Surgery who I was delighted to find were even lovelier.

I'm with the gardens surgery and have had on the whole, a very good experience there. I find it easy to get an appointment when I need one and they are always fantastic about seeing my son 17 months, the same day if necessary. I have never been made to feel like the neurotic new mother! The reception staff are lovely too. A great practice in my opinion.

We had put up with very poor GPs in Lordship Lane after senior GP Dr During died and it took three years or so before The Gardens opened up their list as very over subscribed. Never regretted this move - all the GPs are good, Dr. Tran is lovely, Liz (Nurse) is easy to get on with and very helpful. Drs. Cliffe, Fryer and Addo are all approachable and willing to listen. Dr. Cliffe is very well up on mental health. Opening hours range from early morning appointments with a couple of late evenings.

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By Blah Blah · Posted

      Morally they should, but we don't actually vote for parties in our electoral system. We vote for a parliamentary (or council) representative. That candidates group together under party unbrellas is irrelevant. We have a 'representative' democracy, not a party political one (if that makes sense). That's where I am on things at the moment. Reform are knocking on the door of the BNP, and using wedge issues to bait emotional rage. The Greens are knocking on the door of the hard left, sweeping up the Corbynista idealists. But it's worth saying that both are only ascending because of the failures of the two main parties and the successive governments they have led. Large parts of the country have been left in economic decline for decades, while city fat cats became uber wealthy. Young people have been screwed over by student loans. Housing is 40 years of commoditisation, removing affordabilty beyond the reach of too many. Decently paid, secure jobs, seem to be a thing of the past. Which of the main parties can people turn to, to fix any of these things, when the main parties are the reason for the mess that has been allowed to evolve? Reform certainly aren't the answer to those things. The Greens may aspire to do something meaningful about some of them, but where will they find the money to pay for it? None of it's easy.

      Yes, but the context is important and the reason.

      That messes up Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland - democracy being based on citizenship not literacy. There's intentionally no one language that campaign materials have to be in.

      TBH if people don't see what is sectarian in the materials linked to above when they read about them, then I don't think me going on about it will help. They speak for themselves.  I don't know how the Greens can justify promising to be a strong voice for one particular religion. Will that pledge hold when it comes to campaigning in East Dulwich (which is majority atheist)? https://censusdata.uk/e02000836-east-dulwich/ts030-religion
