This new series of long-form conversations with local Southwark people should interest many of us. Big Ideas, Local Traction is the keynote. Launching mid July.DWident.thumb.jpeg.c1b902068a2de978407cf3dca17dac97.jpeg.

First up will be Dave Walker MBE, a mediator born and bred in Southwark who also trains young people in schools to mediate with their peers who have a beef with one another. So that's a win-win as the young person trained up feels great about life and themselves and actively contributes to better relations in the school community. Here's a trailer:

In two weeks time we publish the second edition with Colombian vicar Fernando Carrillo, brand new in Peckham on the Old Kent Road. Born in a Miami prison, ordained at St Paul's Cathedral!  Truly an amazing story. (You couldn't make it up.)

    • Yiddish is written in Hebrew script, traditionally, so any attempt to use 'Roman' script will be transliteration, as noted. Hebrew script does not have vowels as such, so any vowels used will try to copy the Yiddish sound of the word. Bagel and Beigel are both correct transliterations of the Yiddish word. 
    • Have they still not fixed it? that's pretty shabby. I took this picture on New Year's Day and it's been like this at least since before Xmas.     
    • To be fair, if I saw you eating any of the parcels I'd have walked out. I noticed last night that the illuminated sign now describes this place as the POT OFFICE. Presumably THC vapes are more profitable than being a drop-off point for bloody Evri
    • Housebuilding isn't that profitable and housebuilders don't have social responsibilities. The affordable housing component is just a tax on new builds. It's a total failure by government - a fantasy belief that the private sector is going to solve the state's social housing crisis for free. It's like expecting Tesco to solve child humgrr by giving away a percentage of its products. It's not gonna work - it just slows down and disincentivises private sector construction of new housing. The only solution to the housing crisis is a massive increase in the supply of housing, not a couple of "affordable" flats in a new development. The state needs to solve the problem of NIMBYs (one of whom is prominent on this thread), get out of the way of private sector developers building private rentals and homes for sale, and borrow to build a huge amount of social housing.
