There have been more than a few cozy relationships between councils and those leading the street by street campaigns around other LTNs - to the point where it feels less than organic.

According to the BBC (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4ge92xldrjo) Andrew Hanson who ran the Better Streets West Dulwich campaign, the lobby group pushing Lambeth for the West Dulwich LTN, is the partner of Anna Goodman and of course, beyond being famous for tearing down the LTN poster, she authored "impartial" reports on LTNs that Lambeth used. She admitted she was part of the local pro-LTN lobby group but did so only in a "personal capacity".

I do hope the truth comes out about what happened with Ryedale, who was pulling the strings and why. People are owed an explanation on why such a ludicrous idea ever saw the light of day - yet alone was funded with tax-payers money.

      Fatality Dulwich (Seeley Drive, SE21)

      By Dogkennelhillbilly · Posted

      A couple of updates to this terrible event:   1) In 2021, two cousins (one from Penge and one from Streatham) were convicted of murder and sentenced to a minimum of 23 years in prison. The Southwark News has a summary of the awful day. https://southwarknews.co.uk/area/dulwich/donnell-rhule-dulwich-knife-murderer-cousins-sentenced-to-life-for-killing-18-year-old/    2) Last week, a female prison officer from Forest Hill was sentenced to eight months in prison for pursuing a relationship with one of the two murderers while at HMP Brixton. https://metro.co.uk/2025/12/15/probation-officer-admits-relationship-prisoner-hmp-belmarsh-25501445/ https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/38203627/probation-officer-jailed-illicit-relationship-murderer-secure-prison/

      Has anyone had any joy contacting Helen Hayes out MP?

      By ianr · Posted

      The Commons Public Accounts Committee questioned both the CEO and MD of Capita yesterday, at their last meeting before the recess:  https://committees.parliament.uk/event/25889/formal-meeting-oral-evidence-session/.  In October they'd already expressed concern that Capita might not  be able to efficiently retake over responsibility for the administration within the timescale. Given the joint statement recently issued by Capita and the Cabinet Office I'm not sure that contacting an MP is going to add much, other than venting what I think most of us can probably appreciate of what those affected are likely  to be thinking and feeling; unless perhaps, and I hope it's not needed, to report on deficiencies in the immediate rescue actions.

      She's responded, but I'm sure I read something in the Guardian consumer advice column. Might be some pointers if you're stuck

      The going home for the weekend song thread...come on you groovey foookers

      Two for Ratcliffe, the obvious one:   And one simply because it has the word  "You are nothing but blind fascists" in it.  Oh and a good song too.   Haven't listened to this for years.  Bloody good!
