I just went past Camberwell Old Cemetery on Underhill Road and noticed significantly fewer trees. What on earth has happened? It used to be dense, now you can see right into the cemetery.


I thought Southwark Council had implied tree felling wasn't to be done without consultation/ for some time/ not heavy handed?!


Very, very sad loss of further green spaces and habitat.

Southwark has in all likelihood (as I don't sit in the meetings) used an opportunity to take down trees to make Mr Hargrove's vision of a "traditional" cemetery a reality. Trees with plaques can be a cemetery. Benches with plaques under trees and in foliage can be a cemetery. Wall made of plaques with dense bio-diversity can be a cemetery. Two layers of cement is the vision of the Council because that's "what people want".

      Up the reform

      But we’re not in Canada so why celebrate their recent election? Wasn’t their winner our Bank of England director up until his defection to his homeland of Canada? He caused chaos  in this country with his put down of everything British and his many dismal words about the effects of Brexit on this country.

      Neighbours not using their food waste bin

      I expect that they consider it should be a free choice what to do with your waste, and that segregating it is a waste of money, no doubt it's all a woke conspiracy.  I expect that others are more up to speed with Reform policies. I should have asked Nigel when I was drinking with him.  Well within the vicinity of him in Westminster pubs a couple of times.

      Let's see how a Leader and party that thrive on division and demonising elements of our society actually do when they have to deliver. Let's hope that the two main parties don't consider that the best way to fight Reform is to become like then. Even less reason to visit the small town where I grew up.  Not a cause for any joy or celebration. Happy to celebrate the Canadian result.

      The Reform Party has surely taken the Conservatives and Labour by surprise? I’ve been a Conservative voter since the age of 18 and voted for them in the General Election last Summer. Sadly Labour were elected but their policies on so many issues have been their downfall as they did not stick to them.
