From a prominent Aristocratic Family and yet still possesses the "Common Touch"in dealing with ordinary,everyday,common or garden people.

She can still relate to what its like to have been "brung" up on a large Council estate,as well.

Wondrous Woman.(6)

Surely it's Harriet Harperson, she enjoyed one of the best private educations money can buy, educated at the independent St Paul's Girls' School and the University of York.

Has not voted on a freedom of information act.

Voted for introducing a smoking ban.

Voted for introducing ID cards.

Voted for introducing foundation hospitals.

Voted for introducing student top-up fees.

Voted for Labour's anti-terrorism laws.

Voted for the Iraq war.

Voted against investigating the Iraq war.

Voted for replacing Trident.


This is all from Wikidlies, but I'm sure it's correct. Talk about the nanny state!! By all accounts a very nice person, well educated, us working class people like that.

I am not quite sure why you're all picking on Lady Harman. Surely her voting record is no different to any other government member? And as far as her education goes York Uni makes her positively plebian compared to the Oxbridge Mafia surrounding her on both sides of the house..


Guilty confession....way back in the days when the local Labour Party was based in a terrace house on Grove Vale I had the opportunity to run Ms Harman over when she was trying to cross the road (no Pelican Crossing there then!). But as she was heavily pregnant at the time (I did say it was a while ago) I thought it would have been bad form to jeopardise my no claims bonus in such a caddish manner....B)

met the woman at her surgery, very nice, bleeding hardworking and has more conviction and backbone than the entire council executive put to together. I asked her if we could use the anti terrorism laws on said members of the council over their robbery of the Nunhead regeneration money and its plundered interest, she thought it was great idea and would look into it. Expect a knock some time soon.

Maybe I missed it or I don't do subtle, or maybe it's just because it's half past midnight, but the statement being made escapes me. Can you explain it for the hard of thinking please?

i was wondering the same too


how are the sales going? do people want this kinda stuff?


(edited for shocking typo)

I could probably flog some to the people I work with MM. They?re a bunch of wonks who speak about politicians in the same way normal people speak about rock stars.


Can?t walk around Westminster without them pointing at and gibbering about every obscure MP they catch sight of.

    • I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?
    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
    • Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
    • interesting the police said "the car was in demand at the moment" what make/model is that?
