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.

    • Doubt you would have got much change out of £150.00 for battery and certainly having forked out for it, best to use your car. I recently sold  my car via webuyanycar.com - very pleasant experience & was roughly what I was expecting. Pop your bangers reg jnto their website to get an idea of price - they do send e mails once a fortnight/month just as an aid for you. Easy enough to delete - don’t even have to read valuation. They literally buy any car - if you can’t get it to them, they will charge you to get it there or recommend a co that will do it for you. Must say, mine was a 2014 reg and whilst a bit suspicious, paid extra to get money into my account as needed it for next car but was assured funds had I not gone down route I took would be in my account within 5 days. I now live in the country - every time I have been back to Dulwich and surrounding area, normally get a fine for driving at wrong time or parking at  wrong time so if I drive now, park in West or East Dulwich and do everything else by public transport and walking.  Were I still to be living in ED then before I left was pondering this very issue but since I have been back regularly for health reason I no longer drive but take the train and then buses, walk or Uber. Much cheaper than running a car and had I stayed, that would have been the course I would have taken. I don’t go out everyday, have an allotment or job to go to or family so in my case, would be cheaper not to have a car.  Was truely shocked   at the cost of second hand cars…..but where I now live only has a smattering of buses so no choice but to have wheels to get from A to B etc.          
    • If you don't use the car often then suggest disconnect the battery between use by undoing the earth (negative / minus sign) cable from the battery and the battery will then last longer between use. Remember, central locking, alarm, clock, etc won't work with battery disconnected and wit ours I have to lock the doors with central locking before disconnecting battery as only have key on one door (leave bonnet open before locking doors). Hope this helps

    • Ahh shame about the cost of replacing the battery - especially (and I am assuming here) as the car probably isn't worth that much.  I do, however, think your decision is better than scrapping the car.  I will still update the results of our "experiment" in case this is of interest to others.  I absolutely refuse to scrap an otherwise perfectly good vehicle (especially as ours is ULEZ compliant - despite its age).  Nor am I enamoured with the idea of driving more just to keep the battery going.  If this little £35 gadget does the business then I shall be very happy.  We shall see......... Enjoy all those extra journeys, though if our gadget works then you might benefit from purchasing one and trickle-charging from time to time to save you having to make them.
