I hope he does, he's vile.


Well done to James Barber - certainly puts in the legwork on this forum and I wouldn't be surprised if that engagement was partly responsible for his victory, especially in such anti-LD times.

Common sense prevailed then. At least in Southwark. Hopefully it will soon happen everywhere else.


ETA: Really hope that Vanessa & the AWP have done well in the Euro elections.

Yes, the common sense alternative for people who don't want the shower running the country running the council as well.

I'm sorry for Robin - she's been as good a local representative on the council as any other, but suffered from the national party effect. I long for the day when all local councillors are independents (as they are in many places in Europe), but I'm not holding my breath.

Yes, that's right, Southwark Council, the common sense choice (for middle class liberals) fantastic custodians of our wellfare!


Council tax arrears @ 23/02/2014 - Almost 8 mil ? [?7,960582.95p]


Rent arrears @ January this year ? just over ?16 million.


Can't wait for the GE!

    • Loki hasn’t been seen since Sunday. He’s all grey but if you look closely he has faint stripes on the top of his tail. No pedigree, just very much loved. About 4 years old. No collar, but chipped.  please keep an eye out for him. We live on Barry Road SE22
    • I went in here the other day. The fruit is all really good - ripe and fresh. They also sell good bread (and croissants and pastries) from a independent bakery, the name of which I've forgotten. 🤦 The prices (which are marked) are not cheap but they are fair imo. Comparable to the specialist fruit shop on Lordship Lane (Brothers?) for really good quality. It's similar prices to Simply Fresh - but Simply Fresh's fruit and veg is very poor. Beaten about and tasteless. Sainsbury's is certainly cheaper. IMVHO they're a good addition to the Dulwich Village "retail offer".
    • Went actually for the first time yesterday. Terrific food, so was well pleased. Agree with previous poster to support.
    • Hi!! Moving house soon so looking for some cardboard boxes. Anyone know of any shops or cafes that may be giving some away?
