Just to make people aware of bike thefts from the ED train station bike rack.


My son's bike was stolen from the bike rack at the station today between 3.30pm-7pm.


He asked station staff if they have any CCTVs. They do, but not trained on the bike racks. This seems a bit stupid really, especially as it sounds like it's happening a lot there.

Not sure that's quite fair as the crime stats for the last four months are down year on year, so they must be doing something right. There's one in the library a couple of afternoons a week if you want to talk about anything.


However, the station is a known hotspot and I agree with rahrahrah that they should be able to find footage of someone leaving with the bike (assuming they didn't get on a train with it).

Son said it was bike rack on the outside, near the crossing. Lock was a Raleigh cable lock. It was quite an old bike but he'd done it up with a new saddle and tyres a year or so ago, so some toe-rag obviously took a shine to it.


British Transport Police phoned today to say they need a few bits of info (what son was wearing, time he left bike) and they will look into it. They were very helpful.

    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.
