MY EDF Cronies.. I don't have cronies. Most people here would probably agree with you.


The Problem is that there are very few actual 'Local Businesses' Businesses' owned by Local people in ED.


Most are outsiders coming to ED for the Rich Pickings.


Places like Franco Manca is not a Local Business. Its a chain...


It's not just a question of supporting Local Businesses. ?


Local Businesses should be supporting Local People by providing what the whole of the local community 'Needs'

and not what a small minority of the local community 'Wants'


Do you see the difference. ?

I'm praying that Late Knights Brewery take it over. Beer Rebellion in Gipsy Hill is easily my favourite bar right now. (There is another one at Queens Road, Peckham that I haven't been to yet) They have a superb selection of ales, burgers and finger food is a fiver a pop. If they were to take it over I'm sure they'd make a success of it.

There was some activity earlier in the week..


Just looked like they were clearing out all the junk and old furniture..


I'm sure we will all know as soon as something is planned..


Then another 9 months before anything is likely to open.


Not really bothered what happens to the place...

The problem is that in more recent times, past 4 - 5 years people did not frequent the place.


Each subsequent 're-furb' seemed to make the place less appealing.


The last attempt at re-inventing the place did not live up to expectations.

That's exactly the problem isn't it... a large, empty, uninviting space. At least some sort of chain would probably have the know-how and experience to make the place feel a bit more warm and welcoming.

    • Disagree. Where are the police when you need them? People want a police presence, they want to feel reassured by seeing them do what the word suggests, policing, so go catch some bad guys, arrest, charge and get the CPS to prosecute with the evidence to enable this to happen. Stabbing and shootings are so common place they no longer even get reported in the public domain. How many crimes don't get solved? Rather case closed and forgotten. The number of low to high level crimes which remain unsolved is staggering.  The criminal fraternity know this, they know they won't get caught so they just carry on.  Biggest crimes which affect most people, probably are phone and car theft, both are prolific and what do the police do, diddly squat. zilch, nothing, provide a crime reference number and the case is closed. Not good enough, not by a country mile.   Met Engage? I don't think so.

Recent data suggests a drop in violent crime. Gang violence will make a significant contribution to the numbers. You are unlikely to be attacked by a stranger   
    • Unfortunately there are plenty of shops which don't care and will sell vapes, alcohol and weed to minors, I'm sure they won't care about selling them fireworks. Or the kids nick them.
    • It’s getting a bit annoying. We’ve a nervous dog who trembles when they go off. I know to expect it around Halloween and Diwali but it seems to be happening more through the year.
