So... apparently the council can remove the blue paint to reveal the mural underneath easily(http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,169941,page=5).


However, the blue paint is still there. Anyone have any idea what is going on or have the council just fobbed off the people that they're accountable too?

xxxxxxx


Anybody else not sure what this was about, or is it just me?


:-$

mmmmmm their subsequent lack of accountability, yes how right you are. It's has a funny effect when people like to pretend they are accountable but deep down they know they are not. The mechanisms to hold them to account are never simple and it always takes a huge effort and lot of time to make it happen, voting a government out etc is not a simple thing, and the odds and tools favor the people who have the power. It would be nice to have a mechanism to really keep the pressure up on public servants and companies who work for and are funded by the tax payer, that really does this. Those public commitee's that blair introduced are a little step in the right direction, but are used often only to placate us through the media. for example; "lets call the bankers in and tell them off" then watch them sail away smiling off camera and away from the public glare.

I have skimmed through the previous thread on this subject, and I can't see a contact number or link to Mr Rose who seems to be the one who was dealing with it - does anybody have this info?


I am happy to chase to find out what is happening, but I don't have time at the moment to seek out the contact details.

I've just been shown the notes from the Friends of Goose Green AGM that was held in the Goose Green Community Centre yesterday evening.


A new design has been commisioned from Stan Peskett, the artist, on the same theme as the original mural. The plan is to involve local children in producing the mural, in the same way that they were involved in the original painting.


The mural will be launched as part of the Dulwich Festival in May.

    • I completely agree with you, Angelina. But it's worth noting that no one else has a problem with her, or finds her rude /  has mentioned her aggressively banging gates / ringing doorbells etc. 
    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
    • I am sure our lovely Evri delivery team, who do a firkin hard job, take the time between drops to read the East Dulwich Forum 🤫
    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
