She never did live in Dulwich. She bought the house, the builders chopped down the trees at the back of the rugby pitch where we used to go for a sneaky cigarette during school, to make way for her garden. All for nothing, she never stayed there.


I too saw a mini motorcade a couple of weeks ago twice coming down LL from the Harvester and turning down Barry Road, no idea why. There didn't seem to be anyone except for the driver in Range Rover which was the main car. Ho hum.

Sweet Knackared Cow,


Indeed it was me. I had been over to Morrisons in Peckham, and well, you can't be too careful (sigh). This Swine Flu situation is making me very nervous, and I decided to do one great big shop on all of the essentials in case stocks run out in the stores. They do not sell high quality hoisery in Peckham so I am off into Sloane Square this morning (even civil disopedience and looting in the streets should be no excuse for wearing poor quality tights and stockings). I bought a couple of trays of Lloyd Grossman pasta sauces, a large quanitity of tinned salmon and tuna, and my body weight in dried pasta and rice and a huge amount of Evian. Those nice police men even helped me to carry it into my home!

    • And I replied: Mandelson and Trump have much in common. They are both shallow, vulgar and vain. They both fetishise wealth and power, irrespective of who holds it or how it was accumulated. They were both close friends and associates of the late Jeffrey Epstein and have moved in the same circles, as Ghislaine Maxwell’s address book allegedly confirms. Recognising another who is utterly transactional and lacking in a moral compass, there’s every chance of “Petie” fitting right in Mar-a-Largo. That Starmer couldn’t anticipate that Mandelson’s past behaviour would be problematic just proves how inept this government is.
    • Can't agree with that because he is a superb communicator - a really smart and  smooth talker. He studied PPE at Oxford and was communications director for Labour for many years.  Setting aside the "minor"  indiscretions during his time in government he has all the smoothness and ability to flatter Trump without appearing obsequious. Plus he can manage and exploit  Trump’s ego. He is highly polished socially, comfortable in elite circles, skilled at making personal connections. He can flatter and disarm, which is a useful tactic with Trump, who responds well to personal respect and praise. As a former EU Trade Commissioner and Cabinet minister, Mandelson understands international relations, trade, and diplomacy. He knows how to frame issues in terms of “wins” that Trump could claim credit for. I honestly hope that he survives.  
    • He is toast  he should never have been appointed  and starmer flannelling about all of this shows exceptionally poor judgement  a disgrace all around 
    • Like everyone, super impressed with Leon. Came when he said he would. Gave great advice. Job done really quickly and efficiently. Perfect. Highly recommend
