Is there scope to alter one of the EDF drinks session to have a mini Question Time for the first 60 minutes? I don't think we'd get David Dimbleby to chair it but with Sean McG, David Carnell, TLS, ????, Moos, RosieH, PeckhamGateCrasher and Peckham Rose around we'd have a pretty wide range of views on a panel.


Recent threads over BNP, chalking, the EU, the credit crunch have all been interesting but .... difficult to follow as the threaders cross each other and the debating points sometimes become wilder.


PS: There might have to be a "no fisticuffs & leave all weapons at the door" policy.

I can't imagine many people would want to sit around and listen to us windbags argue back and forth.


Mind you, I love the sound of my own voice so am happy to shoot the breeze in real life with you, MamoraMan. Name your time and place. I nominate the Dulwich Constitutional Club for the first bout with a rematch at the Peckham Working Man's Club.

We'd make a great team Quids. I'll be the trustafarian and you can be the working class kid full of ideas and expectation and true to form I'll abandon our class bridging alliance and take a 50k job with the Tories at the end of the conference. I'll probably have you fitted up with some class A so you don't reappear later on when I'm an M.E.P and if you do I'll probably just use you as a campaign tool. Deal?

    • It is not Labour Party members who elect Labour governments, as it certainly isn't Conservative Party members who elect Conservative ones. It is all those who are not party members who actually make up the sufficient numbers to elect governments. 
    • Thanks for these responses. Yes, Cllr Browning & Cllr Hartley did a door-knocking exercise a couple of months ago. It was Maggie Browning who knocked and I told her that I'd had radio silence from Jon Hartley. She looked embarrassed but not surprised. I have spoken to him since, only after writting to Ellie Reeves, our MP about it his lack of response. He agreed to address the issue I asked about but I've not heard from him since. It's really not acceptable for an elected Councillor to consistently ignore his ward constituents. Since it's clearly not a one-off, I'm gonna pick this up formally. I'll let you know how I get on...
    • If memory serves, Labour under Corbyn got more electoral  votes than Labour under Starmer. So I'm not sure how you can call that being "unelectable"? Under a different and fairer electoral system Labour would have won. I see moves are afoot to bring in such a different, fairer system, presumably in the hopes of stopping Reform winning next time. BTW there was a mass exodus from Labour  by  the local (East Dulwich) Labour party members when Corbyn was kicked out by Starmer. It isn't just Islington who doesn't want to support  a right or centre right Labour party.
    • Is this the new shop next to Dulwich Tandoori? is it actually open and if so has anyone tried them.
