The worst bits of cliquiness that do from time to time emerge on here.


I admit that CC, is one of my best mates in the real world, and I know he posted this when really drunk at 2:30 in the morning, that is why I laughed, because it was a funny rant.


I do think he would have been better just sticking to the housing thread rather than starting this.


I know what you're saying about going against the liberal norm, and questioning immigration. In fact, people like myself and Jeremy supported some of these questions, Tony just went a bit OTT with it, and held on to it like a dog with a bone.


Tony has never said anything overtly racist, but A LOT of people have raised questions about whether or not he is. Personally, I have no idea if he is a racist, or just an old school white Londoner, but I can see why people have made assumptions.


When I first saw Tony's user name, and where he lived, I admit to immediately labelling him as a racist flamer. Since then, he has become quite a big part of the forum (for better or worse), and I think I was hasty. I do however think that he doth protest too much on occasion.


Sometimes he makes me laugh though.

SteveT will not be banned for comments to date.

Tony.London.Suburbs will also not be banned for comments to date*. He has been warned before for taking discussions off topic hence he cannot post outside the Lounge. He has also been warned for not reporting an offensive and illegal post and instead saying "Admin will get into trouble for this, let's see how long it'll take to be removed". That mockery is not in the spirit of the forum.


At the end of the day, if one person is spoiling the forum for lots of people then action will be taken, but people have to let me know their thoughts. I have had about six complaints about Tony.London.Suburbs in in the last six months, which is borderline and the situation is being monitored.


Please remember it is not about censorship, is is about dealing with individuals who make the forum an unfriendly and unwelcoming place. That is not what I want the forum to be.


*However if he refers to me as mate or mucker he will be.

SteveT will not be banned for comments to date.

Tony.London.Suburbs will also not be banned ......................


Hooray for our Administrator we have top quality management, only in my humble Daily Mail biggotted opinion of course.



I am still waiting to get a reply from CrystalClear and LegalEagle-ish on the alleged inflammatory remarks I made on the Housing immigrants thread.


I am a very patient man, well in this case anyway.

Very clever Santerme, especially given CrystalClear's foul-mouthed tirade

I have written less than ten lines in total on that housing thread, so I can understand why you 'can't be arsed trawling through all that garbage'.

I think I can say that I have never read through an entire TLS post. It's the form and content argument, the structure and style of his prose entirely obscures any meaningful point he wants to make. Read everyone else's responses and you know precisely what Tony has said.


Actually, you can pretty much just read Tony's username and you know...

I've read through some of his posts, if they seem coherent and normal a quick Google search shows that he's copied it from somewhere and tried on pass it off as his own. Tony didn't like the fact that I pointed it out a couple of times, and then he made out that I'd committed the crime.

    • Two local ‘High Streets for People’ events happening today: - Southwark celebrates High Streets for People On Saturday 21 June, Southwark Council is bringing residents, families, communities and businesses together to celebrate our High Streets. On Bellenden Road, Peckham, there will be a community event from 11am to 4pm with children’s games, face-painting, live music including a samba band and DJs, food from local businesses, cycling activities and much more. The road will be temporarily shut to vehicles between Danby Street and Choumert Road from 7am to 7pm, with buses diverted during this time to make space for community and family activities. Councillor James McAsh, Cabinet Member for Clean Air, Streets and Waste, said: “What a great way to celebrate the first day of Summer! Streets for People is about putting people first — making our neighbourhoods places where communities can connect, businesses can thrive, and everyone can enjoy cleaner air and safer streets.” Partners in the event include Bellenden Road businesses, London Play, Peddle my Wheels, JoyRiders, Community Cycleworks, the London Samba Band, OurBike, Poetic Unity. North Cross Road market will also be extended on Saturday 21 June, with extra traders taking part. Vehicle access will be restricted up to Lacon Road between 8am and 5pm to accommodate this. Local communities are also organising a number of play streets and street parties to mark the start of summer. The council has approved 18 road closures in June and July, allowing communities to enjoy their streets without traffic for the day. All these activities support Southwark’s Streets for People strategy, which seeks to make streets across the borough cleaner, greener, safer and more welcoming.  Investments are being made in walking and cycling routes, improved air quality, and creating more space for community use. Find out more at www.southwark.gov.uk/highstreetsforpeople As part of its commitment to do something each year that brings residents, community groups and businesses together to take climate action, Southwark Council has also arranged a number of free events as part of London Climate Action Week. You can view the full list of events at www.southwark.gov.uk/climate-week
    • It does seem a common business strategy these days. River Island has just announced a similar restructuring: closing 33 shops and demanding that the landlords of a further 71 locations take a haircut. 
    • If anyone has any spare tickets for Crystal Palace on Sunday let me know!
    • The tenant's business has already failed. If the landlord doesn't accept it, they can have a vacant property, stand in the queue of creditors, and get paid little or nothing. It's a gamble that the restructuring will work and the tenant will start paying rent again. Commercial properties are often hard to let. 🤷
