Hi all,


I've just got home and read the leaflet Tessa Jowell et al has just dropped through my letter box. Now, is it just me or are they missing the point. Their 'priorities' put providing more recycling bins ABOVE housing, crime, commerce. What a toothless campaign Tessa leads. Oh, but wait, she's going to 'help local shopping areas such as Lordship Lane' What, from not putting parking meters in? My hero! You, my saviour, will spare us from the madness.


No doubt I'll get other leaflets through from the others and I'll be just as scathing.


Come on! someone must be able to do better than this?

The other thing about Labour's strategy is Peter fooking Mandleson. The Labour Party have obviously - and I guess rightly, decided Gordon is an electoral disaster so he's off the radar and sooo the de facto face of governemnt, Mandleson. Firstly he's not an elected member of the Parliament which makes me uncomfortable and though I suspect he is genuinely dynamic, gets thing's going etc the Laboour party have forgeten *coughs and waves* us lot, you know the electorate who by and large MISTRUST HIM.


Still, don't get me started on the tories...at one stage some evidence of some new and diffrent thinking, then a whiff of victory and Stum, no-one saying anythting about anything in case they arse it up...and guess what, they have, Europe and on the other side Cameron's tongue ever nearer Murdoch Jnrs ring.


I think i'm going to vote for that lot no-one knows any of their policies - is David Owen still their top man?

Straight into the shredder


It's easy to drop rhetorical pamphlets in doorways - never had a candidate at my door canvassing my opinion


At least Labour did this... never heard from Tories at all


I say, bring 'em on... all colours would get an ear bashing from me

Somebody told me the Tories are actually in power in this area - is this true? Like Barry Rhode I have never heard from them - quite a few leaflets from Lib Dems, some stuff from Labour. Actual people? No.


Would vote for Green or a properly local independent - does such a candidate exist in ED/Peckham Rye?

The Lib-dem lady called and gave me a leaflet she said are you Steve T and I agreed as soon as she told me who she represented and my eyes rolled upwards in disgust.


She asked if I had anything against her party I explained it was nothing personal I was against politicians left right and centre equally.


She smiled and said thank you very much to persue some other cave dweller who had no idea what politicians were responsible for.


Had she been less amenable I would have given her a tongue lashing, but she was young, innocent, and attractive, which is the most positive thing I have said of anyone connected with politics for some years.


I could never vote for that untrustworthy slippery eel, Man D.

    • Just to warn anyone thinking of employing or engaging Chris and Anna Richmond, that nothing has changed.  The accounts above from others are all too familiar.  A job that we were told would take between 6-8 months is now entering its 23rd month.  They have taken enormous amounts of money from us, finished nothing, and the quality of the work that they have delivered is poor to substandard.  They take no responsibility themselves - there are endless excuses and everything is someone else's fault.  They do not care about the impact that their actions have on anyone else.   They are, at best, chaotic. They have not delivered as the designers or project managers that they claim to be. They are rarely on site to monitor the progress or quality of the job that is being delivered and they and manage their largely non-English speaking workforce by WhatsApp and Google translate.  There has been little evidence that they employ the skilled tradespeople needed to lay tiles, install bathrooms and kitchens, decorate and complete to the standard that we have paid for.  I cannot stress enough, that if you are currently in discussion with Anna and Chris Richmond about a future job or have paid them money up front for a job that they have slipped in delivering, to quit while you are ahead.  Things won't get better.
    • Hi All, I’d like to recommend Aaron Manser, who several others on this forum have also used. Aaron is an excellent plasterer, and has just finished a complicated piece of plastering work for me, including a large expanse of ceiling. His work has been of the highest quality, his attention to detail is exceptional, and he’s also very quick, and tidy too. As an added bonus he has a lovely singing voice. Happy to provide any photos of the work he has done. This is the third time over the past few years I’ve had Aaron back. Aaron Manser - 07773 410661 Regards, Damien
    • I really have to smile as I was the one, years ago who posted about what Gala was.. had not a clue, but drove and drive regularly. Felt such a fool at the time but wow, years later post still comes up.. with comments. Still don’t understand why a lot of park is cordoned off and glad not a resident overlooking park.. must be so noisy but now dates have been kindly supplied, those that don’t want to chill and listen to music in their flats/houses can up sticks and explore UK or abroad. Totally understand that in a built up area and millions in London, music events take place all over the capital to allow access to all.  Brockwell  Park, Dulwich Park, don’t hear anything going on in or around Telegraph Hill or indeed Horniman Gardens.. Crystal Palace I believe do their own thing.  Do these events , clearly charge, provide their own insurance, public liability, crowd control, first aiders, security and policing? Rubbish clearance etc  
    • Personally I think the second weekend has always been a tactical ploy with no real intention of going ahead with it. The council then turn it down (saying they have listened to us, which of course they haven’t) and announce that they will only license one weekend. GALA get the result that they want - job done. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if the council even suggested this ploy, they are so desperate to keep the event.
