There is a world of difference between the fact (which I agree with btw, but that isn't the discussion bring had here) that some bits of London are high crime areas within which the police use more 'intense' tactics when they go in, and the theory that this has translated into Islamic-dominated 'no-go' zones which are breeding grounds for extremists.


The radicalisation is happening, but not like that. It's a more insidious process (again that's a different discussion), but it has not translated into territorial dominance of East London by extremists. And by implying it has (which you seem to be doing) you are indeed talking about British (ie mainly white) people vs Islamic (mainly Arabic/African) people. So skin colour does become a factor. Though I'll concede it's a minor one, as there are several examples of radicalised white British Muslim converts who go to Syria and do a modern day Lord Haw Haw.


Anyway - localised crime/extremist Jihadis, not the same thing, I guess is my point.

I run all around London (for fun) and I can confirm I have never come across a no-go area anywhere in south or east London. Yes, I am a bit more careful at night but still no issue with anywhere including Angell Town, Burgess Park, north Peckham, Tower Hamlets, Carey Gardens, Winstanley Estate, Tulse Hill.


Grok - name one street or estate that I should test out and I will report back how it goes, both at daytime and night. If you like, then please name 5 areas and I'll rank them for you.

You prove it. Give us some facts instead of spouting rubbish. You can't can you. Just like you seem to think I'm in the pub all the time. I'm not.

Sadly, there's also an online pettion supporting closing our borders a la Trump that apparently has more support than the Trump one but is not getting the 'press'


All this online petition and the simplistic, thick, virtual signalling crap of the politics of Social Media is actually restoring my faith in Representative Democracy rather than Direct Democracy. The loudest people on social media seem the most angry, dimwitted Fookwits in the world.

I couldn't agree with you more.


The petitions I get via Change.org are terrible.

Hopkins is a shock jock, pure and simple. The more you hate her, you more she digs her heels in and carries on with what she does. I actually really like her style, I think we could learn a lot from her. I don't agree with her on Trump, but guess what she has the right to say and do what she pleases in a democracy. I'd quite like to see her up against Lady Colin Campbell, now that would be highly entertaining.

I'd quite like to her up against a wall and shot without a blindfold. I'd find that highly entertaining. Can you just imagine the TV ratings?


Also, Colin is a bit of an odd name for a lady don't you think? I blame the parents.

      The Mansion Tax

      By DuncanW · Posted

      I would challenge that. Price is a function of supply and demand - that's what I learnt at school anyway. It doesn't matter what your costs are, if supply increases and demand remains constant, prices (rents) will fall. And vice versa

      The Mansion Tax

      By beansprout · Posted

      Strange isn’t it…..other European countries s actually come up with solutions to house homeless people, which are pod structure, use of office blocks, etc. homeless are provided with thermals, warm sleeping bag and tent or pop up tent plus tech friendly clothing which means they are warm in extreme conditions. Us in UK? Nothing but chuckinto house of multiple occupation, which is usually not warm and not all have mould, but some do.. live in one room even if you are a family with good only knows what other sort of people…  not referring to ethinicity here but more along the lines of mental health problems, drugs, alcoholics. Single and families all in one property. Or if you are one of the lucky ones, into a hotel you go…   Why don’t we as a nation claw back more money in the form of tax  or avoidance avoidance, off shore accounts or other ways that rich or investors do buck the system….

      Buying loft from Southwark Council

      By milka234 · Posted

      Hello! I’m considering buying the demise for the loft-space above my flat (facing the classic renovate or move scenario for an additional bedroom or 2). Has anyone had recent experience of buying the demise from Southwark? Interested to know how they’re handling the premium/valuation.  thanks!
