Is it vexatious to not want to see a family business or small useful shop disappear, only to be replaced by another high end hairdresser or Estate Agent?

Is it vexatious to not want another wine bar with sky high prices demanded in order to meet the high rent?

Is it vexatious to question the role of a massive (monopoly) landowner that ruins small established businesses in order to make money for the 'charity' that is the Dulwich private schools? (because this is where the money goes).

Personlly, I am shocked at the rip off prices in a particular 'child-orientated' toy shop - yes, the one complaining about the increased rent.


Perhaps they're more worried about their profits dipping than not being there for the kiddies..... (also have a shop along LL, so not too far away for the little ones to trek. And another one in Clapham and another one somewhere far away....


Buiness = money - it's their own model. No point complaining when you are the one feeling the pinch


As for the landlord - same goes.

What is your beef with people having a view on rising rents across an area? This is a neighbourhood discussion forum.

The shop which was the original Moo Too that moved to Lordship Lane and is now a charity shop - they moved because Dulwich Estate rents went too high.

Ditto the music shop that was on the corner.

Staff in the shops told me these things at the time.

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
