I know there are some much more serious threads on here right now - but I just have to vent about a Council leaflet dropper's rudeness this morning. As I was negotiating leaving the house this morning with our newborn and toddler, said leaflet dropper pushed passed us in the doorway - entered our house and dropped leaflets in our hallway. When I said 'excuse me that's unbelieveably rude!' he just said 'Whatever'.


Ironically one of the leaflets he dropped was called WHTVR - which I believe means the same (so not my demographic!).

The other was called something like 'Investing in you'. Maybe Southwark Council should invest in some considerate leaflet dropper - or market research into who is in their properties.


Or is this a new type of Guerilla marketing, which I've fallen for, as I'm now talking about this on the forum?


Either way - I'm gobsmacked at the home invasion!

Thinking about it ryedalema, although a bit clumsy and ill-mannered you could say your leaflet dropper was doing his job too well. His job is to make sure the leaflets are delivered into your home and he obviously took his responsibilities literally.


If you report him he may well be promoted.

So the leafletter went into your house? As in your hallway, entrance room etc? It wasn't a communal hall way or anything like that in a shared flat it was your house and your private front door? Oh my god! He walked passed you (bumped into you) as you were coming out of YOUR house, entered YOUR house and said whatever when you protested? Unbelivable! If I was you I'd be on the phone to the council ASAP!!

NickW - very strange - you wouldn't happen to be said leafletter would you?

NickW,


I think your comment is way out of order and ryedalema deserves an apology from you for the slander and the personal attack.


As for...'Your comment epitomizes everything that is wrong with East Dulwich', it may help to have a look in the mirror and see what you see.

I feel sorry for the disadvantaged. Problems we encounter in our society are because of all of us. Being snobby and pointing on internet forums does not help. It was not the above post, I read back through all ryedalemas posts and it was as a result of this I was so aggressive. I feel she is a bully.

xxxxxxxx


I've just looked through her posts and I don't know what you're talking about.


And even if she was a bully, does that give somebody else the right to barge past her and her small children into her own house?

    • Why is the name a big of a red flag? Blighty is a common name for the UK whatever people might think.
    • The only election which counts is the General Election.  There is still strong resentment for fourteen year's of Conservative rule. They squeezed the working class's way to hard, then they squeezed the middle class, but somehow the upper class never got touched, funny that.   There is also new resentment for Labour because of the utter balls up they've made of things since coming to power nine months ago. The majority of the population (or at least those with an ounce of common sense) want these clowns out of office ASAP because they see the damage they are doing to UK plc. They squeezed the pensioners, then the farmers and then business. They made and broke promise after promise, or just didn't tell the truth or say what they where going to do, otherwise known as merely lying to get elected. Inflation may be falling but the cost of things in the shops and utility bills keep on rising, the direct opposite of what they promised. They will never be trusted once they are ousted from power in about four and a half years time.   Everything they do and touch causes further harm, led by three stooges, Rayner, Reeves and balls'less Starmer, who couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. He still thinks he's a solicitor at the DPP. Rather than spending week upon week getting involved in international politics he needs to be sorting out the UK's issues, sadly he's not up to the job and nor are his Cabinet.  Society needs a mix of people with different skills to prosper, not more and more graduates who can't get jobs in what they studied in.   Reform is the current anti establishment party, which will hopefully wither away back to where it came from.  The Liberals and Greens, well what can you say apart from using them as another alternative vote of dissatisfaction, but neither will come to power.  The country seriously needs stability and a Government that stands up for and represents it's people, not what MP's want but what the constituencies want and need.  Government needs to become far more open and transparent, it needs to be seen to be doing its job, doing what MP's are elected to do,  working for the people in the constituencies, getting back to basic principles and rebuilding the trust which has been lost by successive party's immaterial of them being, red, blue, light blue, yellow, green or some other colour.     
    • That’s very insulting! You are basically calling 17 million people that voted to leave the EU ‘thick’.        Brexit happened Sue.  Boring graphs!  Calling Nigel Farage a plastic patriot is also very insulting seeing as he and the Reform Party have had a landslide victory all over England.
    • These charity collectors are often classed as chuggers.  It can be scandalous that the charity/admin may keep a huge percentage of your donations and a tiny percentage is  actually given to the charity.   I can not speak for individual collectors - but it common practice.
