Hi,

I am an Oral Historian involved with the Elephant 21 project.

I would like to talk to long term residents from the Elephant

Castle area,to record their stories of life around the Elephant

before it disappears.

Does anyone have any relatives or friends who may be willing to help?

It would involve me going to their homes for 1 to 2 hours.

Thanks

Caz

Hi Cas. Can you give more details my family lived in that area for generations but laterly moved further afield, the older ones hAve now passed on, I have an early A to Z road atlas that shows the roads before the mass demolition and new housing built over old roads, I have tried to find an earlier one that showed all the small back streets and courtyards but with out luck, as these long gone pLaces keep coming up as the homes of the family. I did not live there I was born in Camberwell, and lived in Dulwich.

    • There was an excellent discussion on Newscast last night between the BBC Political Editor, the director of the IFS and the director of More In Common - all highly intelligent people with no party political agenda and far more across their briefs than any minister I've seen in years. The consensus was that Labour are so unpopular and untrusted by the electorate already, as are the Conservatives, that breaking the manifesto pledge on income tax wouldn't drive their approval ratings any lower, so they should, and I quote, 'Roll The Dice', hope for the best and see where we are in a couple of years time. As a strategy, i don't know whether I find that quite worrying or just an honest appraisal of what most governments actually do in practice.
    • They are a third of the way through their term Earl. It's no good blaming other people anymore. They only have three years left to fix what is now their own mess. And its not just lies in the manifesto. There were lies at the last budget too, when they said that was it, they weren't coming back for more tax and more borrowing. They'd already blamed the increase in NIC taxes on what they claimed was a thorough investigation. They either knew everything then or they lied about that too .   They need to stop lying and start behaving. If they don't the next government won't be theirs, it will be led by Nigel Farage.  They have to turn it round rapidly. Blaming other people, telling lies and breaking promises isn't going to cut it any more.
    • Is it lame? Or is it Lamey? (sorry)
