The whole of ED is going to be put at major inconvenience/increased risk because of two expensive fee paying schools and the pattern of behaviour their parents exhibit. But protesting will make no difference. Southwark never consult meaningfully. They consult to say they have consulted then crack on with what they have already decided they will do. This will be no different.

This will do a fantastic job of pushing the problem somewhere else. Even better it pushes the problem away from an expensive fee paying school towards a free, state school used by local residents. Makes perfect sense.

Have had the same fraud attempted on my card. Blocked by bank. Use both of the shops you mention regularly too.

A casino

a totally moronic post. Speak to the bakery if you care that much. Otherwise stop stirring trouble.

Great proposals from Horniman. Thanks for flagging dbboy. I will be expressing my support in the consultation and encouraging others to do so.

Worried that if I leave there will be a mass raid so will get my mate Brian to pop over. He's crap with nunchuks but is an expert shuriken practitioner so will be fine.

Khan gets lots of positive national headlines because Trump doesn't like him, but the reality is things are getting worse transport wise in ED. This is a massive reduction in local service. And of course our local Labour councillors simply rolled over. Not a scintilla of fight or exercising influence. Party loyalty over loyalty to the area they are supposed to represent.

I've been patrolling Tesco with my nunchukas recently and no one has nicked anything. Problem solved.

What we need is a committee of EDF regulars to approve any new business application and consider it in light of culinary and social diversity. This will ensure an efficient market and bring an end to all these silly entrepreneurs with their fancy ideas of competing with other businesses and meeting unmet demand. Long live the Committee.

If only more East Dulwich men carried nunchukas and swords and stuff they could stop groups of boys stealing bottles from Tesco. Instead all these pussies do is get on with their lives and leave it to the police.

its happening next month

Love mini-golf.

They probably already know what draconian scheme they are planning, but will be sequencing the consultation to get the result they want.
