Looks like it’s back up now.

Yes, I think I?ll be voting. I?m in Dulwich Wood ward and despite a great deal of ambivalence about the Labour Party and politics generally, I have always had very prompt responses to issues i have raised with Andy Simmonds. As I have a pair of fully functioning legs and couldn?t afford to run a car even if I wanted to, the whole LTN thing is pretty much irrelevant to people like me.

My living room windows look out onto the stretch of the South Circular that runs up the hill from the Grove Tavern to the Horniman Museum and this assertion is basically untrue. I?m currently working from home and have regular opportunities to look out of the window. The traffic is no busier than it always has been.

Genuinely encouraged by the altruistic responses to this thread about concern for people on lower incomes and their access to the green spaces in the borough. I can?t afford to own a car so do pm me about when you are available to pick me up and give me a lift to my local park.

Oh dear. How embarrassing for you. Another thread you have started that you have been comprehensively owned on.

Another recommendation for James from me. Excellent service and very reasonable prices.

I?m wondering how many of these people whining about traffic on back streets own a car.

Not really. People with serious disabilities tend to have a blue badge. However I see a lot of older people and those with mobility issues on the bus.

That you are too lazy not to use your car? I guess it is yes. tomskip Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > I will definitely go elsewhere to shop if I have > to pay for parking on or near Lordship Lane. Such > a shame for our local independents.
