a search like that certainly shows evidence of the number of hits on google if you 'do it properly'(?), but it doesn's show anything else

Seeing as this thread is about whether Peckham Rye was or was not a worse area than other areas, why not look here:

It isn't explicit to stabbings but the number of crimes, makes for an interesting comparison if nothing else.

Exactly pk and stevebailey, one is random fact (google hits) and the other is a source of statistics....


It's like the Tories saying 'The no. of google hits for the word 'CRIME' has gone up exponentially since Labour has come into power.... :)


Edit to say that on my google search this link comes up on teh first page whereas i can't find anything on the actual stabbing this thread was orginially discussing.. what does that say????

it's not far off what they've done - using stats that official statisticians say should not be used for comparison purposes (due to different methods of collection) for comparison - then claiming crime increases where more reliable comparators show decreases!


and when this pointed out saying words to effect of 'well, we're going to keep using the comparisons anyway because they suit us'

Hi Jaws - I was on a bus at a standstill outside the 99p store at the time. Something was clearly going off ahead of us. Thankfully there was little evidence of it, apart from a taped off area of pavement, by the time we got moving again. I'd forgotten all about it until I saw this thread.


Horrible thing to have to witness - hope the playback is fading.

Whereas I was talking about 'single' and "double" quotation marks - see my personalised wiki page for details: Quotation Mark

I will guess that our very own Hal is "the man" on the subject of quotation marks? - I know because I have seen it on the WWW:

Hal's bit on the Web about the Qmarks - can you spot "HAL" somewhere?


The man is the local genius - no doubt about it.

      Holland & Barrett is coming to Lordship Lane

      By jazzer · Posted

      Time will tell if H&B are loved or loathed, the footfall they get and generate will determine if they stay or go. That's the nature of businesses, they come and go dependant on usage. Examples are M&S, Poundland Local, Co-op, Superdrug, Mons, the chain restaurant/takeaways, the chain Estate Agents, Toolstation, Screwfix to name a few.  As much as people would like to see Lordship Lane remain a high street of independents, it is becoming clear that due to Landlords hiking rents, some are unable to survive. This leaves empty units which some of the chain brands considering it to be worth a "punt". I'd have thought that businesses operating in shops is a better alternative than a high street with multiple empty units, but what do I know, they are just thoughts on the subject.   Take a look at Croydon and Bromley where what were once thriving high streets are in decline.  I have to say that some of the prices charged by the independents are eye watering, and incomes i'd have thought have to be substantial to afford their prices. Personally I'd love a Lidl to open on what was the site of the Harvester, but I guess that would get shouted down, oh the thought of Lidl in Dulwich. Whatever next.

      I don’t know what the shop was originally next to the big St Christopher’s but if Holland and Barrett are taking it over then surely it’s good to have a choice on Lordship Lane? The Camberwell H&B is always empty but the Brixton branch busy.  I remember when the Marks & Spencer food shop was Iceland? Now the M&S is a very busy store and at the time regenerated the high street!

      Nor would I have done, but it came up when I googled John Lewis reviews. Do you not trust TrustPilot reviews? Even allowing for the fact that many people only post reviews when they have had poor service, 27% one star reviews is indicative of something wrong, I would say. That's 27% of 76,392 reviews. That's an awful lot of people who don't  think the service they got from John Lewis was even worth two stars, let alone more. Screenshot attached.
