What are you angry about malumbu?


I can't remember where it was the last time it was in South London, though I do remember someone reporting here that the panel were later found eating somewhere in the Dulwich area. Someone will probably find the thread or even remember.

Apologies, my use of English is not good due to the EU. It will be better when we leave. We will also start brewing proper English beer again like Double Diamond and Red Barrel which sadly Brussels outlawed due to the lack of diamondsbarrels in the beer. A good topic of conversation when I bump into Nige again at a Westminster pub

Unless he's migrated to the States by then.

I hate this programme, it attracts extreme guardianista liberal elitists for the most part, and a handful of right wing nationalist fanatics on the other. There's no sensible middle ground, and the biased panel try to 'out do-gooder' each other, it's painful to watch. Time the BBC retired this show.

Don't they boast about how representative the audience is.


It's not at it's best however - Robin Day - he was a presenter :)

They do seem to have a problem with the chair.


But for me the truly dire aspect of this programme (as with the appalling Newsnight) is that it makes a pretence of serious discussion. Yet the format only allows soundbites. So we get people on it who are willing to give them.


Can you imagine a serious thinker participating in this programme? How could they even begin to construct an argument in the slots available?


The BBC is supposed to provide public service: in current affairs it has long since stopped even trying in the concern for 'audience'.

      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.
