"Sorry but Crystal Palace is absolutely something to with a council ! - Mayor of London, London assembly, the new GLC whatever you what like to call it. And as it serves the need of a community that is very close by I would think that local council, would take some interest ?"


But your point related to borough council's rather than the Mayor or the London Assembly, and local council's taking an interest in developments is not the same as having a responsibility for which they should be put under close public scrutiny, except where a project (such as CP) is could be, or is, part of the council's culture/sport/leisure strategy.


"As for the scrutiny commitee and the minutes it's not exactly direct engagement, and does not cover what has been decided outside of meetings and behind closed doors."


You said there was no scrutiny provision and I showed you that there was. Whether you are satisifed with it is a different issue, but you are free make your views known here through Community Councils and elected councillors (you could even stand yourself), unlike in places under the political control of people such as General Musharaf.

    • The SSRS app (Safer seas and rivers service), is worth downloading. It gives you real time updates on water safety / sewage discharges. It's pretty eye opening / alarming, how regularly areas are not safe, but reassuring when you do get the 'all clear'. 
    • The programme was brilliant and makes me wary now of sea paddling as so many areas affected. My daughter was working at a bank when privatisation of utility companies were floated. Bank advised its staff that only x number of shares could be purchased by individuals as Government rules at that time. She reported that certain people were seeking double and triple shares. Bank told her to ignore the guidelines as those customers had thousands of pounds in the bank. She was so disgusted at the banks attitude she handed in her notice, She decided that the financial world was too corrupt. Two degrees later - she now works in the NHS as an OT in mental health unit. 
    • Out of the corner of my eye I thought I saw a white (?cabbage white?) butterfly. It's awfully early, isn't it?
