I know it's probably a bit prurient, but on the other hand one does like to know what's happening in the neighbourhood, especially in the next street to mine...when I went to Peckham Rye station at 12.30pm, Bellenden was sealed with "Police line do not cross tape" from the junction with Holly Grove down to the Highshore Road roundabout, and when I came back at about 5.45 it was still closed off and still several police officers about (they looked busy so I didn't want to bother them with my nosiness). Anyone know what happened? Nothing in any news I can see.
Oh, that's odd. When I went for a run earlier yesterday (more around 9am)there was police tape outside a building on the stretch beyond the Highshore roundabout, but not the whole road and only one police officer standing guard. I assumed it had been about a break in or something as I think there are small workshops or similar?

>>You don't hear the word wholesome/unwholesome much these days, do you? Let's reappropriate it and launch a new movement combining wellbeing, food fads and moral superiority. Oh, hang on, vegans...


You should include anyone who has any belief system in there whatsoever (all religions, codes of morality etc.) as, by your interpretation, they must be 'morally superior' too.


Oh, you didn't? Because you wanted to take a cheap shot at vegans? Ah, I see.

    • No and Wes Streeting is heading in this direction because he knows the NHS is broken and was never built to cope with the demands currently being placed on it. A paid-for approach in some shape or form, and massive reforms, is the only way the NHS can survive - neither of which the left or unions will be pleased about.  
    • Labour talks about, and hopefully will do something about, the determinants of poor health.  They're picked up the early Sunak policy on smoking and vapes.  Let's see how far they tackle obesity and inactivity. I'd rather the money was spent on these any other interventions eg mental health, social care and SEN, rather than seeing the NHS as income generating.
    • I think it's connected with the totem pole renovation celebrations They have passed now, but the notice has been there since then (at least that's when I first saw it - I passed it on the 484 and also took a photo!)
    • Labour was damned, no matter what it did, when it came to the budget. It loves go on about the black hole, but if Labour had had its way, we'd have been in lockdown for longer and the black hole would be even bigger.  Am I only the one who thinks it's time the NHS became revenue-generating? Not private, but charging small fees for GP appts, x-rays etc? People who don't turn up for GP and out-patient appointments should definitely be charged a cancellation fee. When I lived in Norway I got incredible medical treatment, including follow up appointments, drugs, x-rays, all for £200. I was more than happy to pay it and could afford to. For fairness, make it somehow means-tested.  I am sure there's a model in there somewhere that would be fair to everyone. It's time we stopped fetishising something that no longer works for patient or doctor.  As for major growth, it's a thing of the past, no matter where in the world you live, unless it's China. Or unless you want a Truss-style, totally de-regulated economy and love capitalism with a large C.
