The UCKG are a commercial church whose owner is worth 1.1bn USD with more controversial stories including its' pre-election support for the new fascist leader of Brasil, and yet they are collecting money in our local Lordship Lane M&S. Surely M&S could have found a local charity free of dodgy attitudes to invite collect?

So please, this Christmas, don't give fascist sympathisers your money.

But their official charity partner is a youth group locally, surely they could be allowed to collect instead?

Thank you for alerting us to who this is, I agree, if the head of this organisation supports the vile ultra extreme views of the new Brazilian leader, Bolsonaro, I am grateful you pointed out who they are. Glad I did not give them anything. And given the origins of M + S I am very surprised they are letting this group onto their premises. Really do not feel like going in again until they are gone.

I appreciate your sincerity but that's not my point. They (the church, not the individuals in M&S) support actual fascists to help them win power and set themselves against the religions of indigenous people of the Amazon. That's Christians running a highly profitable commercial church which has been repeatedly accused of money laundering, telling people whose ancestral land it is they are wrong to hold their own beliefs. There is no local work they can do which assuages their behaviour elsewhere.

I sent a message via the website and received this from retailcustomer.services@customersupport.marksandspencer.com ...

Certainly should. And so should your mate Tommy Robinson's hate organisations and similar entities that you're quite happy to support - what's the difference in hatred apart from skin pigmentation?

    • The regulator has approved 2nd class deliveries on alternate days, excluding Saturdays. So Monday, Wednesday and Friday on week 1. Tuesday and Thursday on week 2. Don't know when it starts but in theory it will be better than the current haphazard service. Earlier this week I received bills and other items which had been in the post for 2 weeks. Definitely not the fault of the posties.
    • has lost a Bengal cat there was one wandering around Townley Road this morning - I'm assuming it is not the norm for this fellow to be out and about solo but I'm not a cat expert... IMG_5815.heic IMG_5819 2.heic
    • Hi everyone, I'm Gen, a catsitter based in Sydenham - if you're away this summer and need some care for your pets, please do consider me!  I can typically cover Sydenham, Forest Hill, Penge, Anerley, Crystal Palace, East Dulwich and parts of Peckham. If it's outside those areas, it still might be worth messaging me to see if I can help. I'm registered with Cat in a Flat, with flawless reviews – I'm happy to accept clients through there, or just directly (you can just DM me on the forum here) - whichever you're more comfortable with. I've been catsitting for a few years, and also used to volunteer for Celia Hammond. Here's my profile https://catinaflat.co.uk/pet-sitter/377081 Ping me a message if you need help or have any questions!
    • And we humans bear a lot of responsibility for creating the conditions that brought foxes into urban settings. I certainly don't regard them as pests - they are noisy little criminals, but I'm very fond of them (we have huge numbers of them in my area - I rescued a lost baby fox earlier this year). However, there are pest control companies that use humane methods to deter them and redirect them to different territories (a friend of mine works for one, but sadly for OP, I don't think this is in their catchment area).
