Now in Camberwell Leisure Centre and a great deal easier to find, in unforgettably named Artichoke Place SE5 8TS. There's a photo here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/events/12650/ for those who don't know what it looks like. We've usually got a Dr Bike banner but regrettably the guy with the banner seems to have gone away and taken it with him. So no banner. But otherwise the same great service, and friendly knowledgeable mechanics.

This is a drop-in, not a course. What they teach depends on what bike problems are brought in. They fix what needs fixing and explain what they are doing as they do it. If you know you need parts (like wheels) then bring them with you. Like everything we do, it is free and open to all. No ID required.

This service is brought to you by great volunteers from Southwark Cyclists. We are the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign. Our website is here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk with full details of everything we think and do. For more info tweet @southwarkcycle, email [email protected] or text me on 07842 640 207. I probably won't know the answer but I can generally find out.

  I am quoting what a Tory SPAD said about Jenrick. I've not analysed Jenrick's exact words but it sounds like he is going down the GB News route which if true is rather sad. This was picked up by the media so you can follow this up - an article below, the Mail and Telegraph may have alternative takes. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/jan/05/badenoch-defends-jenricks-remarks-about-people-from-alien-cultures I could stereotype and generalise about many cultures, races, nationalities and religions but I try not to. I'd rather hear in more detail from a Pakistani community leader and the like rather than a white privileged politician.

  I think it should be free and they should pay £1 for every one on target. Proceeds to go towards a Xmas bonus for the street cleaners.

  Sorry Malumbu, but to say that Pakistani men are being 'demonised' is disgraceful. The men in the rape gangs were predominantly from Pakistan - that is a fact. To suggest pointing this out is victimisation totally undermines the horror that the predominantly white young girls suffered at their hands. The men exploited this, using their nationality as a shield, and told their victims they wouldn't be believed. And they were right - some of he brave people who did call it out lost their jobs. To deny there is a strong cultural element to this, so as to protect your fear of being seen as anything other than liberal and progressive, is disingenuous at the very least. And to suggest that calling it out is far right is insane, I'm sure plenty women and girls of Pakistani heritage would agree. That Jenrick and Badenoch have picked this up and used it as a political football is a really disappointing start to the year, though at least today's debate in PMQs was respectful in its tone. But for the victims to have this glibly brought up and used to bait the other side just goes to show how little some of the protagonists really care about them.
