Rockets Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 But it is a majority isn't it? And a quite significant one.....so why do you think the council is ignoring the 68%?

heartblock Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 2016 count used as an estimation for 2019 (no context given about where/ when and what) compared to Summer 2021 over 2 days - no data about which two days.Nope - I wouldn't except that as valid statistical analysis in research methods - fail.

goldilocks Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Lets combine these. Rockets, its a majority of respondents. Have you ever read trip advisor?@Heartblock - don't think anyone is saying its a statistical certainty - just that it shows it might have fallen AND its backed up by the counts in the latest data - again not a certainty because of the way the data is presented. However, if the council counts traffic outside the health centre AND at the previous points, then they could understand if it is correct.

heartblock Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Margy and Richard had only 35% and 38% of the vote....so most people in Village didn't want them. James and Charlie only 42% in Goose Green. Vicki a bit more.So 68% of responders want LTNs removed, but Councillors who want them to stay only got between 35 - 42% of the voters behind their policies.Next local election is going to be interesting...The Labour Party members in Village already panicking I hear...

heartblock Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 GD - traffic on EDG is still terrible, so this 'data' and 'research' is being banged out to support something that really isn't happening and I agree, opening up Melbourne South isn't going to alleviate traffic on ED Grove and may make it worse - goes to show how terrible Southwark is at road planning.The causal factors are MG North to a small degree but mainly Calton closure - but you know, those Range Rover owners of 5 bedroom 3 million pound houses deserve a quiet road - it helps then put up with the working week before dashing off to the second home in Suffolk darling..

march46 Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Disappointing to see Dulwich Alliance posters with their awful, inappropriate ?All Streets Matter? slogan are still up in a few places. You?d think they?d have a quiet word with the shopkeeper / household to ask them to remove it or at the very least replace with another poster if their apology was genuine.

heartblock Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 How many posts do you wait for before expressing your disappointment again about what was I think - we can all agree in light of BLMs brilliant campaign and the awful slogans from the racist backlash - DA's unfortunate, misguided and a very, very poorly worded poster. Is there an algorithm? Is it a bit of whataboutery to try and paint people like me, Rockets, Kid, Metalic, Legal who object to diverted traffic, more pollution and an increase in idling traffic as a 'certain sort'?

heartblock Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 I'm disappointed about the abuse that Rosamund Kissi-Debrah get's on Twitter daily from a certain sector of the LTN lobby, but you know - life is full of disappointments. In any group there are always a few arses.

goldilocks Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Thats just whataboutery. Is it wrong that Rosamund Kissi-Debrah gets abused on Twitter - yes? Is it wrong for Dulwich Alliance to have produced an 'all streets matter' poster? Also yes! Is it unquestionably unacceptable not to have intervened to have removed the posters? That'll be another 'yes'.

heartblock Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Nope - I was agreeing about arses. I was saying that there are many arses, some arses have posters that you are disappointed with and some arses call RKD 'illogical' and try and get her no platformed from anti-pollution conferences. Many arses. Big ones and smaller ones.Not whataboutering. You could always knock on their door and tell them you are disappointed?

goldilocks Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 When someone claims they're disappointed and you respond with 'what about this then' it is the very definition of 'whataboutary'.When an organisation produces material that turns out to have been 'an absolute clanger' as the kindest way of describing that inappropriate / insensitive slogan then it remains their responsibility - not that of those pointing out how crass it is to go round requesting it to be removed.

legalalien Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 I guess the theory is that traffic previously going up LL and the left into eDG will now go up mG and into eDG.

heartblock Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Nah - don't agree. Whataboutery is an attempt to discredit an opponent's position by charging hypocrisy without directly refuting or disproving the argument and I agree the posters were terrible and I can't understand anyone putting it up in their window.I was just commenting on my ongoing disappointment with arses on Twitter.Isn't it everyone's responsibility to point out poor behaviour? Maybe send a list of 'offenders' to DA and ask them to go round and 'have a word'?So back to ab - what is the main reason that you as a non-driver want roads re-opened?

heartblock Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Yep Legal - on this one I agree with G Locks yet again, I can't see Melbourne opening improving much (it will be timed school street anyway) - It's the 'square of shame' that needs to go.

The facts remain, despite your protestations, Dulwich was asked for their input on the LTNs and they responded, overwhelmingly, against the measures - these aren?t Trip Advisor trolls these are actual Dulwich residents having to live with the chaos caused by the LTNs. I appreciate you, and many others who post here defending the measures, live on the closed roads and you aren?t happy to have your gated communities returned to how they were but maybe remove the blinkers and see what?s happening at the end of your road.
