Buildbase is a flagship store for small businesses and DIY people and one of the few left in this part of London. The Council's borough plans are for redevelopment of the site on both sides of Blackpool Road. This would mean the end of that store there.


The plans are coming up at the Public Hearings of the New Southwark Plan in the summer. If you have a view on the future of Blackpool Road or any other part of that area you will be welcome at the community meeting on Wednesday 4th March 7-8pm refreshments from 6.30pm at Peckham Palms in Bournemouth Close (between the Atwell Estate and Rye Lane, opposite Choumert Road).


We will give an update on the plans and the Public hearings at the meeting, and gather views of those present that we can add to our collection of local views to present to the Inspectors at the Hearing.

    • And the Sainsbury’s own brand chocolate mini rolls have gone from £1.15 to £1.40 overnight, so 22%-ish. I prefer them them to the Cadbury original because they have a lot more chocolate on them, presumably because they’re made in a less advanced factory. I would think that getting the Rizla thin coating of chocolate that Cadbury’s accountants demand onto a piece of sponge is quite a sophisticated operation. Discuss.
    • Another recommendation for Leon. He was able to come out to our electrical elergency within 24 hours of me contacting him. His communication was great and whilst he could not solve our problem, he was able to perform tests to identify this and did so quickly and efficiently. He charging  is very fair and his manner very pleasant. Both of these in contrast to some experiences I have had elsewhere.    happy to put my name to recommending Leon. His number is  07707 925039.
    • Other than acting as 'interested parties' Southwark Councillors have no responsibility for water issues. And no real leverage either. Considering the complete disdain with which Thames Water treats its own Regulator, and the government, (let alone its customers) I doubt very much whether an entire battalion of councillors would have much impact. What powers could they exercise?
    • That may not be so - many on this site are experts in many areas - you yourself claim huge traffic management (or similar) expertise for instance. And I think you will find that Southwark employees are unlikely to support criticism or challenges to Southwark policy - why, you don't and you apparently neither live in, or vote in, the borough. Do you, however, work for it, as you are such a cheerleader? If not, then you are the most passionate disinterested person on this site, as regards so many aspects, not just traffic.
