There has been an announcement that over ?800 million has been either granted or provisionally granted to high streets to bounce back.


The old Kent Road, an area that was earmarked for massive regeneration and house building, received ?9.6 million.

Is this the right area for Southwark to be focusing on now that the additional funding from the tube expansion has evaporated ? Or should they have looked at diverting the funds towards struggling town centres like Peckham that are crying our for improvements in facilities ?

Spartacus - what improvements in facilities does peckham require in your opinion (I?m assuming you mean rye lane shopping area, pls correct me if mistaken) ?

Personally I like the whole Rye Lane vibe and prefer the relaxed scene there, when compared to (say) LL !!

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By HeadNun · Posted

      I'm certainly not surly - it's Friday, so I'm in a delightful mood.  As Earl Aelfheah said, the money has to come from somewhere. But Labour new that hiking fuel as well as employee NIC in would be a step too far - for businesses and consumers. It was the right decision for this moment in time. Suggesting that someone who's against fuel duty increase on this occasion is against and fuel duty full stop is quite a leap. Why do you demonise everyone who doesn't think that owning a car is a cardinal sin?  I'm not sure using Clarkson as an example of your average farmer holds much weight as an argument, but you know that already, Mal.

      Hope it's making others smile too! I don't know the background or how long it's been there 😊

      If you are against the increase in fuel duty then you are surly against fuel duty full stop.  It has not kept up with inflation, I'm talking about getting it back on track.  Ultimately road user charging is the solution. Labour will probably compromise on agricultural land inheritance by raising the cap so it generally catches the Clarksons of the world who are not bothered about profits from land beyond, in his case, income from a highly successful TV series and the great publicity for the farm shop and pub

      Change to Charter North 6th Form Admissions?

      By Pugwash · Posted

      Were things much simpler in the 80/90s? I remember both my girls belonging to a 6th Form Consortium which covered Sydenham Girls, Forest Hill Boys and Sedgehill off Bromley Road. A level classes were spread across the 3 schools - i remember Forest Hill boys coming to Sydenham Girls for one subject (think it was sociology or psychology ) A mini bus was provided to transport pupils to different sites, But I guess with less schools being 'managed' by the local authority, providers such as Harris etc have different priorities.
