Boris Johnson moving to Dulwich Village? What have we done to deserve this? ;-)

[Dogkennelhillbilly]

Stradella Rd is all Herne Hill.

Burbage Rd north of the railway bridge is Herne Hill.

Burbage Rd between the railway bridge and Turney Rd is Dulwich, but not Dulwich Village.

Burbage Rd between Turney Rd and Dulwich Village (the street) is Dulwich Village.

Ha ha...Malumbu is back as the acting head of lounge policing!

He moves in in October doesn't he?

I stand corrected 🤣

But none of it is East Dulwich, so I agree with Malumbu that the thread should be in the lounge 🤣

And please God BJ comes nowhere near ED.

[Rockets]

Is this not a major local interest story?

I do think it is ironic that Malumbu, someone who neither lives in Dulwich (nor Southwark for that matter) suggests something to be lounged on the basis it is not in East Dulwich. By that measure should Malumbu not be confined to the lounge permanently as well.....;-)

Below the belt Rocks, I thought better of you .....

I thought I was being polite and a little self-deprecating.

I expect you will be setting up border checks

At least there might be some good garden parties - invite yourselves! He loves having people round that shouldn't really be there.

If you know, you know

We've also got Truss and Kwarteng just down the road in far East Dulwich (aka Greenwich).

I heard it was Stradella Road... but that was third hand....

 

The local scuttlebutt is that it’s this house

Overlooked like crazy from behind. I doubt they’ll move in. It’s a snipers dream.

Can't recall any former PM being shot in the last few hundred years. He's made enemies but generally not the ones that would shoot him. I even expect that those naughty Ruskies have bigger targets to poison.

The current rumour in the press is Herne Hill. Close but no coconut.

 

Stradella Road runs between Dulwich Village and Herne Hill, so if it is correct that he is moving to that road, it would depend which end of the road it was.

 

I was told by a friend with family living there that it's definitely Stradella Road

[mlteenie]

House on junction of Stradella and Burbage according to a builder who saw him arriving in black Range Rover with escort. Apparently.

I would have thought he'd packed that nonsense in now that he's married.

[Sephiroth]

That wasn’t an escort. That was someone he is helping with their computer

Escort ?

 

 

I had him down more as a Metro driver

Who cares, it's more gossiping by people who have nothing better to do about something that is unimportant and irrelevant. Probably the same crew who slagged off Poundland opening on Lordship Lane, get a life for dears sake.

[Froglander]

I’d like to know if he paid cash for it as he seemingly did for his other recent real estate acquisition. If

[wordsworth]

Really don't understand why peeps are interested in that scummy sh*t bag liar?

[Dogkennelhillbilly]

I think it's important to share information with your neighbours about criminals roaming the area.

He won't have paid a penny for it.

There'll be some billionaire Brexit backer / Tory donor / media mogul who has bought it as a "gift" for him.

Well it's useful to know where the paparazzi are going to be camped out!

[Penguin68]

He is also, or maybe instead of, buying a house in Oxfordshire. That was being quoted around the £4m mark. I wouldn't be holding my breathe to see him in SE London any time soon.

Before he entered No.10, he was camped out at Carrie's flat in Camberwell because he'd lost everything in his latest divorce. In No.10, he shook the tree among donors in an opaque scheme to decorate his residence. If after No.10 he was plonking down cash to buy multimillion pound properties when his legitimate earnings could not have been the source of those funds, that would be very suspicious.

There are reports that he has received £5 million since leaving No 10 seven months ago
