gudi Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Hello,I'm a producer at BBC London TV News looking at a story for tomorrow on burglaries, and how few arrests there are. I know Dulwich was recently highlighted in the papers as a hot spot in London for burglaries. I also live in the area so know there are plenty of victims. Is there anyone who'd be happy to go on camera and talk about their experience tomorrow (Thursday 28th Jan)?Please get in touch.ThanksGudrun ([email protected])Newsroom: 02077650920 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/91875-burglaries-in-dulwicheast-dulwich/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackcurrant Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Why not do Kensington instead, it was at the top of the chart too. The Robin Hood angle is more fun, the people are weirder and the houses will look more interesting.

Dr De Soto Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Dear Gudi, please note it was Dulwich VILLAGE (and the rest of SE21) that scored so high in the reported burglaries table. East Dulwich was a long way down the list. Don't want BBC London tarnishing SE22 with the same brush...

gudi Posted January 28, 2016 Author Share Posted January 28, 2016 True Dr de Soto, but there are a lot of reports on this forum about burglaries and I've spoken to people who feel that in East Dulwich it's also got "out of control" and that the area is being specifically targeted. I'm not covering the story today (a colleague may be), but will make sure a distinction is made about the two areas (although only separated by yards).

Abe_froeman Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 The report on Dulwich Village will be a week old tomorrow. How can that be considered 'news'?!

nxjen Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 "I thought SE21's Dulwich Park was viewed as a key benefit of living in ED."Peckham Rye Common and Peckham Rye Park partially in SE22 are more of a key benefit of living in ED though I guess it depends on which side of Lordship Lane you live.

heartblock Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Hi Gudi, as a reporter you probably know that the report highlighted that SE21 was an area with high claims on insurance policies for burglary and SE22 had an active forum where residents informed each other of burglaries.You do understand that this does not equate to a 'hot spot'.

Duvaller Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Yeah, go away Gudrun. You are a typical BBC type that always looks for an anti-police angle that doesn't exist so that you can blame it on what you say are cut backs on the police budget.Go find a real story.

rabbitears Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Remember that burglary in England is closely related to drug addiction. You can't arrest your way out of contagion - you can't cure addiction by sending people to substance abuse hothouses (jails).http://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/20110218135832/http:/rds.homeoffice.gov.uk/rds/pdfs04/r249.pdf Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/91875-burglaries-in-dulwicheast-dulwich/#findComment-954750 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew1011 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Apparently there's been a spate of burglaries recently in Playfield Crescent (SE22).

heartblock Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 an unbiased report on burglary in London using ED and the Village as examples would be fine, I don't have an issue with that, but starting a post using the term 'hot spot' sounds more Daily Mail than an investigative report.

The Gruniads are saints by comparison - allbeit misguided, naive idealists, but well-intentioned.As for Farage, he is the only one who says it like it is ... unlike the other politicians who are gutless wimps out to line their own nests.

uncleglen Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Here here, Green Gooseand rabbitears I was commending Duvaller on the suggestion made to gudrun- do pardon me if i went off topic in my loathing of the Biased BC. Anyway after being harassed by reporters some years ago I have seen them for what they are- they are not after the absolute truth if they can put some kind of sensationalist spin and political bias (if that's their particular bag), on it Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/91875-burglaries-in-dulwicheast-dulwich/#findComment-955528 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ_EDF Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Not that I particularly want to get involved with the above, but (deep breath) . . . having been the victim of a break in / car theft earlier last year while my pregnant wife and I slept upstairs, burglary in SE22 feels pretty "hot" to me. Given the police's general lack of interest (even when the car / DNA evidence was found / obtained), it feels to me like something that would be worth commenting on . . .

AJ_EDF Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Don't get me wrong tomdhu, they've identified the guy who did it, they already had his DNA on the database, the police just aren't doing a whole lot about it!

kibris Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 If theirs not a problem with burglaries in the East Dulwich area or Dulwich Village area then stop moaning about them on this site when it happens. This man is only doing his job.
