What about poor incomers?


Also I'm an incomer to London too, I was brought up in Birkenhead but cos my dad is originally a Bermondsey man am I still a Northerner and when my 8yr old gets older, will she still be an ED newcomer?

poor incomers are still incomers CWALD. I too am not a wealthy incomer but I think it makes no difference. I'm an incomer to London as well - moved here from Scotland over 20 years ago.

I think our offspring will be ok as according to previous posts the requirement for being a local is living here while having secondary education.

I'm an incomer - but wish I wasn't.


We had to pay a small fortune to buy here 18 months ago although I understand that "locals" were able to buy a 3 bed house for under ?2.70 in days gone by.


If I were sitting on a house with that much equity in it I'd be laughing at incomers, not getting angry with them.

"The only incomers welcome in East Dulwich are low-incomers who went to secondary school here."


but they're not incomers if they went to school here, I'm confused. Are we talking in-comers (people who have come in from toutside East Dulwich) or incomers (people who have an income)?

Well I?m not just a mere ?incomer? but a heinous foreign invader from South Africa who has been marauding across this green and pleasant land for the last 5 years, cricket bat in one hand and bottle of brandy in the other. Taking your jobs, ravishing your woman & committing such unspeakable acts as keeping my bottled ale in the fridge and assuming the best in those I meet.


Anyway I decided I liked ED a few years ago and therefore did not knock it down and set fire to it.


Mrs Brendan comes from a place called Up North and says she will do some very unpleasant sounding things to me involving whippets and canals if I try any more of the ravishing bit.

    • It’s a 4 year old on a bike do you really think he is going 15mph. Grown adults complaining about a child who probably isn’t able to string a few sentences together says a lot about the people in this forum. If this member was hit from behind the father was probably walking behind the bike so I don’t get the point of stretching out an overreaction from a child in Nursery bumping into you. Grow up Obviously a four year old should be cycling on the pavement.
    • Malumbu,  if none of us were there, does that mean that nobody should post anything on here unless they have witnesses from the EDF? Why would someone post something like this if it  wasn't true? This is not about whether children should or should not be cycling on the pavement. There are specific issues. a) the child was out of sight of the person supposed to be caring for him b) he appears to have been  either not looking where he was going or was out of control of the bike c) if he did see that he was about to hit someone  he apparently did not give them any kind of warning  d)  a person was unexpectedly hit from behind whilst just walking along, which in my view makes him a victim e) does the title of the thread really matter as the issue was described in the first post?  f) nobody is blaming the child, they are blaming the person who should have been watching him g) do you really think it was acceptable for that person to find the situation funny? The OP was not complaining about the 4 year old. They were complaining about an adult's lack of supervision of a 4 year old who was not capable of riding a bike and who hit someone from behind with no warning. Also, apart from reading the OP more carefully, perhaps also choose your words more carefully. Jobless? Lunatic? Charming.
    • Completely jobless and lunatic behaviour coming on a forum and complaining about a 4 year old and the child’s bike riding skills. Honestly grow up
    • I have to say, I too am upset about the passing of DulwichFox. He was a real local character, who unlike me, managed to stick with ED despite all of the nauseous yuppification of the last three decades. R.I.P to foxy    Louisa.
