"I lived in Peckham. My son was born there and for much of that time, I ran one of the busiest Scout sections in the borough... I loved Peckham, was an active part of its community, and wanted to stay. "But, like many people, I eventually found I could not afford to."

Honestly insane that we cannot build 800 homes on the site of a dying shopping centre that's just a 4 minute walk from a major train station If we can't build it here, we're screwed
SUCCESS! – local people won the Aylesham case. Inspector dismissed the Berkeley appeal against refusal of planning permission. He cited English Heritage objection that it would be ‘an enormous wall of development, thus resulting in harm’. See more here: peckhamvision.org/wiki/Ayles…

How are you in this job? Beyond clueless .
I’ve been clear that Londoners shouldn’t pay the price for the corporate failures of Thames Water. Thames Water need to fix their mess, not Londoners.

Cyprus has passed a new law banning the euthanasia of stray dogs and cats, marking a major shift in animal welfare policy. The legislation focuses on sterilisation, registration, and responsible ownership as humane alternatives to population control. Animal welfare groups have welcomed the move as a long-overdue step toward protecting vulnerable strays.

NEW: After days of rejection, Baby Punch finally felt the warmth of love. Today, an adult monkey Onsing wrapped little Punch in the tightest, most comforting hug.

China: We have a train that goes at 620 mph. UK: If we Crowdfund, launch a PFI, get permission from some consultants and make the local @UKLabour MP a lord, the town hall can have some new bollards.
NEW: 🇨🇳 China’s Maglev train just clocked 620 mph — that’s faster than most commercial airplanes. This is the next phase of ultra-high-speed travel. The train is based on magnetic levitation tech and zero physical contact with the tracks.

If you’re a young person watching this clip you could be fooled into thinking Gary is wise. He’s both rich and a socialist - how is that possible? Well let me explain what ails him. He made his money playing a zero-sum game (trading). Someone had to lose in order for him to win. Most people in a capitalist society, like Daniel, create real value for everyone by playing positive sum games. That’s how most entrepreneurs get rich. Gary, despite all his gold stars on his maths tests at school, still doesn’t understand positive-games. Don’t be Gary.

Very sad and sudden news about Alex Salmond. Whatever your politic he was a tremendous politician who cared deeply. RIP

The candidate who mocked those supporting Brianna Ghey’s family after she was murdered, or the candidate who wanted to make life even more terrifying for refugee children This really isn’t the best the Conservative Party has to offer

It is another bad time for the cats of Syria. These 25 cats have all been abandoned at Ernestos in the last 24 hours. Some of them are curious, some of them are angry, some are sad and all of them are a little frightened as to what their future is now. Please spare a thought for their previous owners.Many of them will be facing the loss of their houses and facing futures in the refugee camps. We will look after these souls as we have looked after so many others. Our need for large amounts of medicine is still our most pressing and serious problem. ernestosanctuary.org/product… myevent.com/Medsandcats justgiving.com/crowdfunding/… paypal.me/ErnestoSanctuary
