Yes and people really need to start questioning why the media hate him.
-
I thought it was really working as well, busy every night of the week. I notice people are literally queueing up to get into Max's now, good to see.
-
Rattle, Grenn and Holborn being in agreement sounds like an ominous Nostradamus prediction.

The Royal Mail sell off was a disgrace, we can see the physical assets being sold off for flats but I suspect we cannot see that they are robbing the pension fund blind and loading the company with debt as well.
-
@therattle rattle you are quite right in that I did attack a previous article put up on this site, that was because said report was (IMO) badly written clickbait, full of non-facts and written by an obviously funded Think Tank who had very recently …

@overandin who are the nutcases in the video, people are arguing for both sides? The point is that people were not allowed into the (unadvertised) meeting so have no voice. Articles from Forbes and quotes from Professor QuackQuack from the "Active…

Yes, then let's nationalise the other services as well. I got the train to Birmingham a couple of years ago when the line was forced into nationalisation, it cost SIX QUID and (brace yourself) even ran on time. I believe it is back in the hands of…

The barbeque ban is a direct quote from an Islington councillor... Here is some more 'democracy' in action involving that very same person. That article from Forbes acknowledges that there are studies providing the opposite of what they have ma…

Out of curiosity, do you think the change will benefit the man in the street or the train operators?
-
Go and ask the people on Myddleton Road what they think and then see if The Guardian will publish it.

When Khan has forced all of the old cars out of London do people think he will mothball the cameras and lovely income or do they think he will then target other vehicles? And return train tickets are being stopped as well by all accounts, so train …

Highbury Corner has constant traffic gridlock from all directions and the time it takes to get through all of the sets of lights (on a bike or driving) is much greater than before. Re Liverpool Road, the square speedbumps encourage drivers to strad…

It is not just LTNs either. Cllr Rowena Champion, Islington Council’s executive member for environment, air quality, and transport, said: “We’re determined to create a cleaner, greener, healthier borough for all, and reducing air pollution – which…

Recent studies have shown that we could achieve Net Zero by 2025 if everyone just ate a CEO or Hedge Fund Manager.

Marlborough Road is wrecked every morning due to the School Street which only covers Sussex Way (and the school is 10 yards away). Liverpool Road is exactly the same and Canonbury is now a car park thanks to the LTN and "improvements" made to Highb…
-
As are school streets when every other street 10 yards away is gridlocked.
-
Islington sent the reminders out circa 6 months late and then said that they did send them so people were liable. I have a reminder set on my computer anyway and renewed in time so I'm not sure how the appeals went on that one but there is no lega…

The best post ever was when someone threatened to ring their defamation lawyer over a random sarcastic comment. Talking of changes Brave Sir Robin has definitely found it's groove now they've stopped the ridiculous table service policy and in my sa…

What does back to blue mean, the weather? Anyway it was a lovely day today, I'm liking the layout now it's relocated although it makes it far too easy to gorge on draft cider, wraps, samosas and cinnamon buns, lucky that I was cycling or you never …

Nor have I now I think about it, is it the same owner (remote operator from memory)?
-
Sew in Crouch End was brilliant, expensive but done properly, they have other branches apparently so may be worth a look. I got a zip replaced in my jacket by one little shop on Hornsey Road and it wasn't great.
-
I was being considerably overcharged once, then i noticed the cashier had the bag leaning on the scale, could have been an accident. I regularly notice that a pepper may be (say) 20p but a tomato of the equivalent weight would be £2, it may of cour…

She had pesto and cheese last week so i am not surprised that they sold out. Actually I have just remembered that when I was in Denmark I was addicted to a pastry called a Frøsnapper, it was awesome, I wonder if it's worth asking her to make some.
-
Back open tonight. I didn't see the actual notices but a lot of rent arrears are still protected under lockdown legislation so it sounds pretty harsh from the landlord.
-
I attended around midday and all of the Danish bakery items were sold out as well! That local honey is amazing.
-
Oh, that's news to me, well the M25 was a total nightmare both ways, I've no idea how people do that every day.
-
Yeah I can't work that speedbump out either, I wonder if some mega cable runs below it. I had to drive round the M25 earlier, what a total mess, which I presume is people avoiding the A406 now it's in the charging zone.
-
Yes but the massive potholes in shared bus / cycle lanes are so dangerous and definitely cannot be blamed on cars. I actually find junctions with no lights or roundabouts much more functional for cycling and driving, the amount of people that turn…
-
I find the ease at which cycle lanes are closed (and normally veer straight back onto the carriageway) simply bewildering, it makes cycling more dangerous than if they were not there in the first place. How hard would it be to keep a small side la…

They really need to add some branding or remove the old canopy, I thought it was simply a new version of Doms before reading this, I had a look and actually it seems like a great concept, I hope they make it.
