ICTChris Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/aug/02/poorer-children-warned-off-playing-in-shared-spaces-in-london-development?CMP=share_btn_tw Story that sums up some fantastically awful modern British traits. Decelopers build flats having undertaken to provide play areas, don’t provide them. Children in social housing aren’t allowed to play in private communal gardens. Children play in corridors. Neighbours record children playing and families are then threatened with eviction. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Tory leadership contest has been like seeing a reel of Marvel trailers for films ten years down the pike, right down to the overt fascism. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Quote When families asked where their children could play City of London wrote back that they were not aware of “any obligation for the developer to provide play space”. Putting families into developments with no spaces for children to play in the area, and issuing threatening letters when Karen down the hall complains about the kids playing in the corridors. Sounds perfectly cromulent to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jean King Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 The program also has leisure time post de-radicalisation with trips to the local Spoons to watch this stripper while pouring warm flat beer down your throat.

The Crinan Canal has 15 locks and is crossed by seven bridges, six swing bridges and a retractable bridge so whereas this may be pedantry in extremis, it isn't separated 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jean King Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 That is beyond sick. That is absolutely ridiculous that anyone never mind an MP is using the final hours of a young person's life as a cheap publicity stunt and photo opportunity. She is scum. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy Days Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Archie's sister-in-law Ella Carter described his death as "barbaric", and said there "is nothing dignified about watching a family member suffocate. I know it must be hard to accept that someone's life is over but as far as I am concerned the "Barbaric" thing about this is how the wee boy had no dignity in death. The whole affair was turned into a circus and the actions of the mp are outrageous. Funnily enough I said to the other half that this is getting to the Hannah Moore stage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
