Despairing at more Hackney teen-aged violence - and yet wondering if maybe, just maybe there might be some twisted justice in the world after all?
Wondering if your home’s going to be repossessed or you’re going to be able to put food on the table AND pay your bills?
I can’t fix it, but some people in the States think they know a guy who can!
Stoopid is as stoopid does: Flying in the face of common-sense and a clue, Hackney’s own swimming pool Stalinistas bring new meaning to the initials, “PC”.
And Hackney Labour wonder why people voted for Boris.
From our “you couldn’t make this shit up” department, we give you the lawsuit to end all lawsuits. And people want to blame the lawyers…
Anyhoo, PC Bitseach and I have been voting. Coming, as I do, from a country where people tend to vote for the (wo)man rather than toe a strict party line, and given that I don’t love any of the candidates, I have to say that I didn’t finally commit myself until I was stood in the booth this evening.
While it is very non-u to disclose for whom one has voted, I will say that I based one vote solely on the basis of that candidate’s hilarious excoriation of Luke Akehurst on a blog.
Who says bloggers don’t make a difference?
Oh how we laughed!
Trevor Brooks aka Abu Issatwat (sorry Izzadean) and his little pals are going down for terrorist fundraising and inciting terrorism overseas.
So long, Trev. Have a great time in the pokey. With love from all of your Hackney pals.
It appears that the Boycott Nandos people are mounting their last stand against Richard Midda. Their objective is to block Nando’s application for an alcohol licence. Given the number of pubs and licenced restaurants on Church Street already, all I have to say is, “good luck with that”.
My question is: What do you really hope to achieve? The Vortex is gone and not coming back. Richard Midda isn’t obliged to rent the premises out to your “business co-operative” or anyone of your choosing. Your victory, if any, will be pyrrhic. If not Nandos, it will be another big hitter who can afford Midda’s rent. Simple as that.
Nope. It’s Springtime in Stoke Newington with this photograph taken this morning on my way to the corner shop. And earlier this week? The jackets were off and Spring was here.
For the deluded who think the regular exploding jihadi plots are Bush Co fear spin, we give you the guys responsible for the reason you can’t bring a drink or toiletries over 100 MLs in you hand luggage.
If no one else has said it, allow me to be the first: Thank you to the Metropolitan Police for saving countless lives, again.
Click on the above to see some Stoke Newington Easter snow. It also is a reminder that the TS Stoke on Church Street used to be home to the Stoke Newington Sea Cadets.
In one of their top-ten idiotic moves, the friend of children and “the people”, Jules & Co’s Hackney Labour pulled the rug out from under the cadets and tried to sell the TS Stoke to developers in 2005.
The cadets moved to Islington. And the TS Stoke? It sits abandoned and presumably still owned by Hackney Council.
