Not sure if there is a link for it anywhere, but it's about the drug problems and St Agnes Place eviction.
Anyone else seen it?

Glad to see him putting his considerable energies to constructive use.Mrs Magpie said:Blimey, he's been busy! He's got an article about the yuppification of Brixton in this month's New Internationalist and all...turning into a regular little Keith Flett isn't he?
some years ago, i encountered a senior standard journo. the chat turned to the letters page, and i was told that on occasion they made them up.editor said:Glad to see him putting his considerable energies to constructive use.
Mind you, we've seen how desperate the Standard is for letters here!![]()
no, he's a big cheese (or a cheese, at any rate) in the world of socialist history.bluestreak said:i always thought keith flett was the name of a group of letter writers, kind of like italian anarchists all call themselves luther blissett.

No, 40p I'm afraid, you tight bastard, anyway it's too long for me to type up and I am not sure it's allowed anyway, they could do the Editor for copyright I think.Pickman's model said:is it 20p today?
That is a funny thing indeed - they could do it themselves. Surely the Evening (sub) Standard are quite talented in making stuff up, since they do it every single day?Donna Ferentes said:No, but here's a funny thing - the Standard phoned me up yesterday and asked if I'd like to write them a letter on the subject of policing in Brixton. I said I no longer lived in Brixton or indeed in Lambeth and didn't read the Standard ...

he also did a lot of good stuff here once, and started The Thread Which Made U75 (briefly) Famous - see 'guns/crack/brixton etc'zenie said:Yes indeed a good letter - seems like he's doing things right for a change as I only ever heard bad stuff about him on here
I take it there's no comment on it though?
