Chuka is from a well-off middle class family and went to private school. Talking about weed smoking, DJing, gangs/street crime etc is his attempt to connect with local people. He's straight down the line New Labour....and always was IMO. Nice lad...shame about the boring MOR politics though.

And in keeping with the political class, his mother's £1million Streatham home is registered in an offshore trust, which will come in handy for inheritance tax purposes.

Only the little people pay tax!
 
does anyone know what these stickers are? Have seen them on a few local lamp posts...

It's a version of the Anonymous 'logo' that various people use....e.g.

Saw a hipster in badly fitting trousers, tweed jacket and cap, tapping away ironically on his iphone, walking down my street about half an hour ago.

What's the best solution? Rentokil, or something else? I really don't want that infestation...

Send in the chavs!
 
I've been ignoring some dishes. Perhaps if I knew how to wash them self-righteously the chore would seem more appealing.

First, you need an audience within earshot, no matter if there's a door between you as long as it's not soundproofed. If they can see you so much the better, but not essential.

Now you wash up as usual, but with very angry body language and a lot more splashing and banging than usual.

As a flourish, you can dry up self-righteously too (with a generous amount of kitchen unit door slamming) if feeling sufficiently wronged.

I'm going to have to find some excuse to invite my neighbour round.

INADEQUATE:p
truly self-righteous washing-up needs to be regularly stressed by drawing deep, heavy sighs and occasionally pausing to wince and say 'ooh me back/ my bunions/ insert ageing body-part here'.

Oh sorry, can you hear me over the footie? *Slam! Crash! Bang!*

Sorry, got lost on the way to Brickers Village. *blushes*
 
I met him once. He got very annoyed when I steadfastly refused to put adverts for his website venture on urban75.
Chuka is VERY popular with one elderly member of the Brixton Society. "He is ALWAYS so clean and well-presented! Even if you see him in the street."
Doesn't say much for Steve Reed et al, does it?

Shome confusion here, surely.......
 
Not much comment on the Brixton Bugle lately. I will make amends.
The launch issue of this organ was on offer at last night's Community Police Consultative Group for Lambeth meeting at the Town Hall. In the Council Chamber as it happens. Anyone wanting to know what it feels like in all those long boring full council meetings from the councillor's perspective - you've missed your chance for now.

- the Little Brother to BRIXTONBlog.com it was sub-titled.
Edition 1 FREE and the date was: Friday,June 2012

The general "feel" of the organ was healthy and firm. Perhaps enhanced by my earlier experience of the local personage most prominently displayed on the front page - Lee Jasper.
I was "engaging", as we say in Lambeth, with the Minister of Clapham Methodist Church when Lee tried to squeeze between us. I move away slightly - and Lee looked askance.
"Oh, I didn't want you to think I was touching you up!" I said.
The minister recoiled in horror, but Lee said "Why not - it happens quite frequently!"
Nice to meet a Trot with a sense of humour.
I've had that before from him. On another occasion in the Karibu I was reading a volume entitled "Socialism" by the late Hyman Frankel.
"Is that your book, Comrade?" asked Lee
"Yes, but I'm a Liberal Democrat" quoth I.
"Well I can see you're not Labour!" says Lee
Very good on the repartee. Someone I can relate to, despite his reputation for fearsome political correctness.
