Buy one in Argos, you will then realise how much you have to shred and wonder how you lived without it. Or use fire!

Fire is tempting. Be good to see debt go up in flames!

Nothing like starting off the day by having to ask a couple of crackheads (very politely) not to light up on your doorstep ... again ... 
... then getting the "hey, sweetheart ... hey, hey ... YOU STUCK UP BITCH" treatment from a smackhead outside drugwork centre a few steps later ... 
. But the sun is shining and there's stuff to do, so I'll just moan about it on here for 1minute then get on with stuff. Really sorry to hear about the phone DietCokeGirl

Life is a horizontal fall.
Lovely video. I consider myself very lucky to live in the block right beside this club. It's really nice to be woken up by horses neighing when I leave my bedroom window open.

we have similar with people jacking up on ours and in retaliation for being asked (politely) not to do that here they leave their used needles and crap on the doorstep - at times it strains my compassion for their situation!Nothing like starting off the day by having to ask a couple of crackheads (very politely) not to light up on your doorstep ... again ...
As advised, Argos, make sure it's a cross shredder.

footballerslegs - can't you burn all the old bills? nothing as satisfying as watching a load of old paper going up in smoke, especially when they're records of all the stuff you've had to cough up for... (but obviously you need outside space for it - sorry if this isn't an option.)

Tesco has shredders.

Unfortunately there's no outdoor space, and a window sill bonfire might raise a few eyebrows, even down Stockwell. We've got a small shredder at the moment but it rattles and makes a burning smell if you do more than a couple of bits at a time. Maybe it's time to upgrade (or go paperless).

Do you mean they sell shredders or you can take stuff there to be shredded?

Street Party: July 2
Our residents' association CCTV has several times caught an ID theft gang taking away rubbish sacks on bin night.
I tear off the address and account details from incriminating documents and recycle the remainder.

Have you tried putting them through the washing machine?

They sell them. In the stationery section at the Brixton superstore.

It says girl in the story but it also quotes a tweet saying it was an incapacitated vulnerable missing person. Perhaps it needs to be clearer?

How high was this person? I'm not even making a joke - the ladder doesn't look that long.

What was the helicopter for?

(Though I'd quite like to make a joke about how high this person was, but I don't want people to hate me.)
I'm not into cars but that is a beauty, you want to drive to Brighton in that car, you want to have sex in that car when it's raining in Brighton or you don't have the money for a cheap hotel.

An FoI has shown that the current level of debt that Lambeth Council has is an astonishing half a billion pounds. This is rising each year. Interest rate in PFI payments alone stand at over £13m a year.
Over a third of Council Tax money is spent on servicing this debt, rather than going towards public services.
BBuzz piece.

Banging on about public borrowing, that piece reads like the Mail.

Cllr Graham Pycock (who did the FOI request) is leader of the Tory opposition group in Lambeth is he not?
More interesting to me - the debt of both Lambeth and Southwark was always said to be £900 million or so for each borough back in the 1990s.
Does this mean that Lambeth (which party?) had sorted some of the debt out?
Furthermore the interest rate on the debt now is minuscule compared to the 1990s. I would say whoever is running the council has nothing to worry about - unless this era of free money comes to an end - surely something the present government will do everything possible to avoid.
The most disturbing thing about the whole affair is this:
Why does the Tory opposition leader have to do an FOI to get information which should be publicly available - especially to councillors?
