She is around but Joe public is being kept at a distance.
I've heard that the Council is formulating a "Serious Youth Violence Ten Year Plan" based on the the Scottish Violence reduction programme.
Meetings on it have started. But the community has yet to be asked what they think.
The meetings are what was termed "hierarchy" meetings. Meeting of top police officers, senior managers in housing senior managers in social services and managers in Council services.
So this Scottish violence reduction idea ,which is meant to deal with this problem like a public health issue. has at this time no community input.
Its top down social programme.

Just noticed police search teams leaving the garden of the Domino Club.
Update: Brixton’s Coldharbour Lane remains closed after Saturday’s murder. Major bus disruption in the area
Did hear that police were asking people their name and address in order to get into and out of the cordon and writing it down. Didn't happen to me. Anyone else?
The photo in the Buzz piece looks like that was happening.
Intrusive imo. Nor do I think the police have to the right to do that.

Pretty sure that's what I saw this afternoon at both ends.

Yes that's what I heard. It was happening from Monday. I missed it as left early and came back late when road had been re opened.
I'm not happy about this. My partner said they were noting down names and addresses.
This is typical police general intelligence gathering.
I don't think they even said why they were noting down this info.

There was quite a lot of community engagement at this end when the kid was stabbed in the Tulse Hill estate. From the police and the council. There are a number of projects that already exist that have been spoken to round here, and there were a series of public meetings- they invited people through local schools and activities.

Two men with briefcases and suits walk down Coldharbour Lane. Shock horror. Never been seen before.....

Did editor say it had never been seen before? I don’t think so. I mean we all know Donal MacIntyre did it back in the early 00s.

I wholeheartedley agree with your viewpoint
I seem to remember doing it a few times in 1999.

At 19.00 on Saturday 29 June 2019, a Section 60 (Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994) Stop and Search power was authorised by one Inspector Sims "owing to various incidents of violence and intelligence received".
This period of authorisation expired at 04.00 on Sunday 30 June 2019 and covered the area outlined within the red lines (see below).

Has Inspector Sims (or anyone else from the Metropolitan Police) given details of what this actually achieved?

Yes, it is all publicly available information. Why don't you Google this stuff sometimes, eh?

Perhaps this lot can give an account to the community? The area seems mainly Larkhall Ward - and these are the councillors:

Thank you for drawing attention to this information.
The figures to which you draw attention cover the period to the end of May 2019.
It is unclear how this explains what the operation between 19.00 on Saturday 29 June 2019 and 04.00 on Sunday 30 June 2019 achieved.

Yes, it's always been like that hasn't it?
Oh wait.
Sorry that the point has flown straight over your head, although elsewhere people seem to have no problem understanding what such an image represents.

God, that show was an embarrassment. He was so desperate to get mugged to prove his point that Brixton was full of nasty people that he may as well gone around with a big sign saying, "PLLLLLEASE MUG ME!"

Yes, I'm not very bright, so please explain what it represents....

You know how Cliff Richard had a walking talking living doll? Well, these are walking talking totems of gentrification.
Can you work out why some locals may not be thrilled to see them?

It’s not like you to label someone without knowing them or speaking to them.
I’m local. I’m cool with people walking down Coldharbour Lane, irrespective of what they wear .

Actual LOL at even more irrational, frothy-mouthed apoplexy than usual.
If being employed (regardless of whether your role requires that a suit be worn), if taking care of one's appearance and if walking down a street in Brixton rather than racing down it in a car at 50 mph are all now seen as negative, there is clearly no hope for the next generation who desperately need positive role models to demonstrate that there are viable alternatives to the stabbings, crashes and drunken behaviour that presently afflict Coldharbour Lane.

You understand what 'totemic' mean, yes?
Oh I see. You’re saying that suit wearers are a characteristic representation of gentrification?
