But then there will be a boom when rents go down?It's going to be a bloodbath in the hospitality sector in Brixton and the north of the borough what with rents.
It won't be a 'boom' for the low paid workers who have lost their jobs and most likely their homes, or the small venues that have closed permanently, or the independent restaurants and businesses that have folded. But I'm sure the hedge fund managers and developers will do very nicely out if it in the end.But then there will be a boom when rents go down?

they could certainly do it with mortgages and probably will. they could make it illegal to evict people for not paying their rent and/or pay their rent if it's not covered by the renters still working etc. they could do a lot of things (see the French) or just sit on their handsNot that the Tory scum would be remotely interested or willing to do it, but could the government theoretically force banks and landlors to suspend mortages and rent payments if a lockdown is enforced?
I think you're a disruptive, deceitful, dishonest shit. Takes all sorts, eh?I think you complained every time a new bar opened. Now you’re going to complain every time one closes.
What do they intend to do with all the pasta that makes it more attractive than everything else?
That’s gonna be fucking rammedIt's also in the foodie thread, but the Brixton Underdog has decided to go for the St Patrick's Pound and launch their new bar tonight. I sense not everyone will be impressed.
Brixton Underdog bar and kitchen opens tonight, 17th March 2020
It’s probably the worst time imaginable to open a new bar with the devastating coronavirus crisis taking hold, but the new Brixton Underdog bar has decided to fly in the face of government ad…www.brixtonbuzz.com
It's going to be a coronavirus conga!That’s gonna be fucking rammed
It's going to be a coronavirus conga!
Looks like they will be getting a Business Rate holiday for 2020/21.Not that the Tory scum would be remotely interested or willing to do it, but could the government theoretically force banks and landlors to suspend mortages and rent payments if a lockdown is enforced?
As someone who has come to this board recently, can I ask, is that really necessary?I think you're a disruptive, deceitful, dishonest shit. Takes all sorts, eh?
Perhaps you've missed all his his obvious trolling activities to date - I had to delete a load of posts in reaction to the shit he tried to stir up in the Brixton coronavirus thread - but most boards would have sent him packing a long time ago. I guess I'm just a wooly liberal. Too soft, I tell ye!As someone who has come to this board recently, can I ask, is that really necessary?
No, I hadn't seen that.Perhaps you've missed all his his obvious trolling activities to date - I had to delete a load of posts in reaction to the shit he tried to stir up in the Brixton coronavirus thread - but most boards would have sent him packing a long time ago.

Really? Surely it will have less impact on "Brixton" than the loss of The Atlantic in order to have that bastion of gentrification the Dogstar.They've just spent (by their standards) a fair bit of cash doing up the place and improving some bits of the PA, so I'd be surprised if they're moving in anytime soon, although it wouldn't surprise me. Losing the Dog to a wanky exclusive private club really would be the death knell of Brixton.
You may get that impression but its bot correct. The efficiency rating of Brixton Underground is high.The station must already be running over capacity given the immense growth in visitors/tourists/city boy flat buyers etc., but the station does seem to have more downtime than many others.
Ahead of schedule! Respect!
By nu-Brixton standards, the Dogstar can claim to be something of an old school bar that's way more affordable than most - it's been here for 25 years after all - but if it goes under, what will replace it will almost certainly be unaffordable, elitist and serving an even narrower demographic. And I can't get all misty eyed about the loss of the Atlantic either.Really?

So are the queues.You may get that impression but its bot correct. The efficiency rating of Brixton Underground is high.
I lived on a farm with a similar shit cable. Some person or weather pulled it down..it got replaced with the latest gadgetry.I agree they are nice when Ive had a problem. But its hard to get it solved.
In my case the line outside my house is so old when it rains I get faults. The line outside comes under BT Openreach. That is the way it works.
They should reallly imo replace the whole cable. All they do is patch it up. Ive had not internet twice this winter. BT Openreach have patched it up twice.
What is worse is that Phone Coop cant send their workers. Outside it comes under BT. Who are shit.
The internet and landline infrastructure in this country is antiquated and not up to standard. Im sure the copper cable outsided my house hs been in place for decades.
I miss the Atlantic and I'm not alone. The DogStar really was at the forefront of gentrification in the area. It paved the way for Soho house.By nu-Brixton standards, the Dogstar can claim to be something of an old school bar that's way more affordable than most - it's been here for 25 years after all - but if it goes under, what will replace it will almost certainly be unaffordable, elitist and serving an even narrower demographic.

Not so much now? Escalator works are not easy. Completed within schedule as well.So are the queues.
