Has the portly African gentleman with apparent mental health issues who used to beg for money along Norwood Road been eradicated at the request of the more recently arrived ethnic majority?That guy who always begs around Tulse Hill, the dude with the dreadlocks that he always swings round his head, technically mugged me outside the station last night the cheeky bugger! I wouldn't give him a fag and he got very aggressive and snatched my bacci out of my hand and ran off. I was quite shocked by it all as he is normally not particularly threatening. All sympathy and empathy I ever had for him has now gone.

I saw him just two weeks back. I don't get who 'more recently arrived ethnic majority' are. Please explain.

I did say it was fair enough if alfro hadn't seen it in my first reply to them.

Leave the gun. Take the cannoli.
He's still around.

Thank you to all who provided confirmed sightings. I was curious whether the more recently arrived ethnic majority had requested his eradication.
I hope he gets help for his issues before he either is harmed or does harm.

"More recently arrived"? "Requested his eradication"?!

How precisely might somebody 'request his eradication'? What does that actually even mean?
This is a pretty diverse place and I think you'll see from discussions up there that we all love living here (though sometimes shitty things happen and we discuss them as a community tends to do, as in post no #6274). Your apparent habit of dropping into threads and leaving one-off and provocative comments and then rarely engaging in dialogue is interesting - it seems you want to provoke but then subsequently have nothing useful to say or add to any discussion. It's not that your comments aren't poignant (because often they are), but you do yourself no favours by being wilfully obscure and then failing to engage. And you know nothing of the background or motivations of any of the community that post here.
What would you like to discuss, specifically, about Tulse Hill and its residents? We're listening.

Hey if you have real concerns for this man's welfare and safety then it may be a good idea to give the local community mental health team a shout. Horrible to think there's someone in our neighbourhood suffering and in need of help and not getting it.
Or even walk down the fucking road and talk to him, see if he's ok. You'd be surprised at the impact a "hello" or a handshake can have.
It seems like me that you have no concern for his wellbeing but want to make some form of comment about the ethnic profile of the Norwood Road, using this man to further your cheap comments.
This board is so understanding of every ethnicity, gender, sexuality, ability that it's like the Judean People's Front at times. But it's only people sitting at screens. Why don't you go and do something instead of preaching to the converted?
If you want to, send me a pm and we'll go to him together.

Recently arrived ethnic majority?

Leave the gun. Take the cannoli.
Admittedly there has been an mild influx of beards and sockless ankles, and the fearful middle classes have taken to venturing out of their safe havens alot more now they have Feast, Knowles, the North Wood and The Tulse Hill Hotel; places where the working classes don't go..., but I have yet to see much of a shift in the ethnic make up of the area.

Well said.

...and a class shift...wasn't it a bit uber-posh back then?
