Tulse Hill news, chitter chatter and gossip

This was just posted on the West Norwood Facebook group about the White Hart.

"The White Hart on Station Approach Tulse Hill will be run by the group who own the Prince of Peckham,owned by Clement Ogbannaya. It will be called The Queen of the South. Great news, that area has such potential. A very welcome addition to Tulse Hill"
Is there any any new info on that as that was announced two years ago

They had planning permission for this a while ago, must have paused their plans due to the pandemic. Great to see a closed pub reopening, and I'm sure the Prince of Peckham lot will do a good job. The Railway could do with some competition too, now they have seen fit to charge £5.50 for their cheapest, 4% pint of lager.

That's great, Prince of Peckham is a gem and they will do very well expanding to Tulse Hill. It's been derilict way too long.

If the prices are anything like the Peckham one, I don't think it will be especially cheap. But it has a great vibe
 
Anyone with information about the stabbing of a 17-year old child on Thursday 17 March 2022 at around 3.30 p.m. on Elmcourt Road, just as children were coming out of Elmgreen School in the same road, should call 101 with the reference 4381/17MAR. Information can also be provided to Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
 
Would be good if there was a husting but no other party can really put the effort into running a campaign in either of the new wards from the old Tulse Hill ward. It's so safe Labour
 
I've had no dealings with either but wife has and thought they seemed nice? Not a good indication of how they'll deal with being cogs in Lambeth Labour but that's probably true for all
 
Some information on all of the candidates here.

The Labour party and Green party seem to be putting in the most effort, although I haven't received any leaflets yet or seen anyone door knocking.
 
Are the Greens doing anything? I can't imagine they would be, given how hard Labour is fighting them in Gipsy Hill. I was attempting to get a train from Tulse Hill on the weekend and saw a whole bunch of Labour people from the area gathering to go together to Gipsy Hill.
 
Neither Lib-dem nor Cons seem to have troubled "who can I vote for" with their info. (although I did get a tory leaflet through the door at weekend, which said they would remove the LTNs + they allow a self-serving liar to be their leader. so they are a no. Not going to break the habit of a life time and start voting for them at this stage)

So between Greens (Cato cycle helmet) and Lab apparatchiks (possibly): what is possibility of a vote for Green actually doing any good?. Or does one hold ones nose and tick Lab "cooperative". ?
 
And why no "fringe" candidates? I voted for Artificial Best last time round, and was saddened they didn't make the cut

As you point out it's a bit of David vs Goliath in terms of resources. Labour is much better funded.

It's hard to imagine Greens getting much of a foothold in St Martin's, but they are the official opposition on a borough level so if anyone can put up a fight then I guess it will be them.

They were 2nd to Labour in 2018 in the old Tulse Hill ward.
 
Excuse me if I'm out of area, but I saw a scurrilous allegation on Twitter which said Cllr Marcia Cameron owned a right-to-buy property which she rents out - presumably at market rent.

She's running again. Is it true wot was on Twitter? - and if so is this form of landlordism now the accepted norm for Labour councillors?
 
I wonder which restoration work will be completed first: that being carried out at the Notre-Dame de Paris, or the facade work on the two-storey property at 170 Norwood Road which scaffolding continues to block the bus lane...
Looks like an ever extending "permission to block the lane" is in force
from December

Last I bothered looking it was now extended to around now - and it ain't finished yet


What practical (if any) sanctions to TFL have to make them actually sort it out, do you think?
 
In further good news for us Tulse Hillers, the scaffolding that has blocked the bus lane on Norwood Road for what it feels like a lifetime is finally being taken down. So very soon northbound cyclists and buses will be able to use it again, and pedestrians will no longer have to walk on the busy road dodging vehicles.

I thought it would never happen in my lifetime. Next you will be saying that the White Hart has found a new tenant.
 
I was told this morning that the stripped out "Haircut Sir" has a sign outside saying it is being refurbished - as a barber.
Is this true? Presumably if it is it will be charging 5x the old price!
