@Royal_Greenwich Bravo! You now have SIXTEEN traffic signs at the little corner of rarely busy Langdon Way and St Johns Park Road - with another 8 just yards away!
Congrats guys! They said it couldn't be done.
Always thinking of the environment eh?

New Cross was the nearest station to my old school. It is the station for Millwall FC. It feeds into The Old Kent Road - always the cheapest site on Monopoly.
I don't recall there was ever a time when people said, "Ah, let's go for a lovely stroll around New Cross."

โNEW CROSS IS HELL ON EARTHโ This London commuter describes the decline sheโs witnessing and says New Cross station is pure filth. Our capital is being destroyed. If you know, you know.

Someone posted this on Facebook...so true!
Tax his land,
Tax his bed,
Tax the table
At which he's fed.
Tax his work,
Tax his pay,
He works for peanuts
Anyway!
Tax his cow,
Tax his goat,
Tax his pants,
Tax his coat.
Tax his tobacco,
Tax his drink,
Tax him if he
Tries to think.
Tax his car,
Tax his gas,
Find other ways
To tax his ass.
Tax all he has
Then let him know
That you won't be done
Till he has no dough.
When he screams and hollers;
Then tax him some more,
Tax him till
He's good and sore.
Then tax his coffin,
Tax his grave,
Tax the sod in
Which he's laid.
When he's gone,
Do not relax,
It's time to apply
The inheritance tax.

STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY?
Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago, & our nation was one of the most prosperous in the world... We had absolutely no national debt, had a large middle class,a huge manufacturing base, and Mum stayed home to raise the kids.
What in the happened? Could it be the lying parasitic politicians wasting our money?
Oh, and don't forget the relatively new bank charges....
And we all know what we think of Bankers.
I hope this goes around the UK at least 1,000,000,000 times!!!
YOU can help it get there!

@MillwallFC How do you renew for friends & family as well oneself?

Slave reparations!
Iโm all in!
Iโve decided to personally gift ยฃ1 million Sterling to every single person my family ever enslaved.
Please form an orderly queue and bring:
โข Ironclad documents proving my family personally enslaved you (bonus points if they include my great-great-grandpaโs signature and a Polaroid).
โข Your birth certificate proving you were born before Britain abolished slavery on 1 August 1834.
โข Proof youโre still alive (the gift can only be claimed in person, no ghosts, no estates, no โmy ancestor told me soโ).
Oh, and while youโre at it, maybe swing by the local cemetery with a shovel. Iโm sure those poor souls buried since the 1800s would appreciate being dug up for their cheque. Theyโve waited long enough, right?
Look, if weโre doing โreparationsโ for historical slavery, letโs do it properly: only to the actual victims. Not their great-great-great-grandchildren who were born free in the 20th or 21st century, sipping oat milk lattes while tweeting about โtrauma.โ
This isnโt justice, itโs a cosmic-level grift.
Itโs like demanding the Roman Empire pay for the roads they built because some distant ancestor got conquered by Caesar. Or billing modern Italians for every Gaul who got turned into a slave 2,000 years ago.
Newsflash: No living person in Britain today was a slave under British law, and no living person in Britain today owned slaves under British law.
The people who suffered are dead. The people who profited are dead.
Their descendants, Black, White, Asian, mixed, whatever had zero say in it.
Chasing โreparationsโ from random taxpayers (including the descendants of abolitionists, coal miners, and people who arrived after 1834) isnโt healing historical wounds. Itโs creating new ones while opening the most hilarious Pandoraโs box in human history:
โข Should Ireland demand reparations from Britain for the Potato Famine?
โข Should Britain demand reparations from Denmark for the Viking slave raids?
โข Should Italians bill Mongols for the sack of Baghdad?
โข Should every African nation start invoicing each other for the centuries of tribal warfare and slave-trading that predated (and supplied) the transatlantic trade?
Where does the grievance chain end? 1066? The Bronze Age?
Lucy the Australopithecus getting stiffed on her cave rent?
Slavery was a universal human horror, practised by every civilisation from the Egyptians to the Aztecs to the Arabs to the Africans themselves (who sold millions into the trade).
Britain didnโt invent it.
Britain ended it, at massive cost, with the Royal Navy spending decades hunting slave ships while other empires kept right on going.
Demanding cash from people who never owned slaves, to give to people who were never slaves, isnโt โreparations.โ Itโs retroactive time-travel cosplay with other peopleโs money. Itโs the ultimate participation trophy for historical victimhood: โMy ancestor suffered, therefore I deserve a payoutโฆ even though I live in a free society with more opportunity than 99.9% of humans who ever lived.โ
If you want actual justice, how about this radical idea:
Stop obsessing over who owes whom from 200 years ago, and start judging people by what they do today. Work hard. Build. Create. Donโt inherit grievances like their family heirlooms.
The desire for slavery reparations isnโt righteous anger. Itโs lazy, entitled, historically illiterate greed dressed up as moral superiority, demanding a lottery win for a suffering you never endured, from people who never caused it.
My ยฃ1 million offer stands.
Just bring the paperwork.
And a time machine.

Oh, and fcuk you Lenny Henry.

English

@TheBritLad Why accept a knighthood if he has these views?
English

Lenny Henry wants Britain to cough up ยฃ18 trillion in reparations because
'all black British people personally deserve money for the effects of slavery.'
Funny how he skips the part where Britain was the first major power to ban the slave trade in 1807, then sent the Royal Navy's West Africa Squadron to patrol the coast for decades. They seized 1,600 slave ships and freed 150,000 Africans .. at the cost of British sailors' lives and huge expense.
Britain didn't just stop its own involvement; it actively fought to end the trade globally.
Meanwhile, in Africa today (per the Global Slavery Index), countries like Eritrea, Mauritania, South Sudan, Nigeria and others still have some of the world's highest rates of modern slavery .. forced labour, child soldiers, hereditary servitude, trafficking. Millions trapped right now.
And Lenny's own roots? Jamaica (his parents' homeland). It still has notable modern slavery issues too, including forced labour and exploitation.
So... demanding trillions from British taxpayers (including black Brits) for 200-year-old history, while African and Caribbean nations haven't fully confronted slavery's continuation on their own soil? That's not justice. That's selective outrage and hypocrisy.
Focus on ending slavery today everywhere .. not guilt-tripping one country that helped stop it yesterday.

I asked Grok (i love Grok) and it said for Millwall, over the last 30 years:
Mark McCammon, Bas Savage, Gifton Noel-Williams, Stefan Maierhofer and Josh McQuoid.

Whoโs the worst striker your clubโs ever had? ๐ ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
English

@The1885Show Very good player but has to add more than what we have. Spraying passes all over the pitch is fine if we can take an advantage of it.
English

Be interesting to get peopleโs thoughts on Barry Bannan since his arrival in January.
Back to back starts now. Would you say he improves the team? #Millwall

English

@MillwallFC @_Jampot If clubs accept revised KO times then they should give fans a % back if they canโt make it, either earlier or later KO or change of date.
English

@BBCkatyaadler We are really enjoying it. Looks like you are too!
English

@llj198 @MFC_TOMMO @MillwallTickets Must be season ticket holders to be sure of the seat being sold. Shame if this is the case.
English

@hookmfc @MFC_TOMMO @MillwallTickets Think itโs a case they are on the club database I would imagine signed up to membership scheme and most likely get them when they go on sale
English

Theses cunts selling Blackburn tickets over way over face value seatpick.com/millwall-fc-vsโฆ
@MillwallTickets sort this out mugging genuine fans off who canโt get tickets
English

@llj198 @MFC_TOMMO @MillwallTickets How can a ticket be sold without being bought in advance? Surely a dodgy site.
English

@MFC_TOMMO @MillwallTickets Fact they are selling them also before they go on sale aswell
English

@ChrisSa60089815 @PUSB_PUSB We were poor second half but still got the pts. You were set up wrong first half but improved after the break. Agyemang much better with Morris. Brewster, Szmodics & Brereton-Diaz played longer than they deserved to.
English

@PUSB_PUSB Millwall were bang average tonight. Derby missed three sitters in the 2nd half.
English

@JK_dcfc You were better with Agyemang alongside Morris. Breton-Diaz & Szmodics donโt do enough so are passengers. Play like you did last 30 mins and you have a chance of play offs.
English

@RusselloMFC @mikehunnnt88 Crama had to avoid a yellow so probably had to tread carefully
English

@hookmfc @mikehunnnt88 He was also carrying a knock. He gave Crama fits once his calf was looked at during HT
English

Whatever happens in the rest of the game, I suspect Kevin Friend might be back on the phone to Dean Holden. Pathetic decision. #hcafc

@bridportlion Crama back to right back when Taylor is back.
