    The mayor of London has told the companies not to deliver parcels to offices as they are clogging up the roads, he also wants stores to stop playing Christmas music in case it offends any one........Meanwhile criminals are getting away with murder and robbing the public

    Online shoppers have been urged to stop having goods delivered to their workplace in an effort to reduce traffic congestion in London.

    Sadiq Khan, the mayor, revealed plans to install parcel collection points at Tube stations, supermarkets and corner shops in suburban residential areas so that people can collect parcels on their journey to and from work.

    He blamed the 2 per cent increase in the number of vans in the capital in the past year on online delivery trucks. He has also criticised the growing number of taxis and minicabs.

    The mayor rejected claims that the cycle superhighway that runs along the Embankment on the north side of the Thames was adding to the congestion. “The evidence is clear to me: no it doesn’t.…

    Yes I’m aware of that. Living in London we have to put up with dangerous pollution levels on a daily basis. I’ve looked into the city from my house and seen it enveloped in a black cloud of smog. A full out ban would be more useful and use the underground as a delivery system.

    I’m still up for a riot in Canary Wharf tho. The banks are the ones truely robbing the people blind, while deceimateing the worlds natural reserves.

    Because of mans relationship with dogs, there is no doubting there’s something special about dogs and humans. And my main gripe is the way they do eat them in say China, they boil them alive gradually as they believe this gives the meat extra flavour. That is * beyond sick just as their beliefs in other * about animals and medicinal benefits.

    Not a dog lover then?

    People can say it’s not ok because of the relationship they have with dogs. They are, in the majority, domesticated animals and for millions of people they are part of the family.

    I’ve lost two dogs in my lifetime and the grief hits you like a train.

    I don’t expect people to understand if they don’t have this experience. There will be a Marty McFly posting on a Talk Chongqing Lifan who has the opposite opinion to me.

    Had my dog at the vet on Friday mate as she has been really not well recently, anyway been told she’s intolerant to the food I was giving her. The vet told me to try a new food which is going to cost me about £150 a month, she will get that food even if I need to go without myself.

    No bother mate, sorry for being a cheeky * but she’s like one of the family. And I’ve said if she is suffering I would have her put down as it’s best.
