EditorialGovernment needs

to step in to helpcommuters

THE GOVERNMENT, orwhat is left of it, needs totake urgent action to allow

commuters of the SouthernRailway and Thameslink servicesto get on with their working lives. After weeks of delays andcancellations, some passengers arenow complaining that their actual jobsare on the line as they struggle to getinto work. Labelled by many as theworst rail company in Britain, it hasmade the unprecedented decision tointroduce an emergency timetable,allowing it to cancel another 350 trainsa day. As a war of words rages on betweenthe rail company and unions over highlevels of staff sickness and strikes, in arow over the role of conductors,passengers are left high and dry.Despite imposing fines amounting to£2 million, the situation seems only toworsen. Maybe the only way to stopthis in the long-term and to show otherrail companies that they cannotmismanage their services to this levelis for the Government to do what wasdone on the East Coast and allowDirectly Operated Railways to run theroutes under public control and in theinterest of the general travelling public.

Gomer’s deathhighlighted

community spirit

DESPITE FAILING to find thefamily of the much-lovedMeurig Gomer Wyn-Roberts,

his funeral this week was a shiningexample of how well a community cancome together. Better known as Gomer, this manmountain was respected by the people ofBermondsey for rolling his sleeves up andjoining in local events like Christmas fairsand fundraisers for charities like Help forHeroes. Regularly dressing up as Santa for thekids in the Blue Market Square, Gomer didhis little bit to be part of a community spiritmany claim is disappearing. His friendswere determined that his untimely passingwould not go unnoticed and fought hard tofind family members. The Old Bank pub paid into andspearheaded a fundraising appeal to givehim a fitting funeral. For weeks the policeand the coroners’ court did little tocommunicate what was happening to hisbody and how much effort was being putin to find his family. After Albins funeraldirectors stepped in, friends of Gomer wereable to take charge and they did him proud. If and when his family are found they willhave the comfort in knowing that eventhough he died alone above a pub inPeckham, he was loved by those whoknew and obviously admired him.

FAMILY PHOTOS sent to aPeckham soldier incarcerated ina Nazi prisoner of war camphave been discovered, with thehope of reuniting them with thelate soldier’s relatives.Stefan Black, from Sydenham, wasrummaging through a second-handshop while on holiday in Poland,when he saw a bundle of black andwhite photos with messages on theback addressed from Peckham.It appeared to Stefan that thephotos had been sent by the dotingwife and children of Charles H.

Ward, of 14 Bird in Bush Road, whoserved as a driver (Private).They had sent the photos toCharles, with the help of the RedCross, while he was imprisoned inStalag VIII-B, in Lamsdorf,Germany.Stefan, 77, said: “I was on holidayin Krakow when I came across thephotos in this memorabilia shop, andI bought them for the equivalent of25p. I was curious because theywere addressed from Bird in BushRoad in Peckham.”Stefan said he felt “touched” by thephotos, which show Mr Ward’syoung daughter Jennifer growingup, and of his new-born baby,

George. Other photos show his brotherJames Ward posing with Charles,and another photo shows his wifeand two children at the front gardenof their home in Bird in Bush Road.“I wonder if there might be anyonein Peckham with the surname[Ward], or who might know whathappened to the family who lived attheir address? His children couldcertainly still be around,” Stefansaid. “I happen to know one personwhose grandfather had the surnameWard, and lived in Peckham, but itwould be great to see who mightcome forward.

“I was rather touched by it becauseshe was sending him photos. TheRed Cross were the ones whoorganised for the prisoners of war tohave post sent to them. “But somehow they ended up inthat shop where I found them,”Stefan said.From exploring the public ForcesWar Records, you can find thatCharles, whose service number was219863, was stationed in Cretebefore he was captured and sent toStalag VIII-B.Stefan, who works as an architect,said he also learnt that the camp wasoverrun by Soviet Russian forces inMay 1945.

He said most of the Britishprisoners of war would have fled asthe Soviets advanced, perhaps insuch a hurry that Charles wouldhave left the photos behind.However, the military recordsshow that he was formally reportedmissing on October 13, 1941.There is also an unconfirmed notethat Ward could have received a Starmedal, which was awarded to allsoldiers “if their service period wasterminated by their death ordisability due to service”.Anyone who believes they mayknow a family connection to CharlesWard or his family can [email protected].

A TRIAL of mini-zebra crossings togo on cycle routes that go behind busshelters and onto pavements has beenannounced, after a protest againstone being built outside St Thomas’Hospital was held on June 28. Last week, a protest was held outside thehospital in opposition to plans for a‘floating bus stop’ being built because ofworries surrounding the highconcentration of disabled people. In a question to London Mayor SadiqKhan, Liberal Democrat AssemblyMember Caroline Pidgeon asked whetherhe was “satisfied” with the level ofconsultation Transport for London (TfL)were undertaking with pensioner anddisabled groups. In his response, the mayor said a groupconsisting of disabled charities and cyclistcampaign groups had come up with a trialof mini-zebra crossings on WhitechapelHigh Street, Stratford High Street andBlackfriars Road.News of the trial was met withscepticism at the hospital, however, as oneblind resident told the News that the stops“denied blind people access to bus stops”.Kate Portal said: “On the islands itselfyou are isolated. You don’t know whatnumber is coming, you don’t know if theone you want is stopping behind the otherone either. “When being dropped off on one of the

islands you don’t know where you’regoing to be dropped off on it. In terms ofcyclists you can’t hear them coming. “I feel that it should have been coveredunder the Disability Discrimination Act asit does not allow some people access. Iwould have thought it would not beallowed. “They’re coming to realise that a lot ofpeople are very worried. I didn’t realisehow extreme these islands would be whenthey came out.” Sir Hugh Taylor, Chairman of Guy’s andSt Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust,questioned whether the mini-zebracrossings would help with the proposedstop outside St Thomas’ in particular, butremained open to dialogue with TfL. He said: “We remain sceptical aboutwhether mini zebra crossings would helpwith the particular one we are concerned

with, because our concern relates to thevolume of buses and the proportion ofvulnerable users. “We are worried about people beingforced onto the cycle paths and whethervarious buggies will be able to moveproperly. We are open to dialogue withTfL and we are expecting to have furtherdiscussions with them and other parties.We want to listen to what they have to sayas well.” Leon Daniels, Managing Director ofSurface Transport at TfL, said: "Weunderstand the concerns of localstakeholders about aspects of the designof this segregated cycle route. “We're confident that our continuedengagement with those stakeholders,including St Thomas’ Hospital, will resultin a final design that meets everyone'sneeds."

THE LONG-AWAITEDPeckham Levels project totransform the town centre carpark into an arts and enterprisehub has been given the green lightby Southwark Council.Councillors on the authority’sPlanning Committee approved thescheme on Tuesday, which will openup 8,731 square metres of space in tenlevels of the six-storey car park.Carl Turner, whose architectural firmwere behind the plans and collaboratedwith other grass roots communitygroups, said he was “Extremely excitedto be bringing an innovative project toPeckham”.“With planning committee it’s alwaysnerve racking, but this looks to becomea big success that can build on thestrength of the Peckham Plex, theBussey Building and Frank’s Café,”Carl said.“We’re going to build it in phases,with levels one and two hopefullycompleted by October. It has hadalready had a massive amount ofinterest with artists and professionalswanting to enquire about bookingstudios. We’re looking to optimise our

profits, not maximise them. We’reoffering very cheap workspace time forordinary local folk and in return we askthat they commit to one hour a weekand give a little bit back.”According to the plans, the basementand ground floor of the Levels projectwill become a main entrance for tenantsand visitors, while retaining 31 publicparking spaces.In the basement, and up to floor two,there will be a focus on artist, withstudios, workshops, dark rooms andrehearsal spaces. Three to four willfocus on start-ups and digital media andinclude co-working spaces, editingsuites, photography studios andmeeting rooms.On floors five and six, (levels sevento ten) Frank’s Café will remain on theroof with capacity for over 1,000people. A children’s play area, eventsspace, dance studios and terraces willfill the rest of floors five and six.Many of the studios on each floor willbe free to use until 1am, seven days perweek, while workshop spaces forceramics, photography, printing, lasercutting, and dark rooms will open from8am to 9pm daily.The change-of-use permission wasawarded by the council on a five-yeartemporary basis.

We raised the most moneyin 48 hours.“The amount of pledges we havehad is now at 881m which is fastapproaching the record held by thePeckham Coal Line project.”The new designs from StudioOctopi are for the pool to be 180foot long, with space for a café andcommunity area. The pool wouldalso be heated and chlorine free.A ‘Splash Mob’ community picnicevent will also be held at theproposed lido site on Sunday at12pm, with around 100 expected toattend.“It’s a low key picnic whichwe hope will give us another littleboost,” Chris said.“People are invited to bring allsorts of swimming paraphernaliaand we we’ll hopefully have a slip-and-slide and rounders.

Meurig Gomer Wyn-Roberts, 53,known as Gomer, was cremated atHonor Oak on July 4 after a servicewas organised and attended by morethan 30 of his friends. The send-off came followingmonths of uncertainty about whatwould happen to his body, after hewas found dead above theGreyhound pub, Peckham in May,because no one could find his nextof kin.

Gomer was always smilingand had such a big heart. “He came down for a funeral onceand was wearing a suit that was fivesizes too small and was wearingwhite trainers. He was the kindestand most caring man. Goodnight andgod bless sunshine.”Music played at the serviceincluded the Welsh national anthemto recognise Gomer’s country ofbirth, YMCA by The Village Peopleand Bring Me Sunshine byMorecambe and Wise.

FIREFIGHTERS HELD aparade through Borough and aspecial service at SouthwarkCathedral on July 5 to mark theLondon Fire Brigade’s 150thanniversary. The parade set off at 2pm fromWinchester House, Southwark BridgeRoad and ended up at the cathedral at2:30pm for a service to commemoratethe Brigade’s relationship with thecathedral. A colour party of four servingfirefighters carried the Brigade’s iconicWatling Street bell – which used tohang in the former Watling Street firestation - along the parade route.They were joined by the Brigade’sCeremonial team who carried thecurrent London Fire Brigade Standard.London Fire Commissioner RonDobson said: “London Fire Brigadehas had a long and close relationshipwith both Southwark Cathedral andthe borough of Southwark so it’s veryfitting that we mark our 150th yearwith this service at the cathedral. “The service was a very specialopportunity for serving and retiredmembers of Brigade staff, as well astheir friends and family and the widercommunity, to give thanks to all those

who have served the Brigade, past andpresent, protecting our capital for thelast century and a half.” The Brigade’s relationship withSouthwark and its cathedral goes backmany years, with fire crews attendinga number of historic blazes in theborough since the Brigade’s formationin 1866. These have included the 1890fire at WA Rose & Co’s oil mills inBankside, one of the largest petroleumfires of the 19th century and the 1920blaze at The Hop and Malt Exchange.

Southwark was one of the mostheavily bombed areas of Londonduring World War Two but itscathedral, like St. Pauls, emergedrelatively unscathed, only sufferingexternal shrapnel damage. This was largely a result of thelocal Auxiliary Fire Service, andlater the National Fire Servicefirefighters who protected thecathedral and the surrounding areatogether with Air Raid PrecautionsWardens and fire watchers.

A DOG owner whoseStaffordshire Bull Terriermauled a boy’s pet Chihuahua todeath has pleaded guilty in court.The savage attack happened onMarch 21, when a boy aged ten waswalking his ten-month-oldChihuahua down Red Cross Way inBorough.The Staffie was loose in its gardenin Windmill Walk while its ownerwent to the shop. It then escapedafter the owner’s child left the frontgate open. It was then that the Staffieescaped and crossed paths with thelittle Chihuahua.During a hearing on Friday atCamberwell Magistrates’ Court, itwas said that a neighbour saw thegruesome attack and ran outside withher husband armed with a stick.They bravely tried to shoo the

Staffie away as the young boy stoodscreaming with his Chihuahua’s leadstill in his hand.Prosecutor Edward Aydin said:“This occurred at 8.20am in themorning and it was a scene of horror,carnage and bloodshed.”The owner of the Chihuahua, who

cannot be named for legal reasons,spoke to the News after the attack.She said the tiny one-and-a-halfkilogram pup was “like a part of theirfamily”. “We keep having flashbacks. Justthinking about it now makes meupset,” they said.Elizabeth Campbell, who spoke forthe defendant, requested anadjournment for expert reports to beprepared in relation to histemperament.“It was not an expected attack andnot one which there was warningfor,” said Ms Campbell.“It is extremely unfortunate. There

is no doubt that the other child whowas in control of the dog would havebeen affected.”Chair of the bench MalcolmGiordano agreed that there was so farinsufficient evidence to make asentence.“We are adjourning for a report tobe prepared and for experts to bringthe case back to court with moreevidence,” Mr Giordano said.The defendant, who also cannot benamed by court order, was bailed toattend Croydon Magistrates' Court tobe sentenced on August 12, foroffences relating to two breaches ofthe 1991 Dangerous Dogs Act.

In a question to the London MayorSadiq Khan, Liberal Democrat LondonAssembly Member Caroline Pidgeonasked what the security and other costswas of the ten fire stations that shut in2014. The Mayor replied that of the ten thatclosed, seven had been sold off and ofthe three remaining, Clerkenwell,Westminster and Southwark, Southwarkhad incurred the sum throughmaintenance, security and utilities. The closure of Southwark fire stationproved controversial under the term offormer London Mayor Boris Johnson,with him arguing that it would providevital savings. Pidgeon told the News that the cost ofmaintaining the station even though it isnot being used was an “insult to injury”.She said: “Back in 2013 a hugenumber of people in Southwark cametogether to fight against the closure ofSouthwark fire station knowing that it

would lead to a reduction in responsetimes for fires. “It now adds insult to injury to discoverthat two and a half years after the closureof Southwark fire station, in addition toa reduction in response times, so muchpublic money has been spent simplymaintaining and protecting an emptyproperty. “In 2013 I firmly rejected BorisJohnson’s argument that the closure ofSouthwark fire station could be justifieddue to the savings it would create. “Sadly it seems that even the promisedsavings have not been as significant ashe promised due to the high costs ofmaintaining and securing an emptybuilding over two and half years.” Plans for the old fire station includeturning it into a new 900-studentsecondary school with a multi-usegames area by developers Hadston. There was a recent consultation on theplans at the end of May with 174 peopleattending. London Fire Brigade spokespersonsaid: “The cost of security is a one offpayment and will be more than offsetonce the station has been sold. “Once closed, it was important to makesure the buildings were safe and securein order to achieve resale and avoidsquatting and other public nuisances.”

Walking around, you'resometimes speechless – the people hereare smiling, happy and get on withthings. There's a lot of people who moanout there and you come here (andrealise) we've got nothing to moan

about. It was an eye-opener and Ienjoyed being there.“The most striking experience was

speaking to the servicemen and hearingsome of their stories. To see how theymade the prosthetic legs and arms, andthe cost is unbelievable.

A ROTHERHITHE residentfilled “fourteen buckets” ofsewage in just one hour on July 4as it poured out of the drains andleaked through the ceiling andwalls in her flat.Four flats of Regina Point on theCanada Estate were filled with sewagedue to a soft-drink bottle clogging upan important pipe, forcing faeces,urine and dirty toilet roll to be pushedout. Horrified residents called SouthwarkCouncil’s emergency call centre late atnight as the flooding begun, but weretold to “put a bucket underneath it”and that they “couldn’t do anything atnight due to health and safety”. Candice Copley, one of those affected,told the News how she becameincreasingly frustrated with the callcentre as she tried to stop moredamage being done. She said: “My main issue was withSouthwark Council’s call centre. Allthey kept saying was “you’re justrepeating yourself” and “put a bucket”underneath the leak. “One of the people I spoke to wenthome before it was resolved. I work incustomer relations and that’sappalling. “They told me they could send anassessor afterwards to fill out a formto see what they could help us with. “At one point they said “we can’t doanything during the night because ofhealth and safety”, but what about ourhealth and safety?

“I got rid of fourteen buckets in justone hour.”

Candice’s mother, Edna, claimed thatone resident “had to use an umbrellawhen she went for a wee” due to theleaks. It was only when Barry Duckett,chairman of the Canada Estate Tenantsand Residents Association, calledbuilders Keepmoat for assistance, thatthe leaks were stopped. Barry said: “I have done more thanSouthwark in this instance. Southwarkhave been absolutely disgusting and Iam fed up with them. “When there’s sewage in your houseyou should have Environmental

Health in. These people have lost theirhouses. This is not good enough fromSouthwark Council.“It’s a catastrophe.”Councillor Stephanie Cryan,Southwark Council’s CabinetMember for Housing, said:“Southwark Council’s repairs teamshave been on site since they werecalled out and have both resolved theblockage and are dealing with anyresulting issues, including checkingelectrical safety and cleaning upwhere needed.

SOUTHWARK COUNCIL hasagreed to “go back to BritishLand” to ask them to “look at allof the potential sites” of the newCanada Water Leisure Centre,after months of pressure from localcouncillors and residents. In a meeting on June 28, British Landand councillor Mark Williams,Southwark Council’s Cabinet Memberfor Regeneration and New Homes, metconcerned residents about the preferredlocation of the leisure centre, whichwill replace Rotherhithe’s SevenIslands Leisure Centre. Councillor Williams said in a letterafter the meeting: “I committed to notrush making a decision on where thenew leisure centre will go, and we willnow go back to British Land and askthem to look at all of the potential sites

and see whether an alternative locationcan be found. “This will tie in with their currentwork on reviewing the overallMasterplan following their publicconsultation earlier this year.”He also said he wanted to “reset” thecouncil’s relationship with residents asthe issue had been controversial forsome time. “As set out last night I wantto reset our relationship with localresidents so that we can have an openand productive dialogue over thecoming months and years,” he added.News of the council’s decision waswelcomed by the Canada Water WestResidents’ Action Group, a collectionof residents opposed to the preferredlocation on the western side of SurreyQuays Shopping Centre car park.Catherine Whitaker, Chair of thegroup, said: “I very much welcomeMark Williams’ commitment to rethinkthe plans for the leisure centre. “It came as a surprise but I think hesaw that the community is united inopposition to the council's 'preferred'

site and as he put it, it's time to 'resetthe relationship' between thecommunity and the council on thisissue.”The new leisure centre is part of thewider £2bn Canada Water Masterplanwhich will see some 3,500 new homesbuilt as well as five 50 storey buildings. The location of the leisure centre wasa key topic during the recent SurreyDocks ward by-election, and was partof the victorious Liberal Democratcandidate Dan Whitehead’s campaign.Councillor Whitehead said: “It’s goodthat all our pressure has forced to thecouncil to finally listen to thecommunity and say that it wants to ‘re-set’ its relationship with residents. It isa shame that it has taken almost a yearto get to this point though. “There are other possible sites thatshould be looked at and I am glad thatresidents and Liberal Democratcouncillors have pushed the Council toslow down and look at all the optionsproperly. I will continue to fightresidents’ corner.”

PRIMARY AND secondaryschool teachers from across theborough joined a national strikeon Tuesday against proposedgovernment “funding cuts”.Southwark Council said it expectedhalf of the borough’s schools to beaffected by the National Union ofTeacher’s (NUT) strike, who claim2,000 members in Southwark. The News has learnt that Bacon’sCollege in Rotherhithe and CharterSchool in Dulwich were amongseveral that asked entire year groups tostay at home.The joint secretary of Southwark’sNUT branch, Michael Davern, told theNews: “The NUT is aware strikeaction can be disruptive to parents andcarers and for that we wholeheartedlyapologise. Equally, teachers do nottake strike action lightly. The problemsfacing education are too great to beignored and we know many parentsshare our concerns.”Teachers from across the countryalso joined a 15,000-strong marchthrough central London, which startedat 11am in Portland Place and finishedin Parliament Square.A letter written by the NUT’s general

secretary, Kevin Courtney, to thesecretary of state for education, NickyMorgan, also set out their case forindustrial action.Mr Courtney cited the Institute ofFiscal Studies forecast that schoolscould lose eight per cent of funding inreal terms in the coming years, andreferenced increasing class sizes,fewer subject choices, and staff cuts.Mr Courtney’s letter said: “The maincause of this is increasing pressure onschool budget due to the per-pupilfunding freeze, exacerbated by thehigher national insurance and pensionscosts imposed by your governmentwhich are adding an extra five per centto the cost of employing teachers.“We make one last appeal to you toavoid this action: Fund schoolsufficiently… Tell academies theymust at least have regard to thenational terms and conditions…Promise meaningful talks to look fora full resolution of the dispute.”In a letter responding to MrCourtney, Nicky Morgan accused theNUT of “playing politics withchildren’s futures”.Ms Morgan said: “We are investingmore than any previous government inour schools. This year the schoolsbudget will total £40bn, an increase of£4bn since 2011-12.”

Lest we forgetBERMONDSEY ANDRotherhithe came together onFriday July 1 to mark thecentenary of World WarOne’s Battle of the Somme,where around 20,000 Britishsoldiers died on the first day.


COMMUTERS ON the borough’sSouthern Railway and Thameslinkservices face reduced services nextweek, after it announced 350 serviceswill be axed.A raft of emergency weekday timetableswill take effect on Monday with servicesthroughout the south east into London cutshort. There will be a fourteen per centreduction in AM services to LondonBridge, with PM services reduced bysixteen per cent. Services to Victoria willalso be reduced by five per centthroughout the day.Govia Thameslink Railway (GTR),who own and manage both theThameslink and Southern franchises, hassaid the emergency brake is down to“unprecedented” levels of crew sicknesswith other staff unwilling to workovertime.Helen Hayes, MP for Dulwich and WestNorwood – areas where manycommuters will be affected – yesterdaysaid Govia Thameslink Railway’sperformance was “simply not goodenough”. “Every week I am contacted byresidents frustrated at the terrible railservices in my constituency,” Ms Hayessaid.“Too many passengers are made late forwork, left stranded, forced to travel inunbearably crowded conditions or findthemselves unable to board trains duringpeak times because they are full.“I met the Rail Minister, Claire PerryMP, and the Chief Executive of GTR,

Charles Horton, to discuss theunacceptable levels of service that myconstituents are experiencing. I wasabsolutely clear with them that the currentsituation is unbearable and is causinguntold misery for my constituents on adaily basis.” As well as sick leave, the staff shortageshave also been blamed on Govia’songoing battle with the Rail, Maritimeand Transport trade union (RMT) whohave taken industrial action against thefirm’s plan to start using driver-onlyoperated trains. However the RMT deniesallegations that increases in staff sicknesshave been planned to coincide with theirindustrial action.Southern’s Passenger Services Director,Alex Foulds, said: “We are introducingthis temporary weekday timetable withreluctance, but it is the best thing we cando for our passengers who have beensuffering daily cancellations ever sincethis dispute with the RMT began, and forwhich we are sincerely sorry. “It should give the majority of ourpassengers a better, more consistentservice that they can plan around. “Whilst our first priority is ourpassengers, we also understand that thishas been a difficult time for our staff.Conductors already know that their jobsare guaranteed, that there will be noreduction in salary and that theindependent rail safety body hasconfirmed our plans are safe. “Now, after listening to our staff, wehave also decided to restore leisure travelbenefits. All of this, we believe, shouldhelp our staff feel able to return to workand so reduce the issues causing thecurrent high level of train cancellations.”

AN ASYLUM seeker charity basedin Peckham and Elephant andCastle is appealing for backers tohelp keep it afloat, after losingnearly £40,000 of funding.The Southwark Day Centre forAsylum Seekers assists some 600 clientswith 40 volunteers, and says it “helpswith the relief of poverty and distress”and promotes health and education forasylum seekers and refugees.The charity’s coordinator, PaulineNandoo, said: “We’re still in a criticalsituation and we’re fundraising likecrazy. We are finding fewer agencieswho can work with us and we may haveto lose staff.“We have about 80 families with youngchildren and we are very conscious thatmany of them don’t have anything andare in desperate need.“Our strategy is to raise funds thatmight not be huge amounts but will seeus through while we look for long-terminvestment.“We lost £30,000 from SouthwarkCouncil after they cut spending on youthservices earlier in the year, which was thelargest chunk of funding we weregetting. Then we lost £8,000 from theCommunity Choice Programme.”One of the volunteers, nineteen-year-old Jonas Wesfendorf, said: “Themajority of the asylum seekers we helpcome from Iran, Nigeria, Afghanistanand Syria and we saw an increase indemand last year with what’s happeningin the Middle East.

“We depend on donations and we workwith other charities. For example FairShare collect food for our food bank andwe get donations of food fromsupermarkets.“We’re now looking for new donorswho can help us, but it is provingdifficult.”The Day Centre has been open for 20years and offers a food bank, a CitizensAdvice drop-in service, NHS nurse visitsand parenting support. It’s three centresare based in Copleston Road inPeckham, New Kent Road andPeckham Park Road. Southwark Council’s cut in the annualgrant it gives to the day centre came into affect in April at the beginning of thecurrent financial year.The council’s annual budget, whichdetermined these cuts, was decided inFebruary. The budget saw SouthwarkCouncil challenged with finding £37m

of “efficiency savings” over the next fouryears, due to a dramatic reduction infunding from central government.

The brickwork was crumblingaway before, it’s more pleasant now. “I like the yellow colours and love howthey get lighter and lighter at each floor.We were all unsure about the new coloursat first but seeing it all finished now, Ithink it’s beautiful.”The bright colour scheme was just onepart of an overall plan to improve the

BERMONDSEY


JACK WELLS’ family have paidtribute to a loving father anddedicated friend, saying he “kept hissense of humour and kept trying tolaugh” right up until he passedaway from terminal cancer. Jack, 23, was diagnosed with Ewing’ssarcoma, a rare bone disease, at thebeginning of 2015 and spent the rest ofhis life raising money to make memorieswith his three-year-old daughter, Scarlett. He died before he was able to fulfilevery wish, however, on June 27 at6:45am under the care of StChristopher’s Hospice, Sydenham,where he was sedated for comfort andwatched over by his mum, Veronica.“I was up right through the nightwatching him. He was thinking of othersall of the time,” she said. “He just wanted it to be me and him.He wanted to be sedated and he was in acomfortable sleep. He was breathingthen stopping, then breathing again.“The hospice did everything for him.”Born on July 1, Jack was anunashamed “mummy’s boy” andremained committed to his family andhis friends, none more so than hisdaughter. Veronica said: “On the day that he wasgiven hours to live, all he wanted was tosee Scarlett. Even with all the drugs hemanaged to sit up and hug her.

“He kissed and cuddled Scarlett. Whenhe was well he used to jump her andscare her to make her laugh.”“He loved his daughter. She will comehere now and probably say “where’sdaddy? Where’s daddy? And he’s notgoing to be here,” added George, Jack’sstepdad. George met Jack when he was five-years-old and proudly watched himgrow up. “He was five when I first met him. I justdidn’t think this would happen. He grewup and got on with everything, getting ajob with the council. He loved footballand computer games,” he said. “I didn’t want to accept it when he wasdiagnosed but Veronica told me hewould die eventually. I just rememberseeing Jack get up and have a bath, havea drink and get on with it though so Ithought the day would never come. “But once months started passing I sawlittle changes. Then I thought his mum

was right.”Jack was full of energy from a youngage which sometimes saw him end up introuble, such as breaking his anklesnumerous times playing football.His sense of adventure would often seea young Jack tell his family how hewould grow up to be anything from asports star to a policeman.Veronica said: “You name it he wantedto be it when he was little. Policeman,fireman or footballer. The last one didn’twork out because he was always in acast."Jack grew up with his younger sisterBecky, who admired his ability to carryon no matter the weather and his cheekysense of humour. Becky said: “We used to muck about alot around our mum. He used to poke meto get me annoyed and mum would tellus to shut up. "He was a nice hearted boy with loadsof friends. If you didn’t know he had

cancer you would not think he did by theway he was. "He just got on with it."As Jack's cancer turned terminal inMay this year, his focus remained ontrying to enjoy life to the best of hisability and create memories withScarlett. His uncle, Ian Wells, spoilt Jack withattention since he was born, taking himon holidays to Disneyland and Spain,and in Jack’s final days went one stepfurther and organised a last trip toAmsterdam. “When Jack spoke to Ian last, Ian toldhim “I’ve always seen you as my son,and I will always treat you as my son,”said George. Through the kindness of strangers,family and close-friends, Jack was alsoable to enjoy the chance to drive aMercedes, but he was unfortunately tooill to go on a hot air balloon ride or go ona VIP safari trip with Scarlett.

His friendliness was infectiouswherever he went though and he alwaysmanaged "to put a smile on doctors andnurses in hospital".The money that was raised will now besplit in half, with one share going to StChristopher's Hospice and the rest goingtoward Scarlett's future. Jack will be cremated on Friday July 15at Honor Oak Crematorium, with a wakeat the Stanley Arms afterwards. The family have asked that instead offlowers, donations would be welcomefor St Christopher's Hospice andScarlett's fund. To donate, please contactGary Valentine-Fuller on 01689 798 448.

want someone to think of me if I waspoorly’ and assured him that TheMumMum Foundation would doeverything in our power to help himachieve his last wishes with his littlegirl; We hoped that the safari wewere planning was going to be thefirst of many bucket-listers and itbroke our hearts that he sadly lost hisbrave fight to cancer before we couldeven get him there. “Jack’s family have asked me toconduct his funeral, which I considera great honour.

“It was heart breaking to witness hisfamily celebrate his 24th Birthday inour family funeral home on Friday,but they said that Jack wouldn’t ofwanted it any other way. His familyare the most beautiful and strongestpeople you could ever meet.Bermondsey has lost one of its lastremaining treasures. My thoughtsand prayers are with his family andfriends at this very sad time.“May he sleep in perfect peace.‘Please say hello to MumMum forme’.”

PEOPLE LIVING withlearning disabilities inSouthwark are being helped toget early diagnosis andtreatment of cancer thanks toGuy's and St Thomas' learningdisability community healthteam.Recent research suggests that

people with learning disabilitiesneed better support to spot the signsand symptoms of cancer early andto overcome their potential fears ofhealth professionals.To combat the problem, nursesfrom Guy’s and St Thomas’ learningdisability community health teamencourage people with learning

disabilities to get regular healthchecks with their GP and to attendhospital and GP appointments.The team of communitynurses, occupational therapists,physiotherapists and speech andlanguage therapists providesservices to an estimated 6,000people living with learning

disabilities in Southwark, Lambethand Lewisham.Learning disabilities can affect theway people learn new or complexskills and how they communicate. Alearning disability can be mild,moderate or severe.Sylvia Barnes, 75, was diagnosedwith cervical cancer last year andreceived treatment at Guy's and StThomas'. The learning disabilitycommunity health team attendedimportant hospital appointmentswith her and informed the hospitalcancer teams of her disability andconcerns. With their support, shewas able to overcome her fear ofhospitals and get the treatment sheneeded.Jackie Downing, Deputy Head ofNursing for Health Inclusion atGuy’s and St Thomas’, says: "Thereare many reasons why people withlearning disabilities are less likely toget a cancer diagnosis than thegeneral population."It could be because they don't telltheir parent or carer about thesymptoms they've been havingbecause of fear of going to thedoctor. Or it could be that healthprofessionals are missing thewarning signs or makingassumptions about whether peoplewith learning disabilities cantolerate diagnostic tests like acervical smear test or treatmentslike chemotherapy.“But there are many things that wecan do to encourage people withlearning disabilities to get the carethey need. It's about improvingunderstanding and taking away thefear associated with cancer.”

Southwark andLambeth after Brexit

LIKE MANY I was saddenby the recent Brexitreferendum results and I

am proud to have voted for theUK to remain. I benefited from the Erasmus EU

Student Exchange programme andhad the opportunity to study atUtrecht University for six monthsduring the final year of myundergraduate degree studies. Mystudent exchange programme was thefirst time I experienced living andstudying abroad. As an European, Imade a number of new friends duringmy six months, many of whom I amstill in touch with today. As a memberof the EU, I was not required to payextra tuition fees at my hostuniversity and I was able to apply fora grant to help cover myaccommodation costs in Utrecht. Without this vital EU grant, thisopportunity would not have beenpossible. I now fear that programmeslike this will be denied to millions ofyoung students not only acrossLambeth and Southwark, but rightacross the UK. I have been a long-time advocate for encouraging youngpeople to get involved in thedemocratic process and a keensupporter of reducing the voter age to16 and it was good to see so manyunder 25yr olds casting their votes forthe first time. Unfortunately, for themajority of them, this was not theresult they wanted. I am worried about the increase inracist attacks after the referendumresults. There has been a steepincrease in intimidation, violence andcalls for people to ‘go home’ directedat non-white people and Europeannationals. It is important that we allwork together to defend andchampion the diversity across ourcity, especially in boroughs likeSouthwark. At the recent LondonAssembly Police and CrimeCommittee meeting, of which I am amember, it was reassuring to hear theDeputy Police Commissioner and thenew Deputy Mayor for Police &Crime highlight that the police will beon alert with extra vigilance on racehate crime, and will take action onany incidents and attacks. It isimportant for residents to ensure thatany incidents they witness or becomeaware of, are reported to the police. The full implications of our exitfrom the EU will become clearer overthe weeks and months ahead. TheMayor and London Assembly will bepushing for London to remain in thesingle market, which willundoubtable benefit Southwarkbusinesses.

FLORENCE ESHALOMILondon Assembly Memberfor Southwark & Lambeth

The electorate is always rightIN HER column (30 June) HelenHayes, MP for Dulwich & WestNorwood, calls for a secondReferendum. She cites that Leave won with just asmall majoirty. So a majority of 1.2million is small is it? In politics a majority of one issufficient. Ms Hayes goes on to claimthe Leave campaign told lies. So theRemain campaign were completelyhonest were they? They ran a negativecampaign. All doom and gloom.The Remain campaign had the

goverment machinery behind it. I donot believe for one moment that No10did not coordinate world leaders andother overseas politicians coming out infavour of the UK staying in the EU.Leave had to fight against all the oddsand still triumphed.Ms Hayes is a London based MP butLondon is not England. Not by a longchalk.I recently went to France to watch

England play in Euro 2016 and askedNortherners I met what the feeling wasup there. To a man they told meeveryone they knew wanted outbecause of genuine concerns aboutimmigration, a taboo subject for theLabour Party. To these Northerners Itwas not the main issue. It was the onlyissue. They said they kept being remindedby the politicians that immigration isbeneficial to the country but for the lifeof them, they could see absolutely nobenefits where they lived. Has Ms Hayes ever spoken to peoplefrom the back streets of places likeBarnsley or Huddersfield? If she had,she would have got a different picture. It is ironic that Leave won due, in nosmall part, to Labour voters ignoringthe party line because they do not feelthe Party represents them any more. Indeed, when it came to theReferendum they had more in commonwith the voters in the Shires. Believe me, Northern voters hadmade their minds up some time agoabout how they were going to vote. Allthe debate about NHS funding etc inrecent weeks had no effect whatsoever. Remain voters are bad losers whobelieve in democracy as long as theresult goes their way. Ms Hayes, of all people, should beaware of a truism in politics, namely,

that the electorate is always right.Patrick Burke, Barbican

Hadley can affordaffordable homesYOUR REVELATION last weekthat Hadley group is trying toescape its obligation to build 35 percent affordable housing ongrounds of 'viability' needs to bechallenged. It claims it meets its section 106'planning gain' duty by building a newstadium on Metropolitan Open Land(MOL). Hadley says this may cost £5million. If you divide the purchase price by155, the number of units proposed, itarrives at £38,000 per unit. Londondevelopers normally expect buildingland to cost about a third of theeventual selling price. Working on an average selling price

of £500,000 per unit, that wouldsuggest a ‘normal’ land cost of£166,667 per unit, giving a differenceof £128,667 per unit. Multiply that by155 and you obtain a notional grossprofit on the land alone of £19.4million. That’s all before buildingbegins.So Hadley could well bear the cost ofaffordable homes. The development ismore than viable. And so is the footballclub with a four-fold rise in averageattendance of more than 1,300, risingto more than 2,500 for some games,plus proportional profits from beersales. But by far the club's greatest asset areits loyal fans and hardworkingvolunteers who last year worked anestimated 2,500 hours for the club. Jonathan Hunt, Champion Hill SE5

Sight test for those withlearning disabilitiesIN A report launched inparliament we at SeeAbility sayNHS England’s national sighttesting and funding system isletting down the one million peoplewith learning disabilities inEngland. Us and leading eye health

organisation the Local OpticalCommittee Support Unit (LOCSU) arecalling for an urgent overhaul of thesystem as there are huge levels of sightproblems amongst people with learning

disabilities and people are currentlymissing out on the eye care they need.Some are even tragically losing theirsight.SeeAbility’s report, ‘Delivering anequal right to sight’, finds numbers inEngland are at their highest level yet: • one in ten of the learning disability

population will be blind or partiallysighted• six in ten people with learningdisabilities will need glasses• studies indicate four in ten of the100,000 children in special schoolshave never had a sight test and up tohalf of adults with learning disabilitieshave not had their eyes tested in therecommended period • Children with learning disabilitiesare 28 times more likely to have aserious sight problem than otherchildrenPeople with learning disabilities, theirfamilies and supporters are being askedto sign a petition calling on NHSEngland to deliver a more inclusivesystem and offer free sight tests for allworking age people with learningdisabilities. Sight tests not only help people get theglasses they need, they can identifyserious sight threatening conditions likecataracts and glaucoma. There iscurrently no NHS plan for eye care andlittle mention of the high risk of sightproblems or the need for checks in newnational learning disability strategies. The current NHS contract for sight

tests fails to recognise that people arelikely to need additional time orappointments to complete a sight test,as well as better support with glasses.Those of working age may not beeligible for NHS funded sight tests,unlike other high risk groups which are,such as those with a family history ofglaucoma.SeeAbility also says there needs to be

awareness training in health and socialcare on the risks and signs of a sightproblem in people with learningdisabilities. Eye care services need toprovide accessible information andreasonable adjustments, and the reportfeatures projects across the countrysupporting people with learningdisabilities that others can learn from,including SeeAbility’s work to deliversight tests and glasses to children inspecial schools.SeeAbility’s new report ‘Deliveringan equal right to sight’ and a link to thepetition is available atwww.seeability.org/equalrighttosight

This week of high political drama andthe unexpected fall of the country’sleader seems an appropriate

backdrop for the opening of Macbeth,writes Katie Kelly...The fear and rage that we have seen enacted on

our public stage all find themselves echoed in thisplay about the taking and losing of power, and itspotential to corrupt and destroy.The arresting music that opens the performanceboth heralds and sustains the strong supernaturalthread interwoven into the story. When going to see a production of ‘The ScottishPlay’ at the Globe, I imagine an audience ishoping both for an original interpretation andgreat performances of iconic roles. The first hintof originality comes with the appearance of the‘Wyrd sisters’ and a brilliant use of puppetry intheir portrayal. This ‘disembodiment’ iswonderfully macabre and suitably chilling. Other strokes of creative genius include thescene in which Banquo's ghost appears toMacbeth and also the amount of humour in theproduction. King Duncan is played for laughsuntil he meets his unfunny end. His murder isfollowed very quickly by a superbly comic turn byNadia Albina as the porter. Tara Fitzgerald brings us an extremely

convincing Lady Macbeth, from the first scenewhere she is provocative, powerful and terrifyingas she ‘unsexes’ herself and commits all she has toa bloodthirsty quest for power, through herdescent into a more vulnerable looking madness. Ray Fearon seemed to warm up in the role ofMacbeth as the play went on - I was unconvincedat the interval but more impressed by curtain call. Scarlett Brookes deserves a mention for herheartbreaking Lady Macduff. This is a small rolethat has the potential for huge impact and, for me,her murder was the most sinister andheartbreaking scene of the night. The Globe also played its unique part in the play- the benefits and drawbacks of an open air spacewere all in force. Many might have bemoaned anevening standing in the unseasonal rain, or beendistracted by the occasional incongruous noise ofoverhead aircraft, but this was surely outweighedby the power of night falling and light fading asMacbeth descended into deepest darkness anddeath.

LONDON HAS brewed beersince time immemorial, with itspresence a constant liquid rungupon which the capital’s citizenshave climbed through history.From Falstaff’s buffoonery inShakespeare to Southwark’shistoric Anchor Brewery,London has thrived from thecultivation of hops and malt,writes Callum Burroughs...Southwark has been home to manyexcellent breweries, but lately it hasstaked a real claim to being thehotbed of London’s craft beer scene,with the now infamous BermondseyBeer Mile. London Brewery Tours have beenoperating Saturday tours since 2014and aim to highlight some of the newbeers and ales which have revitalisedthe commercial area of Druid Streetmarket. The first stop on our tour wasSouthwark Brewery, situated onDruid Street alongside a number ofother exciting local businessesnestled under the railway arches. Founded in 2014 the SE1 breweryhas gone from strength to strengthoffering a variety of traditional ales,including its Bermondsey Best, tomore experimental hoppyalternatives such as the citrus fuelledCascade. The brewery’s location might seemodd but there is logic to the railwayarches as they provide cooltemperatures and decent storagespace, allowing them to producearound 2700 pints per brew. The challenges of producingexciting new beers on such a regularbasis is one relished by the team atSouthwark Brewery, with brewerKieran Leeks citing a realcommunity feel for brewers underthe arches. He said: “It’s a really friendlyenvironment. We can talk about beerall the time and everyone gets onwell. It’s about doing something thatwe’re passionate about which iskey.“Our willingness to stay is quicklycurtailed as our guides agitate for usto move on to our next stop. Just a few hundred metres awaypast some artisanal bakeries and foodstalls sits Ansbach and Hobday witha sprawl of people standing outsidein the street chattering intently. We pick up a Framboise IPAexpecting sweet, fruity tastes butinstead find a funky sourness thathits our unprepared pallets hard. We then sample the brewery’s newWhite Session IPA a new concoctionmade possible by recently purchasedequipment. The variety of options matchesSouthwark Brewery but the overspillof beer lovers into the road suggestsat a more expectant crowd. “We have a focus on quality,“ I’mtold by founder and proprietor JackHobday, one half of the brandedstarted in 2012. “I think it’s the factthat the better beer we produce themore of a crowd we can attract.“Other thriving businesses here fill

the air with tempting smells andnoises but as ever we are made tomove on with our next beer stoplooming in the distance. Our approach to Fourpure brewerymakes it clear that the ‘beer mile’ isin fact a misnomer. It’s easy to see why distance is soarbitrary as we trek throughBermondsey’s streets buoyed by beerand expectant of what we are told isthe biggest brewery on our tour. Hidden away in an industrial estatenear South Bermondsey station,Fourpure is indeed the biggest we’veseen so far today with its hangarsized space full of mash vats andboilers. Some of their beer, most of whichcomes in cans, is actually aged inoak barrels which formerly housedBordeaux reds supposedly enhancingtheir flavour and strength. Founded in 2013 by brothers Tomand Dan Lowe, Fourpure is a nod tobeer’s four main ingredients - thoughtheir stylised cans show theirinspirations come from all over theworld. The room is abuzz with keencustomers and despite previouslyexpanding they are unable to meetdemand, even at full capacity, whichmight lead to yet another move andperhaps greater prominence. British weather intervenes and weleave for our final destination, thedecidedly cool Partizan Brewery. We attempt to cram inside out ofthe rain but struggle as yet another of

Bermondsey’s breweries seemspacked once again, this time underarches on Almond Road. Yet again there’s an astonishingrange on offer with lemon andthyme, another (potentially moredelicious) raspberry effort and apunchy IPA which at 6.5% remindedyou of its presence. Our stay was short-lived as the barwas closing but founder Andy Smithalso stressed the two key factors inthe emergence of Bermondsey’s craftbeer scene, cost and community. He said: “It has since turned outthat it’s been incredibly nice beingneighbours as they are a lovelybunch.““From time to time we can helpeach other with stock and such ifthere’s [an] emergency shortages andso on.“Some of the first equipment usedby Partizan came from nearbyKernel Brewery, the forerunners ofBermondsey’s craft beerneighbourhood, while Andy praisesthe work done by Anspach andHobday and Southwark Brewery.We’re forced to depart withflavours still mingling in our mouthsas the previous crowd dispersedtowards the rest of their evening, raindrenched but content. The future looks bright inBermondsey with a group ofpassionate and exciting brewerscontinuing the borough’s trend ofproviding great beer in the heart ofLondon.

Strange brew, look what’s inside of you

Craig ready for new battleCraig ready for new battle

TONY CRAIG has promisedthere will be no League Oneplay-off final hangover when theLions’ 2016-17 campaign getsunder way against Oldham onAugust 6. Millwall missed out on a place inthe Championship after the 3-1defeat to Barnsley at Wembley inMay, but are joint-second favouritesat 10/1 to win the League One titlenext season and just over 3/1 to getpromoted. Neil Harris’ side made a poor startlast season but will be expected tojustify those odds in his second fullcampaign in charge. Millwall’s form after the turn ofthe year has also raised expectationlevels, while the quickly finalisedacquisitions of wingers DavidWorrall and Gregg Wylde anddefender Shaun Hutchinson havebeen well received by supporters. The last time Millwall lost aLeague One play-off final, in 2009,they were promoted via the sameroute the following season. However, the last two sides to loseLeague One play-off finals offermore cautionary tales: Swindonwere beaten finalists in 2015 andslumped to a fifteenth-place finishlast season, while Leyton Orientwere relegated the seasonimmediately after they lost out to

Rotherham in 2014. Craig was part of those Millwallsides in 2009 and 2010, while healso has the experience of beingpromoted with Brentford in 2014twelve months after they had lost theLeague One play-off final to Yeovil. And the Millwall club captain issetting a short-term target to ensurethe Lions make a positive start to theseason. “We know what’s at stake,“ Craigsaid. “We look at the first five gamesand when it comes nearer we setourselves a points target and gofrom there. “This time of the year, therecertainly won’t be (a hangover). Theolder boys will be drumming it intothe younger ones that we’ve got tomove on. It’s a new season, newbeginning. “These young boys have got thatextra experience. We are quite ayoung squad and we had quite a lowat the end of last season. They willbe firing to go, they’ll want to proveto a lot of people that they can playat a higher level.“ Craig admitted he enjoyed his timeoff during the summer – including,he joked, an “eye-opening“ stag tripto Benidorm – though it wasshortened by Millwall’sinvolvement in the play-offs. Asked if he was looking forward topre-season training, Craig quipped:“It’s two weeks of hell! “It’s a hard two weeks but I’ve gotto get my base and everyone has to

get their base. You know what’scoming so I’ve had to look aftermyself during the off-season, do myruns, do my gym work. “I think this is my sixteenth orseventeenth pre-season so therearen’t going to be any surprises forme. “You need your base, the first twoweeks are very important. It’s hardwork but hopefully as the months goon it’ll have been worth it. “I’ve had some good nights out.You’ve got to enjoy your downtime.It’s a hard nine or ten months, it’srelentless with game after game,training session after trainingsession. Sometimes you’ve got to goand have your lads’ holiday, your

holiday with the missus and thekids. It doesn’t hurt to let your hairdown as long as it’s at the righttime.“ Craig met new signings Worrall,Wylde and Hutchinson last Friday.Steve Morison and Shane Fergusonwere late additions to the squad lastsummer and missed the trainingcamp in Portugal. Craig believes it’s an advantage tohave the new recruits on boardbefore the squad depart for the sametraining base this week, and he saidthey “can’t wait to get going“. “I think it’s very important to havethe squad together before goingaway (to Portugal),“ Craig said.“We’ll see what they are like as

players but also as people off thepitch. That’s where bonds are madeand people get on. “We’ve got a great bunch here,doesn’t matter if you’re old, youngor middle-aged. It’s a good time atthis club at the moment and it’s apleasure to be here. “We had a good season last year,we finished it very well, thoughunfortunately not in the last game. “People know about us now, weproved a lot of people wrong (lastseason), as we always do at thisclub. We look forward to the nextchallenge. “We’ve got a lot of hard gamescoming up this year but we can’twait to get going.“

MILLWALL JET out to Portugaltoday (Thursday) as they ramp uptheir fitness work and tacticalpreparations before the start of the2016-17 League One campaign. The squad returned to Calmont Roadfor the start of pre-season training lastFriday and boss Neil Harris said he waspleased with the physical levels of theplayers after a shorter summer break

following their play-off involvement. “All the testing was done Friday:jump testing, body fat, players beingweighed,” Harris explained. “Therewere also strength tests, bench pressesand other similar exercises. They alsodo a yo-yo run (a variation of a beeptest), which is an endurance test of 20metres. “It’s to establish the base levels andthen the sports science department andmedical department can use all that datato see where people are at physically.

“Some need more gym work, someneed more aerobic capacity workouts.Fortunately most were in shape, theyworry about diets which is quitecommon these days compared to theold days where players came backoverweight.” Meanwhile, Shaun Cummings andChristian Mbulu are the only currentinjury absentees. Cummings couldreturn to first-team action in August andis currently working away from thesquad with club physio Bobby Bacic as

he recovers from a knee injury that haskept him out since February. Mbulu damaged his knee last seasonand is not expected to be back incompetitive action until October orNovember. Harris also confirmed that HarrySmith, the Folkestone Invicta striker, isnot on trial at the club this week as wasoriginally planned. Smith, 21, is interesting the Lions andtheir League One rivals Gillingham,whom he trained with last season. He

has also been on trial at Scottish clubAberdeen. The 6ft 6ins centre-forward helpedFolkestone Invicta to promotion to theIsthmian League Premier Division lastseason, and Harris still wants the clubto take a look at the player. “Harry unfortunately has not beenable to come in this week, he picked upa minor knock doing some personaltraining,” Harris said. “Hopefully he’llbe in next week as soon as he’s fit to dosome work with us.”

STEVE MORISON believesMillwall strikers will be markedmen in League One this season. Morison and Lee Gregory wereboss Neil Harris’ regular front twolast season, and they fired 46 goalsbetween them in all competitions asthe Lions reached the semi-finals ofthe Johnstone’s Paint Trophy and thefinal of the League One play-offs. Aiden O’Brien also chipped inwith thirteen goals as Millwallfinished as the third-highest scorersin League One last season, behindWigan and Peterborough. Harris has added exciting wingersGregg Wylde and David Worrall tohis squad this summer, and they willbe expected to provide theammunition from the wide areas forMorison and Gregory this season. The strike duo scored 29 of those46 goals after the turn of the year asMillwall’s form really took off, andMorison wants that kind of goal-scoring rate to continue from thebeginning of the campaign this time. “I think if we can replicate what wedid last year, but do it from the startof the season, we’ll be in a very, verygood place,” he said. “We might have been the bestpartnership in the league, that’sbased on stats as well, not just whatpeople think. “It’s going to be harder this year.Everyone’s going to be looking forit and expecting it and trying to stopit. So we need to up our game andI’m sure we can do that.” This pre-season is Morison’s

sixteenth as a senior professionalfootballer since his first withNorthampton Town in 2001. He wasthe oldest member of the first-choicestarting XI last season, but stillmanaged the most appearances, 57in all competitions. Morison will celebrate his 33rdbirthday in the first month of theseason but he remains a crucialcomponent in Harris’ tactical plan,providing a robust target thatMillwall use to release pressure andset up attacks. Morison has spoken of his sensibleapproach to diet and his lifestyle offthe pitch. He says he has come backwith a good level of fitness ahead ofthe new season after a two-weekbreak in Portugal with his family anda stint working as a pundit for ITVfor the England-Wales Euro 2016clash. Millwall’s players were givenexercise programmes to followduring their break before the realwork started last Friday, andMorison admits the approach now isentirely different to what it waswhen he was breaking into theNorthampton side. “It was a lot more old school than itis now, no heart-rate monitors, noGPS, just run until you drop orsomeone’s sick,” Morisonexplained. “You do the runs justtrying to get in and if you’re lastyou’re last. “It’s all changed nowadays, and forthe better I think. Now you almosthave a pre pre-season before youcome back. It’s been quite nice thisyear finishing so late, there were acouple of weeks not doing anythingand just ticking over doing a fewbits, we didn’t have to do as much aswe normally do.

“We’ve come back in good shapeand that’s shown in the results of thetests we’ve done so far. Now it’sabout getting fitter and staying injuryfree.” Millwall were 90 minutes awayfrom reaching the Championship

last season before their 3-1 defeat toBarnsley in the play-off final, andMorison believes there is plenty ofroom for personal and teamimprovement. “We want to come back and goagain,” he said. “We want to do

better than we did last year. Peopleare always looking at you when youget a bit older to start falling off. Iwant to stay on the wagon andreplicate what I did last year. I thinkI can do better than I did last year. “I’ll be ready the season.”

NEIL HARRIS isn’t ruling outsigning another centralmidfielder – but he is wary ofblocking the path to the first teamfor some of Millwall’s youngprospects. Lions manager Harris wants twoplayers for each position, but at themoment has just three senior players– Jimmy Abdou, Ben Thompson andShaun Williams – competing for twomidfield spots. Harris signed George Saville onloan from Wolves last season, and hecould go down the same route if hefeels the squad needs strengtheningbefore League One kicks off onAugust 6.

Midfielders Kyron Farrell and KrisTwardek, who have come throughMillwall’s academy, signed new one-year deals in May, and both couldchallenge for spots in the first teamthis season. Harris decided against offering EdUpson a new deal this summer, withthe midfielder moving to MK Dons.Jack Powell was also released afterhis contract expired at the end ofJune. Harris gave youngsters Thompsonand Mahlon Romeo their breaks lastseason and watched their influencegrow after they cemented their first-team places. The Millwall boss could still add tohis squad, but he also wants tocontinue with the policy that was sosuccessful last season. “We monitor every position,“ Harris

said when asked if there were stillareas that needed strengthening. “YesI’d like two players for every positionbut it doesn’t necessarily have to betwo first-team players at anexperienced age with lots of games. “If I take two first-team players forevery position, where do the youngplayers go? It’ll be two players forevery position, or we have someonelike Aiden O’Brien, for example, whois an excellent centre-forward but isalso very good in the wide areas. “In central midfield last year we hadEd Upson who only started twogames there after the first week of theseason. We always had the option ofplaying him there, as we did withChris Taylor. “I am conscious of the fact that withShaun, Ben and Jimmy we have threeexcellent players and all three are

very capable of playing in a pair inmidfield. “But I’ve also got Kyron Farrellwho is a central midfielder. And if Ifollow the same policy as I have sinceI took over then Kyron will be givenan opportunity to impress in centralmidfield while we’re away in

Portugal and when we get back. “The young lads will get theopportunity to impress and if they’reready to take it, like Ben was afterChristmas, then brilliant. If they’renot then we’ll have to nurture them abit more or they might go out on loanand go from there.“


Boss Harris could still recruit –but not at expense of youngsters

MILLWALL MADE Irish defenderPaul Rooney their fourth signing thissummer. Rooney, 19, (pictured), will initially linkup with Justin Skinner’s EliteDevelopment Squad after his move fromDublin club Bohemians. Rooney made one senior start for Bohsin the League of Ireland this season andwas previously with St Patrick’s Athletic. Millwall boss Neil Harris, who hadalready signed David Worrall, GreggWylde and Shaun Hutchinson, welcomedRooney to the club this week and outlinedhis hopes for the youngster. “Paul came in for a few days last year toshow us his talent,“ Harris said. “He's beenplaying in the League of Ireland as ayoung man in a men's division sophysically he can compete. “Paul is at a good age and will comeinitially to work with Justin in the U21swith the hope that in the long run he candevelop into a first-team player. “But I'm not putting any pressure on him.He needs to come in, find his feet andenjoy himself. Fingers crossed itworks out.“

No rest for Romeo

MAHLON ROMEO barely got asummer break – but he’s ready forthe intensity of Millwall’s trainingcamp in Portugal.The 20-year-old defender flew to theCaribbean a few days after Millwall’splay-off defeat to join up with hisinternational colleagues for their 2017Caribbean Cup qualifiers. He was on the Antigua & Barbudateam for their 2-1 defeat to Puerto Ricoon June 4, before hopping on anotherflight to Antigua, where he played in the5-1 win over Grenada three days laterthat secured a place in the next round. And while his Lions team-mates wereenjoying themselves in Portugal,Bulgaria and Miami, Romeo had tomake do with a couple of weeks’ breakback in London before the start of pre-season training last Friday. Romeo will get to go to Portugal thisThursday, but it will be far from aholiday, with almost a week of three-a-day training and fitness sessionsawaiting the Lions squad. But little over a year after his futurewas in doubt following his release byGillingham, Romeo isn’t fazed by histruncated summer holiday. “I just tried to get as much rest aspossible [after the internationalfixtures],“ Romeo explained. “I didn’tgo anywhere, I just put my feet up. “Last summer, training in Portugalwas a great experience. I had onlysigned in the last week of the season soit was really important to get involvedwith the team. “A lot of our work [with Antigua] wewere doing at night, but I don’t thinkthat’s going to be the case in Portugal. “It was really intense last year and Idon’t think it’s going to beany different.“

Webster and Mark Beevers establishedthemselves as Harris’ preferred centre-back pairing in the second half of lastseason, but Beevers left to join Boltonthis summer after his contract expired. Craig missed six months last seasonthrough injury before being unexpectedlythrust back into the side for the play-offfinal against Barnsley in May, afterWebster injured his hamstring in thewarm-up. Lions captain Craig, 31, can also play atleft-back, but Joe Martin and ShaneFerguson are the more natural options inthat position. Hutchinson said when he signed that hewill be immediately targeting a place inHarris’ starting XI, but Craig stressedthat’s nothing he hasn’t faced before. “I’ve had competition for my place mywhole career,” Craig said. “That’s partand parcel of being a footballer. “We’ve got four very good centre-backshere now and competition brings out thebest in me. I had six months out last yearwhich was a very, very long time. For mepre-season is big. I look forward to thecompetition, that’s what football is allabout.”

STEVE MORISON hasadmitted he was “upset” and“angry” after he was denied theopportunity to lead Millwall outat Wembley in May’s LeagueOne play-off final. Morison was set to skipper the sideagainst Barnsley, but an injury toByron Webster in the warm-up meantthe armband reverted to club captain

Tony Craig. Striker Morison had captained theLions for 37 games after Craigsuffered a knee injury at the end ofOctober. Much of the pre-matchbuild-up had focussed on Morison’scareer journey from the non-league towhat it would mean to wear thearmband at Wembley. Instead, Craig was given thathonour as he started a seniorcompetitive game for the first time inseven months. It was a frustrating afternoon for aninjury-hit Millwall as Barnsley

claimed their place in theChampionship with a 3-1 win, andMorison, speaking exclusively to theNews, revealed the emotions he feltin the dressing room before kick-off. “It was a tough one,” Morison said.“I’d done all the formalities before thegame and obviously I expected towalk out [as captain]. When I didn’t ithurt me, but it was a decision themanager made and you have torespect that. “It wasn’t the best five minutes ofmy career but it’s done and dustednow and we move on.

“As soon as people start lookinginto it they find things that aren’tthere. Don’t get me wrong, I wasfrustrated, I was hurt, I was upset, Iwas angry, but I thought I had a prettygood game on the day and it didn’taffect my performance. “I always play angry, it’s just peopledon’t really notice it. I always got toldoff when I played nice.” Morison, however, had nocomplaints about the result. “It was just one of those things, afew things went against us on the day,we never really turned up.”
