More lies from Lorraine Barter, there was a visible police presence on site for much of the day consisting of three uniformed officers. When I spoke to them they seemed to be perfectly happy with the party.

Why exactly would the police want to close it down? Last year was 100% legal and the music was turned off at 9pm on the dot in accordance with the license.

The ONLY complaint you can level at the organisers is they did not foresee the amount of rubbish left behind. In every other aspect of the party itself it was probably the best Royal Wedding Street Party in the Country.

Would be interesting to know what percentage of the party goers actually know what they're celebrating. (This applies all over the country not just this party.) Having chatted to 2-3 people yesterday about it who were i ntheir mid twenties I was surprised when asked that they didn't know and were actually embarrassed. "something to do with the Queen" was their answer. Very sad indeed.

Everyone else having a street party has applied for a licence there have been plenty of notices about this, plenty of time to do so, this is stupid and arrogant. Whilst no-one wants to be a party pooper this could easily get out of hand as it's not properly organised.

You do indeed only live once. So why spend it doing something so innately conservative as celebrating our outdated and undemocratic constitution? Like, "Wooo, the same woman has been in charge of us for 60 years and we haven't voted for her once and she hasn't said a single noteworthy thing in all that time. Let's PARTY."

Why not really go for it and race a bull down The Mall and straight through the gates of Buckingham Palace? That would be more exciting that going to a vicar's tea party in the Polygon.

Your missing the point.

The bull runs in Spain are a tradition that happens regularly - it's part of the culture.

I don't think those who just want at least a thought or two spared for those people who are having this literally on their doorstep are against fun.

Tell you what, why not let us know your address? Then we'll all turn up on your doorstep, thrash the place having lots of fun and then leave you with the mess.

Unless of course this is on your doorstep - in that case I'd make sure your house is locked up because believe it or not in the middle of all this fun fun fun, someone might try to burgle your house.

Last time I checked neither the Queen or the Royal Family are 'in charge of us'.

She's our head of state. In France they've just elected a head of state who is rejecting austerity and making a stand for the ordinary working man by making the bankers pay for their mistakes instead. He's spearheading a new movement that is spreading hope across Europe and has people believing that another way is possible - that the people don't have to live lives of misery as powerless slaves to the cruel gods of the markets.

Our head of state, meanwhile, is going to wave at us from a giant barge and open a leisure centre in Corby. Go us!

I can assure you now they cost police time alot more than one street party.

This is true. A second class degree in film studies from Southampton Institute doesn't write itself. It takes days of hard work.

They didn't apply for a license in time because a proper fully licensed event was being organised by Orange Rooms and Junk in co-operation with the authorities. This event is taking place on Monday.

This was seen by some as an attempt to commercialise last years street party and so they decided past the deadline to arrange their own.

There is strong suspicion that "Danny Baker" is a fake profile in order to avoid any bills or legal action.

Full licences are not required this year, by order of David Cameron! I think the only restriction is that through roads have to remain passable for emergency vehicles and local residents. It's only for one day, and how on earth did we manage in 1977 (Silver Jubilee)and 1953 (Coronation)? There is too much bureacracy these days, and even more interfering NIMBY's. As for litter ... did anyone see Bournemouth beach at the end of Saturday and Sunday last week?

Yes, there was. It's people like you that make this country the way it is. Everyone's too scared to have a bit of fun. Lighten up; it's one day of people having a few drinks and socialising.

This is very interesting apart from the fact it's wrong. The thing with the royal household is that it is unaccountable and its finances allowed to operate with a considerable degree of secrecy. Official figures regarding the cost of the monarchy don't include various things like round the clock security and royal visits, so the actual cost is more likely to be up to five times the published figure. We have the most expensive monarchy in Europe.

But do you know what? It wouldn't matter if they cost us nothing because this really isn't the point.

So this is just an idea. either you all take some black plastic bin liners with you & put your cans or rubbish in or contact a company that do bins ( outside shops) & have a few of them around. as long as people either take their rubbish or put it in the bins no one should moan about the refuse should they?

Actually, i think you should enroll into a second class degree in film studies if you think its such little work, and when you do i will point and laugh at you when you come to realize it takes 3 years of extraordinary hard work and talent to achieve a degree.

Do you not understand the incredible waste of revenue that is represented not only by the Civil List but in the maintenance of the grossly extravagant panoply of state as represented by the maintenance of six palaces on behalf of the monarch. And that is without the farcical extravagance represented by the state opening of parliament due to royal insistence in turning up in full regalia and no less than eight horse driven coaches of state the maintenance of which costs a cool million pounds a year.

its people like you that I have a real problem with mindless ill informed and subservient. Do you really have to doff your cap to these so called blue bloods ? Let me tell you that if they were deposed the nations income through tourism would at least treble as there is nothing quite like sensationalism to attract a crowd. If however you must grovel to these monarchist tyrants then I confidently predict that your kind will be reduced to museum relics within a few years or better still you will be able to accompany them into exile to some equally despotic state wherever. if they will have them that is.
What makes me laugh is that on the one hand you seem to favour a monarch and yet you dont want Charles. You cant just pick and choose. If you are a royalist you have to accept he will be king with god help us Queen Camilla. What a farce. Whats the alternative then Queen Kate ?? The monarchy is past its sell by date accept it.

Like, "Wooo, the same woman has been in charge of us for 60 years and we haven't voted for her once and she hasn't said a single noteworthy thing in all that time. Let's PARTY."

Why not really go for it and race a bull down The Mall and straight through the gates of Buckingham Palace? That would be more exciting that going to a vicar's tea party in the Polygon.

Last time I checked neither the Queen or the Royal Family are 'in charge of us'.

If you want the parasitical monarchs to remain you must accept that Charles and Camilla will be king and queen, you cannot pick and choose who you want, that’s called democracy.
How can you accuse others of being stuck in the past and still want William to be king.

Without a fair society Britain is going nowhere.

I would agree with you, but for one thing that would say no to it. Can you imagine how much worse we would of been off if a person like Thatcher was president she would of been the type of person that would make her self life time president and turn this country into a dictatorship, and would of been just as bad as Hitler and Stalin, such was her nature.

Exactly. Everybody went on their jolly way. Nobody bothered to stay and clean up the mess they'd made. Let someone else do it. Sod the residents. It was a great party though so who cares? When's the next one? People need to get a grip.

Well I'm going to the Official Mayflower Park Party.
Do I have to stay behind & clear up all the mess, or can I leave it for the Council to do on Wednesday !!!!!!!

Seriously though, IF people put rubbish in bins ( & council regularly emptied before overflowing ) this City would be a much cleaner & more welcoming place to live.
PS.. Throwing rubbish on ground is not just the fault of students, it appears all age ranges do it.

Happy Days !!!

In the Polygon, Portswood, Highfield. Swaythling, students are the primary offenders. Don't trot out the university line that everyone does it. Everyone does not: students do. The students are a blight on the city. They just want to party, always at other's expense.

To compare Stalin and Hitler to Thatcher is I think a bit unfair.
Those two were not in the same league as the sister of Satan

That is precisesly why we need a written constitution so that no one can abuse power, following the american example where presidents can only serve two terms and can be removed from office by impeachment where serious wrongdoing is proven. We have no say in what goes on in this country. That is why parliamentary elections are sadly meaningless since as they get to Westminster MPs ignore the electorate until the next election comes along. That is not democratic government. The british people need to be able to express themselves to live, and be enthusisatic about life in their own country. I am sorry but I see none of that in the UK. Instead I see repression, mass unemployment no enthusiasm and no positivity. Understand the problem and deal with it.We need a republic.

Money will corrupt, Even in America it could more easy to end up as a dictatorship even with there system, all it would take is one power hungry Millitary person with the backing of the financial world, there would go you written constitution and a dictator in its place.
I would keep the royals but thing them out, and only make it the parents and any kids that are under age to work, with the first in line, the rest can look after them selfs and work for a living.

God bless the Queen. I am just loving the bile filled hatred that the low lifes on here trot out. I imagine you lot, with raised veins and heartbeats, spitting out your anti monarchy rubbish all over your screens. If you don't like it, suffer, or move else where. I don't mind giving my hard earned to keep the institution going. I guess you two don't. LoL. Loving it.

The only raised veins and heartbeats seem to be coming from your very weak defence of the monarchy.
The anti monarchy posts on here seem, in my opinion to have a certain air of sadness about them. I for one do feel sorry for people like yourself who need almost to hero worship an old women who you don't know, will probably never meet and then admits to not minding giving up their "hard earned" (I hope thats wages and not benefits)to keep the institution going.
If you feel so insecure that you need to give away your hard earned, why not give to those in need, not someone who's family's stolen wealth is measured in billions
To put in simple terms, get a life.

The student scroungers at party central are at it again. As objections Highfield Residents Assoc made against their drinking dens make plain, all they are into is drinking, making noise, having fights, irresponsible sex and being social leeches. They pay no council tax, make no significant contribution to Southampton society (bar buying dope and coke) and are as dirty and irresponsible as unhousetrained puppies. Travel on the U1A any night and watch them drinking and defecating on it.
In Leeds, Belfast and other places, they have started arresting, jailing and expelling from university their party animals. In Southampton, these leeches continue to be a blight on the place. All they can do is drink and vomit. At least with intelligent puppies, we would rub their noses in it to teach them right and wrong. Students think they are better because they desecrate war memorials.
If a few dozen of these leeches were arrested and expelled from their party universities, their dim witted confreres would get the message. We who pay the piper should call the tune.

I'm afraid it's money earned, the hard way. Still, the fact that you needed to answer, says it all. Enjoy the weekend and the celebrations. I take it from your post that you are on Benefits, I understand why this week end comes hard to you. Chin up, both of them. Loving it.

Mate I work full time and probably have a better job then you and im 20.. so how about you jog with your stereotypical attitude. Guess we wont see you at the party ;)

I doubt that very much. If you have such a good job then why are you so bored. Possibly your job is part time. Sorry, did I want fries with that. No thank you.
