Moving to attend @royalgreenwich.bsky.social commemoration of #Srebenica genocide. We should never forget this evil act or other unspeakable acts of genocide. More love and less hate, more understanding and less intolerance.

Delighted to see Network Rail have finally overpainted the aged graffiti on both sides of Angerstein bridge over Woolwich Road. Follows my intervention to use the overnight closure. Would be great to paint a train or just "Welcome to Charlton" one side, and "Welcome to East Greenwich " on the other!
