@bridgewithout No, it's not, but I think we could argue that there are no good reasons for Southwark not to bring rules in line with Lambeth
@bridgewithout @21chomefront And for Southwark committee meetings see rule 1.5 http://t.co/p9ZH2WddEI
@bridgewithout @21chomefront Southwark rule 1.9 for Council Assembly http://t.co/kXu2XVmLeg
@bridgewithout @21CHomeFront Oh yes, in many ways Lambeth meetings much more controlled/rigged than Southwark ones
@21CHomeFront @bridgewithout See page 6 here: http://t.co/AKYCsPkFo5
@21CHomeFront @bridgewithout "Everyone is welcome to record meetings ... using whatever, non-disruptive, methods you think are suitable."
RT @coyleneil: Guy on a modern unicycle heading up Borough High St. As you do in #se1 - sorry wasn't quick enough with camera.
@GrahamNeale Depends on what's on the agenda!
GrowUpBox Looking for a restaurant/cafe to showcase our aquaponic salad, herbs and microgreens. #localfood #freshasyoulike #aquaponics
@bridgewithout This comment on Guardian nicely debunks the spin of this week's announcement: http://t.co/rVtJZDtda8
@bridgewithout The *actual* rules changed last September and refer to councils giving "reasonable facilities" for reporting. Suitably vague!
@bridgewithout Yes it's a welcome change of emphasis but not binding. "should allow" not "must allow".
@bridgewithout Basically you can do audio at Council Assembly (only) without prior consent - anything else needs chair's agreement

@bridgewithout It provides a good reason to ask them to change the constitution though
@bridgewithout I don't think Pickles' latest document actually overrides the Southwark constitution which sets rules on this.
@bridgewithout I'm planning to write to Southwark to ask them to adopt Lambeth's v sensible policy on audio/video.
