Tower Bridge was raised in salute on Friday lunchtime as the vessel that carried the coffin of Sir Winston Churchill along the Thames in 1965 made the same journey 50 years later.
Long Lane was closed to traffic on Friday afternoon after a hole appeared in the road.
Waterloo Library in Lower Marsh is to be shut down and the site sold off by Lambeth Council under plans revealed this week.
14 members of Parliament have signed an early day motion in the House of Commons demanding that "that the police act immediately" to create a 'buffer zone' around a controversial abortion clinic in Southwark.
Detectives from the Met's Flying Squad are appealing for witnesses following an armed robbery at a shop in Abbey Street on Thursday.
