hopefully they catch the wankers that done it, unfortunately now its not safe to be out in certain areas past 11 at night, quite sad really.3

With the quality of those pictures I would be very surprised if those two are not picked up within 24 hours. When cctv surveillance results in getting violent individuals like these off our streets as fast as possible I find it difficult to argue against their presence.14

I'd hope they'll be banged up and off the streets for a considerable period of time although we all know that's unlikely sadly.
I hope your friend's son can cope with the mental side @Algarveaddick . The physical wounds heal but you never stop being wary and anxious in similar circumstances after an experience of that nature.18 -
Agreed about CCTV, and these bastards are almost certainly 'known' to the police.Red_in_SE8 said:With the quality of those pictures I would be very surprised if those two are not picked up within 24 hours.

Speedy recovery to your friend's son.0 -
I've had my jaw broken, it is without doubt the most painful injury I have ever sustained. I hope your friends boy is on the mend soon mate0

Hope they get the cowards, i suspect they will......but they can look forward to the usual light sentence with their hard luck sob stories.2

I think it’s laughable that you think you can’t go out past 11 but hey ho.palarsehater said:

would you venture out in Peckham at midnight?, as that's where the crime took place - i personally wouldn't but that shouldn't be the case.kentaddick said:

I used to live in Peckham years ago, my perception is that it is considerably safer now, but sadly there's a risk anywhere that you might meet some scumbags. I was last there about 4 weeks ago and it felt a lot less menacing than Bexleyheath. Hope your friend's son is better soon and that these lowlifes are caught.

You can get attacked anywhere late at night - sometimes it's down to being a bit streetwise to avoid stuff and sometimes you're just in the wrong place at the wrong time.
I've lived all round SE London and can say it feels safer in a lot of areas than it used to. You seem to be most at risk between the ages of 16 and 25.6 -
Thanks Len. Yes someone else said the same about the mental scars on facebook.LenGlover said:I'd hope they'll be banged up and off the streets for a considerable period of time although we all know that's unlikely sadly.

I’ve been drunk in Peckham a few times. Half decent night out nowadays. So yes, I have.palarsehater said:

I suppose today he should thank himself lucky he wasn't stabbed.
Hope he recovers quickly and those bastards are caught and heavily punished.0 -
I cannot believe Peckham or Brixton are as bad as they were in the early 80s - back then I ran a group of betting shops in those areas and used to drink regularly in what were considered no-go areas. I never felt unsafe, but I did know a lot of locals so perhaps that helped.palarsehater said:

They’re not, they’re getting gentrified, Brixton especially. Peckham still has a bit of a weird divide, white yummy mummy types sitting in the cafes whilst Nigerian background working class people working in the market stalls etc and seem to exist independently from each other but in the same place. And hipsters as well.bobmunro said:

Loafers, no socks brigade no doubt. It’s been 30 years since I regularly drank in Peckham, and if the fecking hipsters are there it will be another 30 years (I wish).kentaddick said:

It’s cos of the overground access to shoreditch Plus shoreditch now being an expensive shithole rather than just a shithole.bobmunro said:

Peckham is (usually) a decent night out these days. The only place in SE London I wouldn't go out drinking in is Catford Broadway, and even that is getting there now.kentaddick said:

I like gentrification to an extent (better night life etc) but you need to maintain affordable and council housing.3 -
I think a lot of it depends on who you are. As a fifty year old man, I expect I'd probably be safer in most circumstances to a nineteen year old.palarsehater said:

Wow. It’s like when a few of us got a cab after a night out a few years ago, the cab driver called Deptford “west Greenwich”.kentaddick said:

Deptford is worse, but fuck it. The way coppers are pulled off the street and seconded into taskforces and offices it's a wonder anyone from the 50 is visible post 10pm these days.3

Is your mates son white, @Algarveaddick ?
Just wondered if this could possibly be a racially motivated attack?0 -
part of Deptford is in West Greenwich ---i lived in Deptford Green for over 10 years our voting ward was West Greenwich.0

I grew up down the road in Brockley and have known from an early age they’re are some proper c*** knockin about the area such as the two attackers
Growing up in and around the area doesn’t make what happened to the victim any less likely to happen to me, but you hopefully pick up to avoid conflict from an early age. Sounds like wrong place wrong time and unfortunately scum bags like this hunt in packs and given it might be in their neck of the woods they probably felt safe in numbers etc as they probably know a lot of people
In all my time living in this part of the world and that’s 36 years now, I’ve never felt unsafe. Hopefully will continue that way
Re: the mix of the area kentaddick has it right. Everywhere in London has become gentrified now because of the price of property. We haven’t quite got the loafers and no socks brigade, but we have got the top knots and mental alternative creative types of about 25 who probably grew up in the leafy parts of the U.K. and to me I do chuckle when I hear their accents in the pub
Yes unfortunately we have the yummy mummy brigade as well who in a million years won’t even fathom what it’s been like for some of the natives who have grown up in the rougher parts. Winds me up a tad to be fair. They wander round obliviously. My old landlords, the chap who worked for google and the woman was itv and have now moved from Brockley to the chilterns, actually called out a poncy Japanese restaurant on lordship Lane as being too gentrified and attracting yummy mummies etc. I couldn’t believe it. Pot kettle and all that
They talked to me about the wickham arms round the back of Brockley and said ‘oh what a traditional pub’
I thought, there’s no way you would’ve been seen dead in here 20 years back8
