Can i oppose a street party in my road?

I don't know how you would oppose a street party on your road, and I don't think that opposing it would be the best idea. You certainly wouldn't be winning any friends or allies by trying to stop their block party, and if these people are as awful as you're suggesting, you might just end up making things worse for yourself.

I would recommend just making a plan to be "unavailable" during the party time. Say you're going to a birthday party or seeing a friend from out-of-town or whatever. "Oh, I'm sorry. It sounds fun, but I already have plans that day." Or simply ditch out. Go to a matinee, grocery shopping, whatever.

The point is, you don't HAVE to attend, but trying to stop it is just not the best idea.

I doubt a lone voice would be able to stop the party.If you don't want to go then don't go,it is not obligatory.

As the whole cul de sac wants the party except you have you perhaps not stopped to think it is you that is the nasty person in the street not them?

If you went along you just might find you enjoy yourself and get to know your neighbours better.

You could always go to another street party I'm sure there will be plenty of them on jubilee day,somebody you know somewhere must be having one on their street you would probably enjoy a party with friends more than the neighbours.

I think trying to stop it would be more trouble and expense than was worth it ? Its only for a short time. They will be onto you for a contribution I dare say.You need not pay that. The people on my street are arranging some kind of a party and have asked us for £15.we havent replied.

You don't have to attend, you could maybe go away for the weekend if you don't want to go. As you live in a cul-de-sac I don't think you can stop it happening, as it won't affect through-traffic. So long as it doesn't go on too late I don't think there's anything you can do about it.

Why would you want to stop a whole street party just because you don't like your neighbours? You don't have to go. Say you are busy. Let others have their fun.

Well, you seem nice. Your street wants a party, well your finances street anyway, and you want them to stop because you don't like them?

Yeah, go a look at yourself in the mirror and ask if you not wanting an entire street to have fun is fair. For gods sake, it's there fun, you can just not attended.

You seem a petty and self centered little girl.

you can oppose it - but if the majority want it - then the Council will probably give permission...and your reasons have to be reasonable as to why you wish to object.

why don't you stay indoors and not mix - i am sure they won't want you there anyway bringing the moral of a happy day down!!

edit: go...have a glass of wine and i bet you will have a great day....i dare ya!! lol

Good evening Denise,

Yes you are mean.

Join in the fun and you might even enjoy it!

Well, you seem nice. Your street wants a party, well

My neighbours want to arrange a street party for jubilee, and as much as its a lovely idea, they are mostly arrogant, nosey, annoying folk I don't wanna socialise with. Yeah call me mean but I have to live in my cul-de-sac due to finance. Given the chance I'd move to a nicer road. I DONT want to have to mingle with these idiots.

Am I able to oppose this party and stop it going ahead??? or do I have to like itand lump it??

you're mean
