MICHAEL FONTANE

What do you like best about Southwark?
I like the diversity of people, something new and exciting happening every day. It has everything the West End's got.

What is your favourite place in Southwark?
The Review Bookshop on Bellenden Road. It's my little secret tucked away in the corner - it’s my Waterstones in Peckham.

What would you like to change about the borough?
Get rid of all the yellow lines; introduce free parking on weekends, and get rid of the bad press the borough gets.

What effect is piracy having on your business?
Obviously, this is detrimental but its not just a Southwark problem, it's a global problem. I don't know how they’re going to stop it, something needs to happen soon or it’s goodbye to your local independent record store.
