The Quick and the Dead
John Herod: This is my town! If you live to see the dawn, it's because I allow it. I'm in charge of everything! I decide who lives or who dies!

Any of the other options would be better than G and with these options available it's astonishing that digging up precious green space is even being considered. Have your say here.

They can stick a corpse in my garden, good rates available
D&M could start a new line in corpse vans, parked on our pavements. Anyone who complained could simply be dismissed as a middle class NIMBY. Problem solved!
No problem with using the Recreation Ground provided they just bury the bodies, returf and allow people to continue to play games on top. The bodies won't mind and I'm perfectly happy with the idea of playing football above a few rotting corpses.
They could put the names of the dead on the noticeboard.
There are an awful lot of middle-class NIMBYs about, you know, Nick.
Cremate
Just have the funeral car slow down through Peckham - someone is bound the coffins.
Hmmm... good day to bury bad news. Look out for a another couple of Tesco Locals to be slipped into the planning department.
No more burials is the obvious option. It's just not practical in a crowded city like this.
Would the Broca or El's Kitchen be interested in organic, locally sourced Soylent Green?
What about putting them under roads whenever they get re-surfaced. You could even have a plaque.
Why not hand cuff one to Hugh? Thereby giving the relatives some much needed mourning time and increasing hughs chance of pulling by approximately 321%
what to do indeed.
Outlaw burials. Cremation all the way
Wouldn't burying outlaws in Honor Oak make the problem even worse?
Perhaps disposal via fly tipping could be an option?
