@mayorofhackney street markets are under threat all over London. We know that with the right approach they can grow and change in the interests of the people who work in them. The 2022 plan was a major step forwards. Please do what you can to save the Shopping Village!
Solidarity to our friends in Ridley Road.
What are you doing @hackneycouncil?

"Hackney council, for their part... did not offer a time frame for reopening... They did not explain why the council hadn’t taken over the lease of the site, as pledged in 2022."
@hackneycouncil, how can you refuse to even engage like this?

Massive tower block development planned for Dalston’s Kingsland Shopping Centre
opendalston.blogspot.com/?m=…
75% of all of the "green" spaces and children's playgrounds will be on a 2nd floor raised concrete podium & on 7th to 12th storey rooftops
The main ground floor kids playground gets an average 2 hours sunlight over only 12% of its area
PR is total greenwash
