The most recent was the Cadogan application to tear down the Curzon. Some fine speeches from objectors and vociferous noises from the packed house clearly had a big influence. Warwick was outrageous in his chairmanship. He and Bore tried to prolong the meeting going round and round the table until the councillors approved Cadogan's appalling scheme, but the ever more angry crowd gave succour to the minions on the committee who finally threw it out. <br /><br />It helped that the Curzon themselves were opposing the scheme which sadly can't be said of whoever ran the Odeon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1690720220183337557.post-18606984296120222872015-09-11T19:35:36.758+01:002015-09-11T19:35:36.758+01:00The next big scandal is around the corner.

Is this the government’s interpretation of democracy?<br /><br />Saving the second largest screen in London, used for premieres, is vital at a time when the government is rightly promoting film-making in London<br /><br />For reasons unknown, I believe English Heritage / Historic England glossed over the important art deco original features extant at the cinema and failed to grasp the cinema’s historic importance.<br /><br />London's priceless cultural capital is disappearing rapidly, replaced by buy-to-leave investment vehicles for overseas speculators. This is short-termism at its very worst. Time after time, The Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea’s Planning Committee favours developers over the taxpayers it should represent.<br /><br />Please call in the plans.Keith Barker-Main, Londonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12528699743932149063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1690720220183337557.post-1251433250608387942015-09-11T10:17:11.291+01:002015-09-11T10:17:11.291+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.Keith Barker-Main, Londonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12528699743932149063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1690720220183337557.post-68406119153518034222015-09-11T07:01:51.779+01:002015-09-11T07:01:51.779+01:00Lets be honest Dame - these decisions to destroy o...Lets be honest Dame - these decisions to destroy out Communities and way of life is a directive right from the top . The sooner that people wake up to this reality, the better off we will all be . If Councils can ignore petitions out of hand and cosy up to Foreign Money , it just shows where the real power lies, at the bank and not the Ballot Box .
