NO DOLCE VITA FOR NEIGHBOURS OF HARRY'S BAR, K'BRIDGE

The billionaire owner of Dolce Vita Harry's Bar opposite Harrods is Sir 'Shifty' Phillip Green's best friend, Richard Caring.
Neighbours of this flash and vulgar place find Mr. Caring's attitude towards them most 'uncaring'.

Ever since its opening, this place has been a law unto itself. 
Every planning and licencing law is disregarded by the management with council officers seemingly reluctant to ever enforce.

Image 1 shows tables, chairs and blankets cluttering the pavement at 02.08 in the morning-five hours after they are supposed to be cleared.
Image 2 shows tables and chairs already in place every morning at 7.10 am-2 hours before the permitted time.

Is this because Mr. Caring is just too rich and powerful; or is there a more sinister reason behind this 'hands-off' attitude?
Residents are beginning to wonder why the owner of Caprice Holdings gets treated with kid gloves yet when some small and powerless cafe steps over the line the council officers come down on them like a ton of bricks.

  1. It seems like this company has got one of the enforcement officers to heel.....

    1. ALL of the responsible officers in their pockets - maybe resulting in a comfortable reward.

  2. This is the kind of opportunity where the Leader of the Concil, Cllr Campbell, could create some credibility for herself with residents by instructing Officers to make sure that this establishment complies with the regulations. And she could also secure for herself some much loved publicity. Maybe even on TV.

    1. Hmm, well thought out. However, have you considered that the owner may be a member of the same cabal, as Dizy Lizzy?

  3. Have you ever heard of a phrase, "One law for the rich/elite and another for poor" applies here. That's why when those in the circle gets in trouble, they just get a slap on the back of their hands and gets away with it.

    1. Or, 'birds of feather flock together'- in this case ignoring any transgressions, which may impede on their profits/popularity.
      In other words - BUSINESS AS USUAL at The Hornets' Nest - even under the new leadership. Hyenas do not change their spots because the stench of the cadaver has changed.

  5. Correction - Image 1 shows a time of 00:18 and not 02:18 - Nevertheless this is still an outrageous breach of the rules.
