DEMONSTRATE TONIGHT AGAINST MEGA GAMBLING JOINT IN EARLS COURT RD

Demonstration here tonight.

Residents around Earls Court Road are up in arms over the plan for Silvertime(Silvermine, more like it) to open a mega gambling joint in the old Lloyds Bank Building.

When Silvertime tried to vary usage in Chinatown it met massive opposition. LINK and again in Harlesden LINK more protests.

This anti-social monster will open 24/7 and be on four floors

It will be much larger and in a more prominent location than the current Silvertime gambling joint. A resident representative said "We believe that the increase or expansion of these shops is not beneficial to the safer, healthier, and pedestrian-friendly high street that our community so desperately needs.

If this goes ahead it will undermine all the different initiatives that are being developed to support the recovery of our high street.

Inward investment into the area (such as upgraded hotels) will be deterred and place at further risk vulnerable people living in the area"

The Dame agrees with all this and encourages everyone to join the demonstration this evening at 6.00pm outside the old Lloyds Bank on the corner of Hogarth Rd.
