The Legal Challenge Is In

By The Boy -

A legal challenge has now been lodged against the Council’s decision to set up the HDV (the demolition company).

A huge amount of work has gone into bringing this case before the Courts – and special thanks are due to Gordon Peters for this.

This could take several months to resolve. In the meantime we can help by spreading awareness about just how damaging the HDV, demolition and social cleansing all are.

Northumberland Park Decides – Information Evening

7.00-8.30pm, Thursday 17 August
St. Paul’s (C of E) Church, 60 Park Lane, N17 0JR
(Corner of Vicarage Road and Park Lane, near Spurs Ground)
All welcome

Points to be mentioned include:

• What are Council promises worth? Hear and see the damning evidence

• See maps of the demolition areas – homes and businesses under threat

• Will we be priced out of the area? What can we do about it?

• What’s the reality of the Right of Return pledge? Evidence from Love Lane

• Video film of protest and resistance

• Discussion and ideas – learning from one another

• All welcome: invite your neighbours and friends

Help with leafleting the estate is very much needed. We also need to collect 100 resident signatures to get the case for a Residents’ VOTE on demolition onto the agenda of the NPK Residents Association.

Please reply to this email or call 07847 714 158 if you can help.
