Save Brixton Arches: 3rd Anniversary Action
Brixton, London. Sun 4 Feb 2018
Potent Whisper is interviewed for TV
Andrew Coopers banner for the event and his sculpture of the 4-headed
monster that is Lambeth Labour Council
Sue Foster, Matthew Bennett, Council Leader Lib Peck and Jack Hopkins
They made some posters at a workshop before the event
and these were handed out
Posters list the dangers of the work on the arches - Fire risk and
particulates for businesses and people in the area
'Network Jail' - and the working is being carried out in breach of
the planning conditions laid down by Lambeth Council
which the protesters are demanding they should enforce. Potent Whispher
introduces the protest
and lays down why they are protesting - the fire risk,
problems with severely restricted emergency access
the general danger from dust and air pollution - which will make much
trading impossible, particularly in food
and the particular hazard from asbestos removal - there are no safety
measures to protect the local population
'Property Developers Parasites!'
We get more detail on the problems from another of the campaigners
'Make it Safe - Shut This Down'
