Planning decisions are and should remain issues that are decided on the strength of the case each way. Not popularity poll
Hilarious that people move to Curtain Road, one of the busiest streets in London, when there are plenty of villages in the Cotswolds they can fuck off to if they want a quiet life.
Just another nail in the coffin of arts and culture. We’re gonna be a nation of unaffordable housing with no venues or nightlife.
100% the correct decision, we should shut down every club and pub in London, every single nightlife venue should be shut down, nobody should be allowed to have fun or enjoy life at any moment, they must all be as miserable and hateful of their lives as the councillors who make these decisions.
Imagine moving to Curtain Road, Shoreditch, and complaining about the nightlife and noise. NIMBYs never cease to amaze me.
That’s because local councils don’t want arts and culture. They are run by NIMBYs who want people to go to work, go home and to pay taxes as a form of entertainment.
Councils are collaborating with NIMBYs in actively trying to create a city more sterile and boring than Zürich or Dubai could ever dream of being.
I am sick and tired of councils pandering to NIMBYs who move into vibrant areas and then complain about everything. If these people want to live silent boring sterile lives why don’t they bugger off to live in rural Cumbria?
Curtain Road is not where you go for the quiet life
I swear councils just do what they want and totally ignore consultations or stats. I’ve seen first hand and read about countless outcomes that have gone the other way too.
NIMBYs strike again, what a fucking shock. The sooner they go the better.
>One neighbour had threatened to plaster high-definition cameras around Curtain Road to catch guests he suspected were using illegal substances and throwing up on the pavement
What the fuck is wrong with people?
>the club nights it had run in the past year had not seen “a single complaint or police call-out”, a point echoed by others.
So the “fear” of something that hadn’t happened was enough to reject the licence?
> the Town Hall refused the licence as it would mean another late-night premises in an area subject to stricter licensing rules due to a saturation of licensed premises.
Just utterly stupid logic. We can’t put a nightclub next to all the nightclubs because it might be too noisy. Lmao
Young people and nightlife supporters need to start running as local councillors. It’s the only way to get stupid decisions like this blocked.
118 Curtain Road
^ the location
Rights of NIMBYs’ who live in these nightlife areas and intractable council licensing departments should be the first thing the new night tsar tackles.
What made me chuckle was that Hackney designated Shoreditch a Special Policy Area in 2018, pretty much perfect alignment with when Shoreditch started to really go down the pan.
Remove these licensing powers from the boroughs and give them to City Hall. It’ll be more efficient, more consistent, better planned for an eminent global city, and stops each borough trying to take the ‘good’ stuff, and give the ‘bad’ stuff, from/to other boroughs.
Nimbys low key run the city
boomers and older gen X just want civilisation to be focused on maintaining their house prices

And that’s entirely correct
