We hear a lot about pubs closing but, in the last 10yrs, we've lost 50% of our music venues in London. Please share if you too are concerned about what's happening and sign up to support the @WeLoveHackney campaign for a better night time for all. egi.co.uk/news/cooking-up-a-…

London’s local authorities should be supporting this booming creative industry - not throwing up new barriers. #LDNchefs

London’s food scene is booming – as the number of restaurants has increased, so has the number of chefs – which has tripled over the last 10 years. #LDNchefs

This group is doing *actual* work to salvage and protect East London's vivid and creative nightlife against #HackneyCouncil's ridiculous, draconian licensing policies. Shame our highly-paid @nightczar seemingly is unable or incapable! #Hackney

Our fight is CLEARLY in the public interest. Sadly Hackney continues to run up outrageous legal costs in an apparent effort to scare us off and avoid a full hearing.

We’re not getting a decision today. The judge has retired to consider and will issue her ruling soon, probably next week. In the meantime, please keep spreading the word and remind your #Hackney friends they can sign up here: welovehackney.org #savenightlife #welovehackney

We’ve just arrived at the High Court for a hearing to make sure we can challenge Hackney’s controversial licensing policy *without* legal costs spiralling out of control.

Our council are throwing everything at it to defend the fact they did nothing to consider the impact of their new policy on youth employment, LGBTQ+ culture, or our diverse communities. The court has already agreed this can legitimately be challenged.
