Ok, i know that a lot of you guys aren't from England, so this might not seem to have immediate relevance to you, but seriously, this is IMPORTANT!
Please forward this email to anyone you think will care:
SAVE CAMDEN MARKET LONDON
Camden Council have given the go ahead for the wrecking balls to go in and
destroy Stables Market in Camden.
This means the end of The Proud Galleries (served notice closing in a couple
of weeks), the funky, vintage stores, Cyberdog, etc - you get the gist - one of the best things in all of London is about to be taken away from us.
What are they putting in its place? Boots, H&M and Topshop. I'm sorry to
those who like these stores, but that is just not the place for them.
PLEASE help us stop them from doing this by signing the petition:
If this link doesn't work from here, copy & paste it into your address bar at the top, or google it.
This could be the thin (or not so thin) end of the wedge. If mainstream consumerism & corporate culture is allowed to destroy Camden, what the hell will be next?!?!!
PLEASE REPOST! (anywhere, & to anyone you think might care)

What the ****?!!
I LIVE IN CAMDEN!
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ****ing way are they getting rid of the Stables Market! It's THE best place on the entire Camden street. Who the **** needs all that other mainstream ***** they have in West End and everywhere else in London! Seriously why take away the only alternative place in the ENTIRE ****ING LONDON just to slap in a load of preppy shitholes.
Urgh, I'm ****ed off now. Even if they take down Stables market the entire area is full of alt shops and thus alt customers who will not stand for it's destruction. Those shops will go bankrupt within weeks.
I've only been there once, but it is one of my favourite places, I can't think of another place like it. If people were so desperate to shop at Boots or Topshop they could just go to any other town in the UK and find it!
Feel free to PM me any time; whether you want support or just a chat! x

Nooo!! They can't get rid of ittt! It's one of my favourtie places in the world!! Why do we need more Boots and stuff? I like Topshop sometimes, but its nothing compared to the Stables market! Arghhh.
I saw this on the news a couple of days ago. I thought they were knocking it down but kinda re-building it? Although they did say it would just look like a shopping mall. But the stall holders can still apply for a pitch there or whatever.
And there are other parts of the market that will remain, like the one next to the tube station.
Isn’t it funny how day by day nothing changes but when you look back, everything is different…
you once called your brain a hard drive, well say hello to the virus.
Grr, topshop is all over the place, online, everything, Camden Market has so much more that you would never see or get anywhere else. *signs*
