@greenbenali @SaveSobell @islingtongreens Well said! Sobell ice rink is important to the local community, it shaped me to who I am today, I was a boy from an Islington council estate and Sobell ice rink was the start of my journey to a better life. Sort it out @Cllr_NTuran

.@Cllr_NTuran in the @islingtongztte “the ice rink had 590 users per week, rather than the originally stated 475. We apologise for any confusion". Yet @IslingtonBC's report still states 489 users. This flawed consultation shows the council's contempt for the #islington community

[Save Sobell Ice Rink @SaveSobell]

We are disappointed by @IslingtonBC's Sobell ice rink decision report which still contains erroneous information. The pre-determined, ill-informed report treats the community with contempt. Questions submitted to Full Council are still unanswered. @Cllr_NTuran has gone on leave.

[Save Sobell Ice Rink @SaveSobell]

THE FIGHT CONTINUES...
We are calling on the community to WRITE TO ISLINGTON COUNCILLORS requesting that the decision is 'called in' to ensure the decision is fully reviewed. They have until 2nd August to call in the decision.

Islington needs genuine, local, diverse sport. Future generations should enjoy the same opportunities we've had to learn to skate and participate in sports locally. https://t.co/MkCcsdXKHT

Islington Labour would be making a mistake to close down the borough's only ice rink

We're calling on local Councillors to join us @islingtongreens and call the decision in

@cycleoptic @LeFouPedalant @IslingtonBC @IslingtonLabour @thameswater Thames water have provides the money for compensation for the damages. However islington council are choosing to not spend it on the rink, but to build a soft play instead

[Islington Tribune @IslingtonTrib]

Campaigners who want the ice rink back at the Sobell Centre brought a carnival of protest to the steps of the Town Hall throughout last night's full council meeting

[Liverpool Road Clean Air 💙 @LucyFacer]

@CarolineRussell @SaveSobell She also very eloquently made a really important point that spaces for teenage girls in Islington are very limited. We have lots of funding going into great new football pitches which have limited appeal to teenage girls.
