Camden environment and biodiversity for sale

The Planning Committee of 30.3.23 gave consent to another application in breach of Camden's Open Space and Biodiversity “policies” (A2 and A3).

This is despite Camden's declaration of a "Climate and Ecological Emergency"!

The highly contentious O2 planning application will be considered today (30th March) at 7 pm.
