Len has provided a really good and reliable service for many years and ii is totally unjust to force his business out of the Haggerston Railway arches.

I have delivered to Len and all the garages above, such lovely people. The rent increase is unfair
People in this trade are needed for the community and do a amazing trade.
Please save Len and all.

” In 2017, Transport for London who own the arches, confronted Len with an annual rent increase from £22,000 to £72,000. Such an increase makes Len’s business unviable since he cannot increase charges to the customers to cover it or increase the volume of repairs in the space he has.”

This was the very same scenario for a pal of mine, who tried the ‘petition route’ of higher-ups too.

But the Grenfell Fire, W11s 9/11, was the tipping point… Rotterdam became the safe and affordable new-base. A healing place, where the famous timber models of Westminster Abbey, designed and built for Queen Elizabeth II, kicked off – in the EU, rather than in Her own Borough.

Not a lot of people know that…

723 people at TfL are given salaries of over £100,000 a year and Sadiq Khan supports this.

Khan doesn’t care if people can afford to pay or not, look at his new ULEZ extension scheme, a moneymaking exercise hitting the poor who need to use their vehicles. Sonner he is out the better.

How on earth can a rent increase of 50k a year be justified, this is just like a criminal act. Even worse how can you do this to a small company that is providing a decent service, plus training and mentoring young people in the community?

It is scandalous, TFL really are the pits and Mr Khan just doesn’t listen to the people of London he is there to represent. London needs a new broom, someone who will pay attention and seek solutions to its problems. I moved away 20 years ago and don’t think I’d want to live in London now. Husband is the same and he was born in Stratford and brought up in Newham.

We all need you Len! This can’t happen ? Only just found out today. Is there any other way we can fight other than the petition?
