LBTH Licence Review Hearing

A formal hearing was held this evening by LBTH to review Mango's license. Having listened carefully to evidence given by both sides the council has found in favour of the residents and has revoked Mango's licence.

Mango's have the right to appeal. If they do, the appeal will be held at the Magistrates' Court to which everyone has the right to attend.

Pennington Street residents are now an important step closer to a long-term solution to the violence, noise, disruption and general anti-social behaviour that Mango's attracts to the street.

We are not there yet. Please continue to gather evidence and to leave comments on the blog. Tonight's result should make it clear to everyone that the situation is not hopeless. We will get there in the end.
