Traders evicted from Elephant and Castle shopping arcade as private landlord hands back control of β€˜struggling’ retail space to Southwark Council. Yes, it's not just residents that have been screwed by this disastrous 'development'. southwarknews.co.uk/area/elephant-…

Meanwhile Space was always absolutely terrible at 'managing' this space. Traders and campaigners said when the plans were announced that it would not attract enough footfall nor be a suitable site for kiosks. Sad that traders felt they had no choice but to give it a go!

Profit driven construction, development & regeneration is killing people. We need our government to protect us with strong regulation and enforcement. There must be prosecution of those who are criminally culpable. πŸ’š #Justice4Grenfell #Grenfell
