MP Catherine West has started a petition and is going to see M&S execs so if you'd like to see the store remain open -- and improve please sign the petition.
Even more importantly than the store staying open is the impact its closure could have on the high road.
Best,
Rachella

Perhaps you could give evidence of how M&S " sponsors " Israel.
The company states, "We deal with ( Israeli ) politicians and officials, in government and opposition. We do not support or align ourselves to political parties and make no political donations".
Lets keep to the original assertion.
Still waiting for Pav's evidence.
while MandS have definitely distanced itself from Israel in the past ten years, it still has connections, but not more so perhaps than other corporations which support Israel. Here is a link which, I think, is a balance view
Thanks for that, Philip.
I can see nothing there that says M&S sponsors Israel. They buy in foodstuffs ( mainly fruit and vegetables ) as a normal commercial transaction.
If anybody objects to this, they could first look at their computers, televisions, DVD players, cellphones, and cameras to check if they have been wholly or partly produced under appalling conditions in China - another country with a disgraceful human rights record - and go and demonstrate outside Currys.
I'd be happy if they turned the Wood Green store into a Simply Food. I guess the main point is that first the company left the Wood Green store to rot and now it's leaving a street that suffers horribly from the "value market" mentality most retailers on the street seem to have.
Haringey council is also now asking M&S to reconsider, see http://www.haringey.gov.uk/news/mands
I hope so, even if it just focused of the damage done to that lovely old building. I don't know when your after photo was taken, but it looks like hell compared to the one above.
To be honest, I'm more concerned with the closure of the day centres for the elderly and the disabled in Haringey than the local M&S store. It would be great to see some of this passion for the continuation of these. Sorry to be such a kill joy.
