Wood Green M&S slated for closure
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

Hi Pavlos, I agree, I shouldn't have hijacked the thread and I am sorry. I would love to start a new thread and be able to organise the facts in a coherent way. Unfortunately, I have a young daughter and my mum (who suffers from Alzheimer's living with us), work full time, whilst my husband has to work away a lot - I do have the feeling this has become more by design than necessity
. I know ..... bring out the violins. But seriously, I am generally just too whacked to take this on and wish there were somebody out there who had the energy that I don't.I agree that the closure of a big store like M&S isn't to be taken lightly, as it can herald the slow but certain decline of a high street, and that of course brings lots of other issues along side it. I do take your point. I hope you get a good result.

Obviously you can't compare the loss of a retail space with the loss of a day centre. They come from different budgets and serve different parts of the population, but they are linked in a way.
The main concern here is not the loss of M&S--which is bad for the high road but so be it--but what will replace it? A high road full of betting shops and other elements that are hostile to local residents, including seniors and vulnerable people is a prime atmosphere for many social problems and the breakdown of community.
