Danny's Days - 27th January 2025
This week we take a breath after a busy Burn’s night weekend - each year this seems to be become an even more popular celebration. This week is Chinese New Year and, coincidentally, we had some Chinese visitors last week who were researching how the UK meat industry operates and some of our cooking trends. Next on our calendar is Valentine’s Day in a couple of weeks. It’s a non-stop start to 2025.
Please keep your eyes peeled for a special email coming over the next couple of days about the Holland Park Roundabout changes TfL are proposing to do. Our local MP Joe Powell is aware of the situation but we need to write to him so he can fully understand the feeling of his constituents. There couldn’t bea worse time for our local shops to be dealing with this potential chaotic disaster, as the issues with shoplifting (especially the beaty products and specialist wine shops in Holland Park), higher national insurance and inflation along with challenging trading times, this TfL proposal will create huge congestion and deter customers visiting their local shops.
We will soon be urging people to email Joe Powell MP and our local GLA member James Small-Edwards and TfL to show everyone’s feelings on the matter.
The very best wishes,
Danny
