We are opposed to the George IV pub (currently known as Music Bar) on Brixton Hill becoming a Tesco. We don't want to lose another pub and we are concerned at the negative impact on local businesses. We call on the council to work with us to find a way to save this historic music venue, and to oppose further supermarket expansion in Brixton.
The council has not yet responded to our initial inquiry about the George IV but we are preparing a formal letter to demand a public hearing. Post this link on Facebook to keep the pressure on them. Call your local representative today and tell them we will not accept another supermarket in this spot.
August 6, 2012
We are approaching one thousand signatures and we need to hit that mark before our meeting with the council. Post the petition link on your Facebook page right now and text three friends to ask them to sign. This momentum is our best chance to stop Tesco from taking over our neighborhood venue.

This will just kill the smaller shops nearby. Bad idea for the community.

Keep Brixton independent. We have enough supermarkets already and losing our local pubs is a joke.
