Stop ruining the area developing into something special by allowing hideous betting shops everywhere. You are encouraging gambling addictions and stopping money being used decently in the area.

We cannot afford any more betting shops in our neighbourhood - Haringey Council, help make the madness stop!

I believe it'll have a negative impact on the people living in that particular area.There's a lot of issues as it is.

The premises seems to have been unfairly and unlawfully taken overnight , without any notice, from its lease holder, which is tantamount to a serious offence. Its almost like in a law of jungle!

Do not want another betting shop as there are already plenty within the area, and strongly need a business that is going to add value and bring class to this residential area. Furthermore, local drug gangs use will only be increased to all our detriment.

There is already a problem of groups of men congregating outside the existing betting shops, and also the relatively new barbers shop scene of a recent shooing. These groups regularly get in the way of passers by, and can be very intimidating for my wife and daughter on their way home from work/school. The general tone of the parade has definitely been lowered by this activity. Haringey Council should be taking steps towards improving the area- another betting shop is the opposite of what the community needs.

there are enough men hanging about outside the existing betting shops- making the pavement crowded and impossible to walk through - it's intimidating as they appear to 'ogle' every woman that walks by! please no more betting shops- this is ridiculous- should NOT be allowed!!

My local area cannot cope with the further increase in anti-social behaviour and crime associated with the existing betting shops. In a poor mixed area this would be encouraging further poverty and reduced social conscience.

This is completely unnecessary and downgrafing to an area that has so much going for it.
