We, the undersigned, firmly oppose to the proposed closure of the weekday District Line service from Kensington Olympia.

Business is suffering. Direct train from Berkhamsted cancelled by southern trains and now the tube isn't running. Mid week is when all the trade exhibitions are on - lots of unhappy people stood at West Brompton station when we should be in Olympia doing business
