We the undersigned strongly object to the unjust decision by Lewes Town Council to force Lewes Cinema out of the All Saints Centre and take-over their screenings. We wish to express our dissatisfaction with this decision and in particular the total lack of consultation with the cinema and the public.
We call upon the council to reverse this decision and engage in full and fair consultation with Lewes Cinema. We give our full support to Lewes Cinema's continued operation.

Ridiculous decision. Who gave the council the right to just bully the cinema out? No consultation at all. Typical.
This is such a joke. Leave the cinema alone! We go there every weekend and the town council is just ruining a great thing for the community.
Absolute madness. Lewes needs this place. Stop acting like you know what the public wants when you never even asked us.
My kids love the weekend screenings. Why fix what isnt broken?? LEAVE IT ALONE.
Upsetting to hear this. Hope they change their mind and listen to the people for once.

Used to go here all the time when I lived in town. Really sad to see the council being so greedy and short sighted.
