William Blake was an enlightened artist and writer. We should protect the history around his era, so future generations can visit his life and times.

I am a classical composer, Inspired by his poetry and visionary spirit, I composed a cycle of symphonic songs based on Blake’s poems, entitled Symphonic Blake. For me, Blake is not only a great poet and artist, but also a visionary whose work continues to inspire artists across generations. That is why I strongly support preserving the place where this great artist-prophet lived and worked. Protecting this heritage means preserving a vital part of our shared cultural and artistic history.

William Blake is the most important cultural figure in the history of Britain, and terribly underrepresented in our institutions.

William Blake is regarded as a fully realized soul and a profound prophet who intuitively foresaw the arrival of Sahaja Yoga and its spiritual message. Blake’s famous aspiration to build "Jerusalem" in England is interpreted by practitioners as a prophetic vision of spiritual awakening and the global spread of self-realization. As a spiritual meditation practitioner from Australia, I support to save William Blake’s London home as a cultural center who was renowned poet painter and visionary.

William Blake was responsible for some of the most important poems, songs and artworks in history. Added to this, Blake was also a key influencer for other artists, inventing a relief-etching method, as well as inspiring pre-Raphaelites and modern psychology with his defiance and focus on the inner mind. His home will serve to educate and inspire generations to come and does not deserve to be turned into luxury flats!!!

Because WB was one of the greatest man in what he created and what he knew and stood for. As a Realised soul he was often misunderstood, mankind was not ready for him then, and wouldn't be either now, unfortunately.

This is part of our cultural heritage and must be saved. London doesn't need any more luxury apartments but we do need to recognise our history
