Now, I'm not that keen on Camden itself, but the fault for that I lay at the doors of the Britpop boom of the nineties and the chain stores that are slowly starting to claw their way along Chalk Farm Road. London Underground's insistence that they can't use the current Camden Town station but need to instead rebuild it with a large shopping area and expensive flats seems more an attempt to cash in on an attractive area whilst destroying it at the same time, taking out the Electric Ballroom and the market behind it. Now, I'm no expert, but I'd love to see how a new station would allow them to stop having to close at the weekend, when access for them isn't much different to any of the other inner London stations.

Anyway, Support the campaign against London Underground's development proposals.
