"This is potentially really bad for us," the owners wrote. "They want to stop anyone drinking outside except for a few tables, and impose other really difficult conditions on us. The pub will probably end up being sold and turned into flats if it goes ahead."
Journalist Lewis Goodall expressed dismay at the situation, stating, 'One of the best pubs in London struggling for survival because planning is stacked in favour of some powerful (likely old) NIMBYs. Everything that's wrong with Britain.'
Staff at the Sekforde reported that the council comes in 'every week monitoring the noise. At a pub. Completely absurd,' highlighting frustration over stringent monitoring.
Locals are urged to take action by emailing the Islington Council before December 17 to oppose the proposed licence changes that threaten the Sekforde's outdoor drinking space.
