If the market was demolished, said one of the residents, ‘we would’ve just been pushed further and further out. This is a process of social cleansing and gentrification.’

, London, private landlord Grainger PLC announced it had scrapped its multimillion-pound project.

In a major announcement this week, Grainger confirmed it had abandoned the plans, drawn up in 2008, citing ‘rising costs’ and the strength of local opposition. It previously denied claims of discrimination. Campaigners, backed by Haringey Council, are now calling on Mayor of London Sadiq Khan to support their plans to restore the site, provide a temporary market, and offer an urgent extension to its financial package for traders.

The West Green Road/Seven Sisters Development Trust is now urging the London mayor to back its ‘ground-breaking’ community plan to refurbish the market, which secured planning permission in 2019. Miss Huxley said that every day the market remains closed, the Latin American community is missing out on vital services and a safe space – something of particular concern during the pandemic.
