Up from where? Enough to make it a viable business against rising East London rents?
I was responding to your point that it was likely due to new methods of consumption rather than a collapse of the pound due to Brexit. I.e.:
I suspect that the digitisation of print and the changing consumption models has more to do with it than pure Brexit.
If your point was about renting costs in London, I happily concur that this likely makes it tough for any independent shop.

My various points are that changes in consumption models, driven by broader technology trends, in the context of publishing space that has been struggling for market share as they compete against a burgeoning choice of entertainment options and rising retail space prices may form a larger part of the issue. The drop in exchange rate might have been the final straw for the camel, but the final straw is not wholly responsible.
