Some London planning news on (I think, but correct me if you know better) the three biggest schemes at the moment.
The Mayor of London has issued a Stage 2 decision, refusing planning permission for the proposed Monosodium Glutamate Sphere in Stratford:
The decision letter and the detailed report to committee (pre-decision) are attached.
It's not over here, as it goes to the Secretary of State now (Gove at the moment).
Wimbledon is another interesting one. Merton's given planning permission, Wandsworth officers have recommended refusal. The meeting is tomorrow night.

A really bad application.
And finally, we have again the absolutely stupid nonsense proposed for Liverpool Street Station.
