Holocaust Memorial Bill

Contribution

As also mentioned before, the Spicer memorial is being moved to create 193 square metres of new paved space, shrinking the playground. This is unnecessary. But much worse than all this, visitors will queue and walk past the northern end, forcing children and their families to mix with memorial visitors. A high-profile tourist site packed with visitors in one of the most politically sensitive areas of London is a bull’s-eye for trouble.
