Labour restaurant ‘curfew’ claims are rubbish

It appears that our local media will just print any old rubbish from Labour Mayoral hopeful, John Biggs. He now claims that the council are planning to introduce a ‘12 O’clock curfew’ on restaurants in Brick Lane. This is simply untrue. I was pleased to reassure Brick Lane restaurant owners on this issue personally when I met with them yesterday. Contrary to what the Labour party claim, it’s business as usual for Brick Lane. The area is London’s curry capital and a vital hub for the local economy. My officers are working closely with the traders to see how we can provide additional support and boost businesses.
