Admiral Casino on Westow Hill
- 6:25 pm
Twenty-four hour gambling centres target the most vulnerable in our communities, fuel antisocial behaviour and damage the character and identity of a local area. They also harm local businesses and contribute to the decline of our high streets. That is why I am proud to present this petition on behalf of my constituents in Beckenham and Penge, including Crystal Palace and Anerley, and the local Labour councillors Ruth McGregor and Ryan Thomson, who stand firmly against the application to open a 24-hour gambling casino on Westow Hill in Crystal Palace. The petitioners request that the House of Commons urges the Government to encourage the Conservative-run council to ensure that Admiral Casino on Westow Hill in Crystal Palace is not granted a 24-hour licence.
