🚨 SOHO NIGHTLIFE UNDER THREAT? 🚨

​Local residents' group The Soho Society has just voted to oppose every single new and renewed alcohol licence in Soho. The Mayor of London has jumped in, calling the blanket ban "bad for London" and promising new powers to protect our venues this summer.

​If businesses can't renew their licences, the Soho we love could vanish. Is this the final nail in the coffin for London's late-night culture, or do residents have a point about the noise and infrastructure?

It was more than just bricks and mortar; it was the village's living room.

For generations, the Blands Arms in Micklefield was the place where neighbours became lifelong friends. But since its closure, a deeply felt silence has taken over the community. Local historian Dennis Best recalls the days when miners, farmers, and families would crowd around the old piano every weekend. Now, as the village expands with new housing, the fight is on to save its soul and bring back its only pub.
