@maxkc6 @lewis_goodall @RHHarrowRoad @db68DS @AdamHug No, they are not. There are not "very few" places with out door seating... and its not hard. A friend on Dean Street has 5 great places within about 100 yards. Where do you live? What a first world problem you face, cant seem to get a table oh dear...

In any other major city in Europe the streets of Soho would obviously be pedestrianised and businesses/visitors on a glorious day like today could enjoy al fresco dining. But thanks to Westminster Council and the way we give outsized power to absurd local complaints, not here!

@CllrPLilley @lewis_goodall @RHHarrowRoad @db68DS @AdamHug In response to your first point, outdoor seating is very different to outdoor dining. I still have no idea why you see this as a negative thing. If you love Soho, why wouldn't you want to improve its social and economic opportunities?

@deanstreet97 @lewis_goodall Stepney Green. Huge improvement over the last 13 years. Deliberate policies focused on improving licensing, temporary events, etc.

@deanstreet97 @lewis_goodall So reductive. So negative. Think about how much brighter Soho could be with this. I take your point about public toilets but it's not like it's not happening already in Soho sq. Could easily be solved by extra services provided by increased revenue.

@maxkc6 @lewis_goodall Ah! So we only have people treating our hometown like a giant toilet 42% of the time! I’m so happy. Cheers Max!

@DinahLeeKung @lewis_goodall Surely sensible solutions can be found to ensure disabled access. No doubt paid for by the huge increase in revenue businesses would see

@deanstreet97 @lewis_goodall Danny - you know it's not every night of the week. It's a Thursday - Saturday during spring and summer. Everything indoors by 10.30. I have no idea how someone who actively chooses to live in soho could have a problem with that.

@lewis_goodall Oh for goodness sake. People live here. We don’t want a musicless Glasto in our street every night of the week. Nothing absurd about that. Get over it.

@razza_my @lewis_goodall This isn't a reason to not pedestrianize four streets for afternoons. Everything was cleared away by 10.30 during Covid.

Razza , named after the footballer
@lewis_goodall People not understanding that some residents of Soho are elderly, live in social housing and have done for years . I know this because as a district nurse I visited them at home . Not commenting on pedestrianisation or otherwise, just that some people think only rich live there

@amusedfromhong1 @lewis_goodall He doesn't even know where to find outside dining in London? which isn't on that street but in pub gardens, parks and by the river and nicer streets, that's a terrible place considering all the other nicer options a walk away, he isn't a Londoner as this tweet shows.

@CllrPLilley @lewis_goodall @RHHarrowRoad @db68DS @AdamHug This is so disingenuous. We all know the very few places with outdoor seating are impossible to get a table at on a nice day, or are in private member clubs. The lack of vision from Westminster Council to see this as an opportunity is astonishing.

@lewis_goodall U need to get out more often. We have so many places to dine outdoors in Soho where have you been? Would you like to meet for lunch ? Join us at our V-E Day Street party on Meard St after a coffee outside bar Italia or fine French dining on Dean St @RHHarrowRoad @db68DS @AdamHug

@MJtweetings @lewis_goodall Such a weak argument. It's four streets. Deliveries can easily be arranged for other times, taxis can be hailed from the street next door, and disabled ramps installed. This attitude is why London continues to decline.

@lewis_goodall That wouldn’t be much help to all those businesses in the area needing to take delivery of stock or requiring maintenance work access. Also for anyone needing disabled access.

@PDimoldenberg Quiet nights? Seriously?? The whole range of policy choices from rent relief on new businesses to pedestrianisation and this is all you can offer? Utterly pathetic.
