There are plans to build a high level [3] virus containment facility and animal testing lab in Camden, alongside St Pancras International, behind the British Library on a Camden council house estate, Somers Town, one of the most deprived areas of the country in desperate need of community facilities and council homes. Please oppose by contacting Camden Council on the updated info below. Camden Councillors have changed.

The planning chief for Camden is Chris Knight.

We stress that although the register of interests on the Camden council website for each councillor includes the home addresses of councillors, that all letters be sent to the Camden Town Hall and not to councillors houses. Some councillors for example Roger Robinson are against the lab and are helping the campaigns to to stop the lab so please keep all letters polite and sent via the proper address.

Stop The Camden Animal Lab - donations

30.01.2009 15:29

We are now accepting donations for the campaign as the lab plans draw closer.

Donations will be spent on campaigning materials such as leaflets, posters, letters, stamps, envelopes etc. In the event that the lab planning permission is not applied for or granted we will fight the second proposed lab fro Camden on the Hampstead Road close to the Regents Park Estate.

Any left over funds from the campaigns will be donated to youth facilites in the deprived Camden area.

Please send cheques or postal orders made payable to Stop The Camden Animal Lab and address to Stop The Camden Animal Lab [London Against Camden Danger Lab] BM8735 London WC1N3XX
Please do not send cash through the post and mark all cheques / orders AC Payee Only and please also cross all cheques / orders.

For those who don't know about the campaign, there are plans to build a deadly virus containment facility and animal testing lab on a deprived Camden Council house estate that needs homes and community facilities. The lab could be a level 3 facility which means that it could contain viruses & disease such as anthrax and bird flu. Foot and mouth disease was leaked from similar govt facility Pirbright in Surrey. Such a leak close to major transport hubs would be catastrophic. The lab will test on animals such as cats and dogs. The lab plans have been criticised by MI5, MPs, residents and local businsses.

It seems that central govt are over riding the council. Many cllrs against lab.

09.03.2009 15:11

Please see the government's response to the online govt petition
 http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/BLISS-Lab
The government also sent out emails to people who signed this petition.

So, it seems that the govt might over ride / over rule any decision made by Camden Council to oppose planning permission.

AR people should also be aware that Camden Council gave SHAC a permit for a stall in Camden and are not "baddies".

According to this week's Camden New Journal work has begun at the Brill Place site although the project does not yet have planning permission. Northwest Holst are soil engineers who are carrying out "exploratory works" according to the CNJ.
