The back-to-work week is bringing developments by the hour. We chose as our lawyers TLT LLP who are public procurement specialists -- we can pay them thanks to your incredible GoFundMe contributions -- and they have leapt at the challenge, for example digging out the wording of the 2023 survey that found café users loved the current provision and were adamant a chain shouldn't be brought it. They will fire off a very powerful letter tomorrow Wednesday 7 January,  an opening salvo that will make very uncomfortable reading for the City of London Corporation. Meanwhile a journalist has confronted the City with the evidence of a conflict of interest damaging the integrity of their café remarketing -- we will publish a link when his story appears. Finally the BBC have been shooting what looks like a compelling film for the BBC 1 Politics London show -- tune in this Sunday 11 January at 10am.
