David West, who set up the petition for the Blue Note London club to be granted a licence, briefly closed it. but it is now open again as : “Approve The Blue Note London Late License”
David has written an update to explain:
“I contacted Westminster City Council to let them know about the support for the club and was told that the license application had been granted, so I closed the petition.
This was not quite accurate. The application granted by Westminster City Council is not what the club needs to be viable.
The council granted opening until 11.30PM from Monday to Thursday; until 12 on Friday and Saturday; and until 10.30PM on Sundays.
By comparison, Ronnie Scott’s has a license until 3AM.
Thanks to Seb at UK Jazz News and Nick at Change, the petition has been reactivated! Please keep signing and sharing. Thank you!” (end of quote)
