Campaigners against the closure of Lancaster Market recently proposed by the City Council’s cabinet have organised a demonstration at Morecambe Town Hall next week when the plans will be discussed by full Council.
The full council meets at 2.00pm on Wednesday 3rd March at Morecambe Town Hall and campaigners will march from Lancaster Market at 12:15 prompt to Morecambe to vent their anger at the closure plans.
So far, only Green Party councillors have opposed the plan when they came to a vote in Cabinet, but the closure plans but over 4000 people have already signed a petition against the plans, according to the Lancaster Guardian.
Campaigners are calling on local residents to support the campaign any way they can. Pop into the Market and sign the petition against the closure, or join one of the several facebook groups rallying support against the plan. (This one has the highest membership, but there are others)
Let’s see if we can make a massive difference in our own community.
