Whis driving this at Brent Council??? Seems like the applicable is clearly being lead and guided by someone high up?

We are told that most visitors will come by Public Transport. The 'Safety Officer' correctly identified the problem with the narrow access to Northwick Park Station on the Metropolitan Line. The extra conditions do not address this issue - so how could they withdraw their objections?

In any case if the Labour Administration wants to increase the use of Brent's Open Spaces across the whole borough to make money should this not be restricted to events of a sensible size and for Brent based organisations providing services mainly to Brent residents?

One tree Hill is an interesting park in Brent, it is supposed to provide open space for several thousand new properties in Alperton. What happens if they rent that out for concerts. Where will the 1,000s go to then for their amenity space? Many open spaces are already no go areas, yet they are named as amenity spaces for new developments. The Northwick Park playing fields are supposed to be amenity space for the new Parkview Village, yet it is paying fields and will be taken over with events, so no amenity space.
