Super-cut

Supercuts, the Upper Brockley Road off-licence, had its alcohol licence revoked by Lewisham Council this evening.

The shop has been at the epicentre of illegal and anti-social behaviour which has plagued that location for years, an problem to which the owner was avowedly indifferent. Following a review, which asked local people to submit their feedback, Councillor Darren Johnson reports on Twitter:

Supercuts Brockley - licensing cttee agreed tonight to revoke their license in the light of evidence submitted.

The decision comes four years after Mayor Bullock vowed to clean up the area using the full range of the Council's powers.
