Camden New Journal - LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Published: 4 December 2008
 
SEGA battled with Agincourt road

• IN his article about the South End Green Association (SEGA) and its outgoing chair Pam Gilby (‘Pam was just too friendly’, November 27) Dan Carrier wrote: “They battled with Transport for London over where a bus stop should go…”
This is very misleading. SEGA was not struggling against the giant bureaucracy of TfL, but against the residents of Agincourt, Cressy and Fleet roads. SEGA attempted to dump the 168 bus stand on us, involving a polluting round trip by empty buses, but was defeated by the residents, who won the support of the democratically-elected council. For that reason I was disturbed to read that Councillor Lulu Mitchell, who represents us on Camden Council, attended the SEGA AGM and praised Ms Gilby’s efforts. Cllr Mitchell does not represent South End Green, and SEGA most emphatically does not speak for any of her constituents.
In fact in the case of the bus stand dispute SEGA was part of our problems.
