This Camden area
has had many stall holders being told to go,
many have said they do not want to go.
The Owners want to build on it.

I have been up there
it is a great Historic place.

Funny enough the Owners told them not long ago
that they will have to go because it is a Fire Risk.(Ref:BBC Local News)
Of course it would not have been open
at the start this Fire.


But now many flats are on fire
and the Camden Land Mark Pub Hawley Arms
has sadly burnt up.

What if the Owners have done this in a covert way?
so they can get rid of those stall holders for good?
Tragic if true.

Conspiracy theory number 1. If they have, no doubt it will all come out in the wash.

As things stand it is all a great tragedy. There will be many people now homeless as a result of the fire.

OK, I`m not a fan of Conspiracy Theories, but maybe I have a suspicious mind. It does make you wonder, doesn`t it? I`m sure it`ll be thoroughly investigated, but the truth may not be found. IF it was started deliberately and the culprit is identified I hope the sentence will be severe.
It`s always sad to hear of old markets closing, not to mention the misery of the folks now out of business, and those made homeless by this tragedy.

Row faster, slaves! Caesar wants to waterski!

many of the market traders had No Insurance.
