i'm just disgusted that they want to rip apart beautiful Liverpool Street Station to build yet more office space when there are so many empty office blocks in London! #SaveLiverpoolStreetStation

We are so grateful to everyone who has supported the campaign to #SaveLiverpoolStreetStation.

We wait for the City of London to update their planning portal with the number of people who have objected! Thanks to everyone who has generously donated to www.justgiving.com/campaign/sav...

Station concourse filled with people. Natural daylight pours in through the glazed roof

‼️Today is the last chance to object to plans for a 19-storey tower over Liverpool St Stn, destroying much of the buiding, casting its light-filled concourse into shadow & harming the historic streetscape.

All in an area of the City designated inappropriate for towers 😕
