MINISTRY SET UP PETITION

Ministry Of Sound have launched an online petition to rally support for their bid to fight plans by property developers Oakmayne to build a big apartment block next to their South East London superclub.

As previously reported, Ministry bosses are concerned that a major residential complex next to their club will result in future licensing problems for their events, and are pissed off that Oakmayne boss Chris Allen has, at times, been rather dismissive of their positive role in the local community.

Allen argues that he has offered to pay for Ministry to upgrade its sound-proofing in a bid to ensure both the club and apartment block could co-exist, though its not clear how viable those proposals really were.

Anyway, with Southwark Council still considering Oakmayne's proposals, Ministry are encouraging clubbers and dance music fans to put their name to their petition, to prove - in case there was any doubt - what a major force the independent music firm is in both British dance music and the international clubbing community.
