London against Camden Danger Lab {Mandy} | 16.05.2008 14:16 | Animal Liberation | Bio-technology | Other Press | London | World
As you may be aware there is an attempt to build a deadly disease lab in London. There were 27 other bidders for the land at Brill Place next to St Pancras International in the heart of London's business district. The site is also on a Camden council house estate. 12 complied with the planning briefthat the site should be used for 50% housing but were turned down. There is something very stinky about this whole thing...
The attempt to build the "World's largest ever, high level, virus containment facility and animal testing lab" by a the UCL / Wellcome Trust / Cancer Research / MRC / consortium has been brilliantly reported in the nation's press after a tip off from MP from Hendon Andrew Dismore. Paul Keilthy has been covering the story. Natasha Gilbert did a great article in the Guardian and the next day the Evening Standard, thelondonpaper and London Lite did some great articles. The consortium plans include a move by the level 4 NIMR lab facility from Mill Hill to the inner London site.
The 27 other bidders were :
Development securities plac and Grainger plc {JV}
Oracle Group
Minerva
Tudorvale Properties
City Lofts Group
Thornsett Group plac and CIT Group plc {JV}
Terrace Hill Group plc
MRC consortium

We want to know why these bidders were turned down in favour of the MRC consortium when 12 complied with the council's planning brief and some were offering higher financial bids.
Why not write to Gordon Brown and Camden Council leaders and find out ?

The newspapers did not retract their statements.
And the lab will be at least level three which does mean it will be dealing with deadly viruses such as anthrax and rabies. The plans include a move by the NIMR in Mill Hill....if you want more info on this this write to MP for Hendon Andrew Dismore.
Recently it was found that no labs in Pirbright, Surrey will be prosecuted over the Foot and Mouth leak as it was "impossible" to tell where the leak into a drain came from. Imagine such a leak in central London....The NIMR conduct tests on Bird flu which is transmissable to humans in a transmutable form.
And the lab will not benefit any local people in any way.
