Plans to build the World's largest ever Bio Lab including the World Flu Centre alongside St Panrcas International behind the British Library will cost the UK £300 million from public funds. Already the govt and the MRC have argued over this. A parliamentary report says of funding the lab : "We are at a loss to understand the rationale behind this behaviour" and "It is hardly redolent of good faith".
There are plans to build a high level [3+] virus containment facility and animal testing lab in Camden behind the British Library, alongside St Pancras International.
This has been criticised by MI5, MPs, councillors, businesses, tourists and residents.
Letters and emails from residents and councillors have been ignore completely.
The seriousness of the issues were made a mockery of when the UKCMRI consortium chose a Peter Pan photo to represent themselves as part of the presentation.
£300 million is a lot of money. The UKCMRI have said "The project will use £300 million of public money so it is not appropriate that this money is used for housing".
We need housing. There are 20,000 people on a housing waiting list in Camden.
