Success! This distracting and pointless digital adscreen, proposed for Stamford Hill, right opposite Stoke Newington Station, has been rejected permission on the grounds of public safety and detriment to the character of the area!
Thanks everyone who objected!

Ban fast fashion ads, especially those with very questionable labour practices. 🛑
There are serious questions about forced labour in Shein's supply chains - and ongoing legal action against them - TfL should not be making money from companies with such opaque business practices promoting fast fashion.

Last month, European Parliament said that Saudi Arabia hosting the 2034 World Cup “undermines the principles upon which FIFA was founded” - gender equality, human rights and environmental concerns.
Unsurprisingly, FIFA has doubled down. 🧵

Great news from @adblockhackney.bsky.social 🥳 We CAN all ensure our communities are for people & nature rather than corporates & reclaim our public spaces!
We've just heard that another disgusting digital billboard has just been refused permission 🎉🙌following objections from Adblock Hackney supporters. This one was going to illuminate Seven Sisters Road next to Finsbury Park. #Hackney
