Insist that London's Olympia must remain an exhibition centre.
The historic Earls Court exhibition centre has already been demolished and lost to housing; now the owners want to do the same for Olympia. This would leave West London with no main exhibition venue.
From the Evening Standard, 7th April 2017:
Landlord Capital & Counties on Friday said it is in “advanced discussions” to sell the historic Olympia exhibition centre to German investors, for a price believed to be close to £300 million.
The FTSE 250 property firm, which owns swathes of Covent Garden and Earl’s Court, said it was close to selling its exhibition business, which includes Olympia London and “certain related property assets”.
