We’ve said it. Others have said it. Dalston isn’t like the rest of London. While other neighbourhoods organise to drive out prostitutes or close the local crack house, Dalstonians Homertonians organise to close a new posh hotel.
Edited to show that it’s actually Homertonians who live in fear of hotels, not the live-and-let-live Dalstonians. Thanks Dean Nicholas.
