"Following on from the court ruling on Friern Barnet Library, Coppetts Labour councillor, Pauline Coakley Webb said:

"Today was a good day for Friern Barnet and for justice, but I believe that dialogue and negotiation between the occupiers, residents and Barnet council must continue.

What is the logic of running up expensive legal bills when the council has such a committed group of people who want to talk about feasible ways of keeping the library open and preserving the one and only public community space in the area? I call on Cllr Thomas to allow the discussions to continue."
