GREAT response shows that lots of people really appreciated the flowers along Holloway Road. It's understandable that the new council now feels it must cut this expense.

But couldn't it at least, instead, make a better floral display at the War Memorial on Islington Green? Such a gloomy lot of greenery there at present!
