Here is the current news update on the Northern Lights petition at change.org.


"Such an amazing response!

Liam Hardy
Brighton, United Kingdom
1 Mar 2015 — Guys...!

We had no idea this would kick off so fantastically, your support has been amazing, I overheard strangers on the bus talking about the petition and apparently so many of you visited the restaurant to offer support throughout the weekend.

THANK YOU!.

A brief update before you tuck into your Sunday munchies (meatballs, we hope!). We've received support from a host of celebrities, coverage on the Finnish national news, messages of support from the Finnish embassy... It's so fantastic to know how much love there is for our favourite restaurant and Scandinavian culture hub.

The tide is not over us, any sharing and assistance you can give us is still hugely valued, the Council hearing for licence review is on Tuesday morning. We'll be printing off the petition on Monday night (around 9pm) and handing it to the venue's lawyer.

Can we attempt one final push together? Can we can find 10000 people in Brighton who love Asgardian Hash Browns, Fisu & Flaesk?

Save our Lights! Hi-fives all around. and again, thanks."

WOW, that is so great that they heard from the Finnish Embassy and got on the Finnish news. :)
Best of luck. :)

This petition also seems pertinent, in a more general sense:

https://www.change.org/p/brighton-hove-city-council-stand-up-for-brighton-hove-s-live-music-venues

Should be interesting to see what number Northern Lights can indeed reach by 9pm - they've certainly not been doing badly! (7177 signatures as I type this!)
