Ealing Council Faces Judicial Review Over Planned QPR Training Academy

LONDON, January 29, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

Today papers will be lodged at the High Court of Justice to judicially review Ealing Council's decision to sign over 61 acres of London's Green Belt, rent free for 200 years, to QPR Football Club for their new Training and Academy HQ.

Campaigners allege that the decision is unlawful on several grounds including the enclosure of Metropolitan Open Land (MOL) and concerns about the impartiality of councillors handling both the decision to grant the rent-free lease and the planning permission.

Full release available on 30 January.

Members of the Save Warren Farm Campaign, accompanied by their legal team, will be available for photographs and interviews on the steps of the Royal Courts of Justice:
