THE LOUNGE BAR IS OUR NIGHTMARE ON SHIP STREET: NO MORE 5AM

Petitions express opinions. Disagreeing with a petition, or thinking it is pointless, is not grounds for a report, and such reports are closed automatically. Report a petition only if it breaks the law or our Community Guidelines, for example hate speech, defamation of a person or organisation, publishing private information, or fraud. We do not check whether the claims in a petition are true; the author is responsible for them.

This report goes to the people who run this website, not to the petition author or to any authority. If you have a question or feedback for the author, send them a message.

Petitions express opinions. Disagreeing with a petition, or thinking it is pointless, is not grounds for a report, and we do not remove petitions because people oppose them.

If you send this, your disagreement is recorded and the report is closed automatically with no action; the decision is sent to your email address. If the content breaks the law or our Community Guidelines, choose that option above instead.

You can also start your own petition or contact the author.

Is the false claim about you, your organisation, or another identifiable person or organisation?

Which passage is false? You can click several sentences in the petition text, and tell us for each what is true. This is optional.

THE LOUNGE BAR IS OUR NIGHTMARE ON SHIP STREET: NO MORE 5AM

We, the residents of Ship Street, Ship Street Gardens and Middle Street in Brighton hereby petition Brighton and Hove City Council to urgently review the licence of The Lounge Bar, 14 Ship Street, Brighton BN1 1AD.

The bar is currently allowed to open until 5am at weekends resulting in large, noisy and intimidating crowds gathering every weekend outside the venue on Ship Street from midnight until the bar closes at 5am. The bar also hosts regular club nights with live DJs playing loud dance music which is often audible around the neighbourhood in the early hours of the morning. The Lounge Bar's late opening time together with its policy of not charging an entry fee at any time is causing a direct impact on the quality of our lives as the 'word spreds' about cheap drink deals and free entry all night. The bar's popularity appears to increase week on week mainly between the hours of 1am and 5am on Saturday and Sunday mornings and the noise and disturbance we are suffering as a result has become unacceptable.

We therefore urge the Licensing Panel to modify the existing license so that the bar must close by 1am at weekends with no member of the public admitted after midnight. We feel that were these conditions to be imposed, the levels of noise & anti-social behaviour would drastically reduce in a very short time and the revised opening times would still allow the bar a very reasonable number of hours in which to trade each day.

A false claim about an identifiable person or organisation is defamation, and we do act on that.

Who is the content about?
Is the person the content is about a politician, a decision-maker or another public figure?
What does the content criticise?

Public criticism of how a politician or decision-maker acts in a public role is allowed, also when the events are old. That a matter is old is not in itself a ground for removal. We can still act on a false claim about the person or on otherwise unlawful content.

If the matter is old or no longer current, it is best to contact the petition author directly. The author can remove the petition for any reason; we cannot.
