A couple of comments have come In on the reverted clause on the former library in Kensal Rise. There appears to be an assumption that Brent Council could simply use the building for any purpose.
This was never the case.
All Souls College have always been clear that if the building ceased to be used as a library, it would automatically revert to them. As I understand it, their view is that the building automatically reverted on 3 February. They wrote to theCouncil shortly after to that effect.
The building is now being considered as a possible school site. Had it been considered prior to the reverter triggering, my understanding is that All Souls would have objected, as they did to the proposed children centre in Cricklewood Library about five years ago.

You seem pretty obsessed with kensal rise Library, oh dear. Kensal Rise Library is no longer your concern, thank goodness.
Better to keep your comments for your own six libraries which you'll be given a chance to ruin.

"[Your] understanding is that All Souls would have objected...": Did Brent Council, when it had the freehold on the Kensal Rise Library building, ask All Souls about extending the covenant on the freehold to include other educational purposes such as for use as a school? If so, when? You presume that they would have objected, but Brent Council never asked. I met you at your council surgery on at least three occasions over this issue. Don't pretend now that you had any other agenda than pushing the freehold back at All Souls.
