I just sent the following to greenwich borough council:

Dear sir 

I am a Greenwich resident living in Eltham. As a wheelchair user I now use the Elizabeth Line quite frequently, and as such pass through Woolwich regularly. On my way through General Gordon Square this afternoon, I was extremely disturbed by a group of religious evangelical preachers: they were broadcasting their beliefs across the square so loudly that it was impossible to ignore. As an atheist I find such behaviour extremely offensive. In a city as multicultural and diverse as London, surely citizens have a right to cross a public square without religious dogma being hurled at them, so loudly that they cannot ignore it.

The religious group in question was apparently called Streams Of Joy. Would you please take my deeply held objections into account when you consider applications for such events. I find such spectacles extremely aggressive intrusive and arrogant.

Yours

Mattt Goodsell
