![]() Newman, Jo Negrini, the council chief exec and the council’s lawyers spent nine months trying to block the publication of that letter, only releasing it to Inside Croydon after they were ordered to do so by the Information Commissioner. ![]() The then CEO of URW said as much in a letter to Tony Newman, Croydon’s council leader, nearly four years ago. It was Tory-inspired Brexit that did for Croydon’s Westfield centre. Truth is, URW’s “re-evaluation” of the Croydon project has been going on since at least March 2019. The list includes a number of assets that are listed as “in development”.Ĭroydon does not appear on URW’s asset portfolio page at all.
