Save Our Streets stages flash-mob protest outside WHSmith headquarters

BGUK_3632531 - Campaign group Save Our Streets staged a peaceful flash-mob demonstration outside WHSmith’s headquarters at Aldgate Tower in London, calling for greater support for Britain’s high streets following the 2025 sale and rebranding of the retailer’s high street business as TG Jones. Protesters carried handmade placards reading “Keep Our WHSmith on the High Street,” “Bring Back WHSmith,” “Save Our Stores,” and “Where’s the Loyalty to Your Customers and Staff?” while marching outside the headquarters. Campaigners said the action was intended to highlight concerns about the future of the British high street and to question whether iconic retail brands should disappear from town centres while continuing to trade in airports, railway stations and hospitals.
