Rejected petition Put a Xmas tree up in Cecil square Margate. It is part of the towns history.

Margate as we all know is not what it used to be. However one thing local people have always loved is the tradition of a Xmas tree in Cecil square. Families, kids, elderly all love to see it and it brightens up an otherwise deprived area.
