## Resource

KFC in New Malden is pushing to stay open later—midnight Sunday to Thursday, 1 AM Friday and Saturday—with delivery-only after midnight. Residents are furious, citing noise, litter, and unwanted crowds, especially since the area isn’t built for late-night activity. The restaurant insists the hours are reasonable and apologizes for past issues, but residents fear the expansion will only worsen the chaos. The council is set to decide soon—this is a classic clash between business growth and neighborhood peace. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
