Lap Dancing – More of the Same?

Written by chameleonfridays on November 4th, 2008

Lap dancing clubs are back in the news again, after being front page news on the BBC.

The reason is that local residents in West Kensington, London have started to  complain about a lap dancing company, Passion Nights, who are due to set up in their area. Passion Nights have applied to put lap dancing club in an old pub “The Fox”, in Avonmore area of West Kensington.

But unlike most residents these individuals are far more organized, setting up online petitions and even complaining to Parliament

Passion nights defended its right to open a club in the area with the unusual claim that it “will create new jobs”.

Lap dancing clubs are well known for its sexual encounters, are springing up everywhere, but increasingly local residents unwilling to live near these v venues.

With West Kensington better associated with  boutique shops and hotels, rather than strippers and prostitution, will this location be the one which puts a stop to it all? If the West Kensington residents can block the application, then other residents will learn how they did it, and the government may come under pressure to change the law.

Lapdancing clubs, more of the same? Well, for now.
