article

There are four such venues already in Leicester, and the council has set a limit of five - which, in the current environment, seems quite generous.

SEV Licence approved:

Councillors approve new lap-dancing club just yards from City Hall headquarters (Leicester Mercury, 15/10/15)

Women Equality Party the only objectors and they want to stop women working so doing their bit for women.

And they're trying to play the 'inappropriate location' card - surprise, surprise!

[TonyN]

I'm guessing if it is within 10,000 miles of them it is inappropriate. As the are the only objectors it really comes over as a desperate ploy... more desperate than normal.

Little sympathy for their views in the Comments appended to the article.

Helen Everett has just added this comment: "I am exercising my democratic right as a citizen of Leicester to object to our elected councillors granting a licence to a Sexual Entertainment Venue without having due regard to the local authority's Public Sector Equality Duty under the Equality Act 2010."

Yesterday "Spud 2018" noted: "You forget that there's a major strand of feminism - not all of it by any means, but a major strand exemplified by the likes of Julie Bindel et. al - which holds that women should be strong, independent and free to direct the course of their own lives ... provided that they do only those things that the feminist intelligentsia agree with. Do something that they don't like and woe betide you."

Precisely: some people seem to be of the view that their 'democratic rights' override anyone else's, not to mention workers' rights. This is about ideology, not local democracy, and also smacks of narcissism.

Comment from a dancer known to some of us: "Good old Spud. We need more people like him."

The Facebook page is defunct. The club's Twitter account was last updated in June 2019, and the Instagram account is only updated very sporadically.

Personally, I'd recommend calling first, to make sure that they're still open!
