Attached is a podcast that I hope will be of interest.
It is an interview with two London dancers talking about their experiences as dancers and the current campaign in parts of London to ban strip venues. In Tower Hamlets, an area with around 7 venues, the local authority is drawing up plans to close them all, encouraged by an alliance of religious (mainly Muslim) groups and supposed feminists. At least one other London borough has tried to introduce a similar ban, but so far, failed.
It includes the dancers accounts of their efforts to speak on behalf of their chosen line of employment, in Parliament and a recent public meeting convened to discuss the proposed ban.
London has an approximate 10% unemployment rate & these groups wish to increase it. DUMB.
