Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole councils first had the idea to host an unlimited number of strip cubs back in November 2021.
A judge has overruled a town’s proposed policy of having a potentially unlimited number of lapdancing and strip clubs.But concerns were soon raised that it would have a negative impact on women’s safety.
The council had received 206 responses to the first consultation on the proposals and 70% disagreed with the policy of no cap on the number of venues. A second consultation received 176 responses, and on this occasion 76% of people disagreed with the policy. There was found to be ‘little evidence of links to trafficking or prostitution’, but councillors acknowledged there were suggestions that venues ‘normalise the objectification of women and can have an impact on women’s safety in the locality’.
