Peter Stringfellow discussing lapdancing in the House of Commons
Peter Stringfellow, the man behind Stringfellows ‘gentleman’s clubs’ was joined in the House of Commons by a bizarre mixture of strippers, club owners, anti-lap-dancing-club campaigners and MPs.
Appearing at the Commons Culture Committee he flew in from Spain especially to debate plans to licence lap-dancing joints.
Strip joints are ranked along the same lines as pubs and clubs, however, some boring people lobby groups want them licensed in the same way as sex shops – something Stringfellow isn’t too happy about.
Stringfellow insisted that his nightclubs did not offer ’sexual encounters’ and were no more stimulating than pictures of David Beckham in his underwear. .
The chairman of the Lap Dancing Association, Simon Warr (owner of Spearmint Rhino – lapdancing super-clubs) followed up ‘People go for the alcohol and the entertainment – so, the entertainment is nude. But it is not sexually stimulating,’ he informed the committee..
What do you think, are lapdancing clubs not sexually stimulating?
