Another raid in Liverpool

[Toffeelover]

Getting rid of people taking drugs and minding their own business won't clean up the city. Funnily enough it's the legal substance (alcohol) which does by far the most damage.

In many ways you are correct Brennan no question of that.

Beg pardon Mikey you did specify clubs but how ill raiding these dubious ones affect the leisure industry of Liverpool. Surely you would like the City to be cleaned up by getting shut of the likes of these?

If you really cleaned up in the sense you're proposing, town would be a lot, lot quieter, a lot less business and the knock on effect would take its toll.

Ask a cabbie what it's like when the students go home.

The city is far too dependent on the leisure industry, anything that has an impact on the fragile relationship between students, clubs, bars and pubs will have a massive consequence.

Would genuinely like to hear from police and council as to intent and actual achievement during these raids, including arrests, contraband or chemicals impounded and costs per prosecution from raid to court

Fair does but not saying everything should be shut, but surely getting rid of a few dubious ones is not going to kill the Liverpool, leisure scene is It?

 

[magicjuan]

don't think it's ever been illegal in UK

Sure it never has, it's the purchasing or paying for the service or procuring of the service that is illegal




so I've heard

That can attract an awful lot of undesirables though.

I believe it's the actual act of soliciting that's illegal amigo,

it's certainly not the paying for it, that's prostitution...which is legal

 

[N.S.N.O.]

.

Its ridiculous how often this is happening......can Gerrard not just listen to Phil Collins music at home like the rest of us....

 

[Zatara]

If this thread is morphing into a prostitution thread, I'm in.

Anyway, whats the scene in the city thesedays, are the ladies looking orange and have dodgy eyebrows or is that a myth?

Think of been in this establishment on a weeknight and it's fairly small if I recall and was full of posh southern engkish students.Was only one cubicle to be taking beak in as well which I thought was rather inconsiderate like
