Lap-dancing club ‘could breed prostitution and sex trafficking’

THE opening of a new lap-dancing club in Dublin could act as a breeding ground for prostitution and sex trafficking, it was claimed yesterday.

The Ruhama women’s project said it was opposed to the Peter Stringfellow’s club, which is due to open in Parnell Street in the city later this month.

Spokeswoman Gerardine Rowley said: “Peter Stringfellow, in all his PR to date, is selling it as a lap-dancing club and it is a fact that lap-dancing clubs are part and parcel of the sex industry.
