why pass the adverts as being ok then do this? TAXIS which advertise lap-dancing clubs have been banned by Scotland's biggest council. Bosses at Glasgow City Council are refusing to allow staff to travel in cabs displaying the ads. Whenever a taxi is hired by has left councillors virtually powerless to prevent them. Deputy leader Jim Coleman, who is also chairman of Glasgow Violence Against Women Partnership, has sent a letter to each council department announcing the ban. He said: "We do not believe the council should be endorsing this advertising. "We have taken a strong stance against this industry which we believe to be a form of commercial sexual exploitation. "From now on, no council department will use a taxi with this advertising on." Glasgow has four major lap-dancing venues and adverts for Spearmint Rhino and Diamond Dolls appear on several taxis. Spearmint Rhino, the world's biggest lap-dancing chain, opened their first Scots venue in Glasgow in April. Councillors banned them from calling the venue a "gentlemen's club" in taxi adverts, saying "true gentlemen" wouldn't go there. A Glasgow Taxis spokesman said: "This will mean a loss of earning for a few of our members." http://www.sundaymail.co.uk/news/scotti ... -21635365/ |

Hello taxis, yes you can have one, but we only have Dona, Angela or Toots available
If all the taxis take up the adverts, folk will be ordering them by name next, just like Eddy Stobart |
