Islamist City Councilwoman says they're "unfair to residents"

And so it begins...

Libertarians mostly on the leftside of the movement have been skeptical of right-libertarian claims that Muslims will ban a whole array of sexual freedoms once they gain power.

Now we have a Muslim woman recently elected to a local council in the infamous Muslim-dominated London zone of Tower Hamlets, and one of her first acts, is to seek the banning of strip clubs. (Tower Hamlets is where "Sharia Law Zone" posters were recently posted on telephone polls about town.)

11 lap-dance clubs could be closed down

From the BBC "Could the East End become a strip-club free zone?" Nov.3:

Tower Hamlets wants to be the first council in London to ban lap-dancing clubs and it has just finishing asking its residents if they feel the same.

The east London Labour-led borough is one of the capital's most deprived as well as being the playground of the City and that clash, for many in the council, is uncomfortable.

Officially there are 11 lap-dancing clubs in the borough.

Independent councillor Rania Khan, who has been leading the campaign to shut the clubs, said: "You see a lot of the city workers coming into the borough... It's really unfair on residents, these venues are in the heart of the community."

Let's see if they are any libertarians out there besides this website bold enough to report on this news?
