SIR – What is wrong with this picture? Are we not seeing cause and effect at work?
Having observed the Eros zentrums in Germany and the red light districts of Amsterdam, I have to say they are sad and dreary places that insult the physical integrity and human rights of the women and their customers, but is this not better than what we have here?
Until someone in power or authority has the sense to join up the dots, meanwhile, we have the terrible fact that the present situation puts women at risk, both from the public and from their pimps, who encourage their drug use as a means of keeping them under control. Come to think of it, our drugs laws are also a contributory factor here.
The Street Angels have been doing a good job ministering to the binge-drinkers of the West End. Can’t we put together a similar exercise in Rebecca Street and environs?
