The battle to keep Edinburgh’s four strip clubs open was launched in March 2022 following an attempt by councillors to ban them.
Taxpayers in Edinburgh have forked out more than £100,000 to cover the legal fees racked up by the City Council in a failed bid to ban strip clubs.
The figures, which were unveiled using freedom of information powers, also showed that six members of council staff had been involved in the judicial review. Strippers told councillors at the meeting about their fears if it had been passed, and how they felt it would push women into prostitution, but was approved in a five to four vote.
But Lord Richardson said the council would just look at the number of sexual entertainment venues in the area and then at the number it deemed appropriate, which was set at zero. He went on to rule: “I do consider that there is a realistic possibility that, properly advised, a different decision may have been taken.
