Harriet Harman speaks: "If people don't want to have a sleazy lap-dancing club in their neighbourhood, they shouldn't be forced to have one."

I don't want a nasty tub thumping church at the bottom of my street. What about me Mrs Prude?

Many of my neighbours don't want even one "sleazy" betting shop. Some of them don't want any "smelly" fast food joints.

Go back to classing them as sex encounter venues (because that's what they are). Honestly, sometimes she's astute and sometimes she's a complete idiot just chasing votes.

'sleazy' and 'tub thumping': Yes, the DEVIL's always in the detail.
btw John, did I read somewhere that the astute idiot Mrs Prude is nominated for 'rear of the year' - mainly by Labour backbenchers impressed by her handling of the dispatch box in Gordon's absence. Should be good for a few votes.
