Lap dancing opposition is massive

The owner of a lap-dancing chain has said he has never experienced opposition as strong as he has in Fife.

hurch leaders, an MP and local people have all said they do not want the "gentlemen's club" which opened two weeks ago in Dunfermline town centre.

Church leaders have condemned the venue, which is in alongside a bus station and close to a new town centre development.

A Christian organisation has started a petition calling for the club to be closed down.

Father David Barr from St Margaret's RC Church said: "People were expressing their concern that such a place could open up in the middle of town.

"My objection would be on a social level as well as on a spiritual one."
