Gentleman’s clubs have actually been belatedly acknowledged as crime scenes. Chris Pincher’s sexual assaults at the Carlton Club brought down the Tory government, but no criminal proceedings.
Former Tory MP, Patrick Spencer also allegedly carried out sexual assaults at the Groucho club…but we’re still waiting for justice to be served and he still sits in Parliament.
Does the Met serve the interests of gay and female victims of crime?
Knut 🏳️🌈 🇳🇴🧸@JugglingWithEggs oh hell no. Here in the US if you get handsy at a titty bar (which is what gentlemen's clubs are called here because str8 men are animals), Big Mike Bouncer is going to come and break your hands. And Big Mike is probably a big ol' gay guy attached to the mafia.
