“Divas is owed by a LOCAL company that employes over 200 people and has spent millions of pounds over the last 30 years in the local community . All profits over the years have been reinvested in the businesses and as a result of that many many local companies have benefited. Some people for some crazy reason seem to think its a crime to make money. We over the 30 years have always had a good relationship with the police , fire and council . We have always had a policy of working with them . The council and the government have received a fortune over the years in rates and taxes from us, so we feel we are not as bad as some people are trying to make us out to be . As far as Divas is concerned we had no problems in the first two years. We had many visits from the police and licensing with no problems . The a review was brought because of one ladies personal view on lap dancing . We had had no problems prior to that. No drunkenness no fights no drug problems. And whats more we were not breaking the law. We will make a statement in the local papers in the next couple of weeks about all that has happened .”

“This is all such a non issue, no one is forced to either visit or work their and people hae the right to choose how they live their life, its called Freedon of Choice. Divas is getting a hard time on the back of a sustained campaign from a vocal minority. The recently formed Newquay Residents association needs to decide if it is against alcohol fuelled anti social behaviour by young visitors. Or lap dancing. Because the type of people visiting Diva's are not the ones rampaging through the streets at night. By campaigning against both they just seem to be anti fun prudes who are determined to kill off what left of our once FUN town. Remember when we used to be cited as the fouth best place in the World to celebrate New Years eve? those were the days. The bitter irony is that the publicity generated by this special interest campaign group has actually attracted more of the people we dont want (irresponsible youths who are too young to get in any club and certainly couldnt afford Divas, so cause havoc in the streets), and discouraged the people we do want (more affluent responisble people looking for a vibrant party atmosphere in quality clubs). Newquay always has been a Party town and there is nothing wrong with that. 10 to 15 years ago the pubs and clubs were much busier than they are now so why did people move to Newquay if they couldnt handle that?”

“What's wrong with being a crazed women's libber anyway??

It was "crazed women's libbers" who campaigned to get women the vote, to outlaw rape within marriage, to get equal pay, to get better maternity rights for women, to stop the sexual commodifcation of women's bodies.

If that makes me a "crazed women's libber" then I'm proud to be one.

Derogatory terms like that are only used by men who are threatened by women.”

“Well said Fred! and James, Elizabeth and Newquay Maid!
Good sense has prevailed in Newquay at last!
Divas have only themselves to blame. They've been caught on a hook made of their own arrogance. And yet they still wriggle!”
