Why shut down strip-clubs on VG & not Tortola?
The show aired on local radio station ZBVI 780 AM, yesterday January 8, 2019 saw the issue of strip clubs discussed.
Mr Skelton-Cline noted that many males on Virgin Gorda had told him in a recent trip there, that every time a strip club is opened on the island, “it is shut down by the police,” however the same strip clubs are allowed to operate on Tortola.
The man of the cloth made clear that while he was not an advocate for strip clubs, he wanted to understand the different rules between the sister islands.
Trade License
To that Police Commissioner noted that “you will have to see what the trade license says.”
The British Police Commissioner disclosed that, “once the trade license is intact his officers would not interfere.”
When asked, if strip clubs are legitimate businesses, he told the host, “you will have to ask the Trade Department, as I have never been asked to investigate that as an particular breach of a trade license over my three years here.”
Therefore, if they are closing Virgin Gorda strip clubs down, it could mean that “they are not complying with the terms of their Liquor license/club licenses as Virgin Gorda is no different to Tortola”, the Top Cop stated.
Debate on strip clubs
Many social scientists have provided imperial evidence that strip clubs or sex houses, keep the rate of rape and some domestic violence down.
Critics have claimed that it is an exploitation of women, while others locally say we are a 'Christian society.'
In the Virgin Islands (VI) there are over four thousand extra male workers in the Territory who have arrived within the past 12 months assisting with the recovery efforts.
One person believes strip clubs and sex houses, “might be a necessary evil,” according to a female police officer who did not want her name published.
There are about two active strip clubs on Tortola with an additional three places where sex can be purchased at three bars and night clubs.

Seriously, though, the BVI a "Christian society"? They may be Christians, they may go to church, but outside the church they don't show much Christianity in the derogatory and discriminatory way they treat others.
Hmm. There is nothing necessary about EVIL.
