Manchester City Council has received a application to open a "Sex Establishment" in the basement of 103 Portland Street (What was Torrore Restaurant).
This petition is intended to give the local council an indication how people feel about this application. Portland Street is one of Manchester's main thouroughfare, is part of a route to many of the cities main attractions (Theatres, Restaurants, hotels, Town Hall, Library, Bridewater hall etc), is this really the kind of establishment that should feature so prominently on one of the main streets - the street which is central to so many activities such as the Manchester 10k run, Sky ride, gay pride parade etc?
The proposed opening hours of this "establishment" will be 19:00-04:00 7 days a week, and it is based in a majority residential building, surley there are more suitable locations for such establishments? Please share this Petition..
We are approaching 500 signatures and need to maintain this momentum to catch the council's attention. Post this link on Facebook right now and text three friends to ask them to sign. This application cannot go forward without more of us speaking up today.

The momentum we have built confirms that our neighbors do not want this establishment on Portland Street. Post this link to your Facebook feed right now so the council understands the scale of this opposition. Send an email to your local representative and demand they oppose this license application.

Not on portland street. Its a main road for the city not a place for back alley clubs. Put it somewhere else.

This is completely inappropriate for such a busy area. Families and tourists walk down Portland Street every single day. Keep this away from the city center.

What are the council thinking?? Right in the middle of everything where the pride parade happens? No way.

My kids walk past there all the time to get to the library. Totally wrong place for this business.

I live right near here and I do not want this on my doorstep. The noise and the crowds at 4am will be a nightmare.
