Hello and welcome to the website/blog for the Stop The Strip Pub campaign. This is the movement to prevent Satchmo's on Stoke Newington Road (North London) being granted a license to put on strip shows.
On Tuesday 6th May Hackney Council rejected Satchmo's application for a Sex Encounters Establishment license.
On 8th March a group of nearly 100 local residents met outside Satchmo's to protest Satchmo's application.
On 11th April Hackney Council announced that they had received 525 written letters of objection- a new record for the borough.
