Leeds Holbeck red light district

[Essex3]

Can someone shed some light. Let's say in unfortunate event I get caught by cops picking up a girl or with a girl...

What happens? And what's the best thing to do in that situation

[1969rja]

as the red light zone is suspended at the minute so they might do you or more likely just give you a warning depends on the officer
If it was outside the area they will do you
Why have you been caught

[Ghost89]

I can’t understand why anyone would want to take this kind of risk going to an area like this. It’s just inviting trouble of all kinds.

[Maltese]

I was stopped the other night by the police just for driving through the zone. They wanted to know what I was up to. Of course they let me go, but still I didn't like it.

I've noticed that some girls now work slightly outside the zone.

You must be extra careful until the lockdown is fully lifted.

[1969rja]

It's safe enough if you why do your homework and know where to take them off area and don't go where they won't
When doing a incall on a newby you don't know who hiding behind the door

[Ghost89]

I agree that there’s a risk in all of this hobby. However research on here with incalls is a huge factor in risk management. The RLA at holbeck is constantly changing. Police, unverified girls, unknown pimps and residents in the area photographing vehicles and publishing them. I’d sooner not take the risk for a £20 bj.

For some of us the risk adds to the excitement I guess.

Yeah it must. Each to their own. I can think of better things to be excited about other than if I’m gonna make back home with all my teeth, my belongings, without an sti and without the rozzers pulling me over and asking what I’m doing 40 miles away from where I live but hey that’s just me!

I think it was inevitable tbh. From what I’ve read and seen on tv the area was always rough anyway and having a managed RL zone was always going to attract further issues. Issues that can’t be ignored by police and if they can be reduced by closing the area down and policing it then that’s what they’ll do.

[lateluxury]

Gutted but not a massive surprise.. they have been wanting rid of it for a while

[yourmatedavey]

The area is undergoing significant redevelopment, harder to sell flats if you're dodging jokers on a viewing

Yes, the decision is probably as much based on commercial considerations surrounding the Leeds South Bank redevelopment plans as anything else. It's always amazed me how decrepit and down at heel Holbeck has remained while the centre is thriving, and signs of growth everywhere else along the south bank, into Hunslet and along towards Stourton way. The RLD probably didn't help.  I personally won't be shedding any tears about its demise, but I do sympathise with members who used it a lot. 

One big question remains; ie, where will the girls go to now?  Some of them will have no intention of giving up. Spread out all over Holbeck and Beeston most likely?

[adamza]

Will punters carry on though?
I can't say I was a regular in the RLD, but I did visit on occasion for a quick BJ (from Anysha when possible). However I certainly won't be going anymore - I'd imagine a significant proportion of punters will be in the same boat and unwilling to visit Holbeck with the managed service closed.

Shame really, but as others have said it was probably inevitable 

[1969rja]

No because of all the cameras that got put up on the grounds of safety for the girls will now be used to catch you kerb carolling so I will stay away
Most girls will still be around but if we could spot a pimp or drug dealer why couldn't the plod
I for one thinks they didn't won't the area to work as it's easier to get a girl or two for soliciting to make their figures look good

[Dimond dave]

  A very fair point.

The girls will just move elsewhere and the punters will follow them. The majority of major cities still have street workers and unless human nature changes they will continue to do so.

Managed areas work in other countries primarily because there is an understanding that street prostitution will never go away so let's offer the girls some protection. The UK doesn't have this attitude, just look at the way that this forum is judged on Mums Net et al. and when a girl makes a fortune on OnlyFans the horror that is shown is unbelievable.

Many people think of working girls as an underclass and punters as scum, the UK is more puritanical than we might believe.

Only a small amount of people stand up for the rights of sex workers, hardly any politicians do, and those that do stand up for them are chastised. I can't see this changing anytime soon.

Personally I love the windowed areas found in Holland & Belgium etc. being introduced and a recognition that sex work has a part in our society.

If it helps anyone, I saw a lass working the corner of Shafton Ln by the bookies today. Not that I'm into that sort of stuff just thought I'd let people know. Slim brunette in her 20s, dressed in tight black top and black leggings. She could easily make £60-80 phh doing in calls I reckon. This was around 2pm.

[Dimond dave]

   Was passing Leeds on the way back home sat night 11pm   Diverted  intentions on one drive through.  Just past the bridge  black girl. Skin tight wet look leggings heels teeny top  pulled round  into the next road price sorted under 10 seconds. Went to a spot I know and trust  fit body amazing tits. 
Dropped her of on way back out side the zone 
Didn't see any plod. And spotted around 11 girls. 

[Stretfordender]

For anybody interested I drove through the zone on Sunday afternoon about 1pmand saw 3 lasses stood around. Also went through today around 4pm and there was 1 lass there. Short pink dress on but lots of evidence of self harm on her legs. Looks like some lasses are now operating outside of what the tolerated hours are/were.

[ruffler]

Where is best area to pot them - drove a few time and spotted little

[Dimond dave]

    Passed though last night on the way back from down south.  Just after 11pm. Rather busy  had a decent pick up.

I haven’t been since the zone was closed. Was there much of a police presence when you drove through?

[Dimond dave]

  didn't see a single one
