Toowoomba Council and residents have protested against Bligh's government over-ruling the will of the people and forcing us to accept a brothel in our family oriented community! We are outraged at this STATE interference into a local communities affairs.

It is better to have a legal place of business that can be monitored on all levels than to have illegal prostitution on yr streets where the workers are not protected by laws & at risk of attacks.
It is a legitimate business these days & far better to have workers who have to go thru health checks & most of the time they run very quietly & discreetly. We have several in my town which is far smaller than Toowoomba but you would not know they were there. As long as they are not near children's services I don't see the problems, they are a business & fulfil a need in the community. Most of the protests are based on morals & personal beliefs without looking at the positive side of it. By providing such a service you reduce the risk of women being assaulted or sex workers on the streets day or night, they also provide a service to those who are disabled & unable to have a normal sexual encounter.
