''Britain’s first official red light district has been branded a failure by one of its key architects amid speculation that the controversial scheme maybe on the brink of collapse.

The local politician who helped mastermind the zone in Leeds admitted the women working the streets were still at risk of violence and neighbouring residents had seen a surge in sex and drug-taking in their streets, parks and woods, sometimes in full view of children. Kerb-crawling men are meanwhile evading prosecution from the police’s “hands-off” approach.''

Well they tried it, it didn't work.
Amsterdam tried it and it didn't work. It isn't working in Germany with the super brothels. Everywhere they try it it doesn't work.

''The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.''

Thanks for the link.
I watched the BBC3 series on Holbeck.
Grim from the outset.
