Amusing, This post is tongue in cheek, no law suits necessary.

The mobile operators make money from every phone call made. It is against their interests to close the numbers down. Especially as it must be a high revenue earner for them. Imagine the drop in the graph when all the prostitutes numbers are disconnected. A 50% drop in calls made.

I can see this meeting with some resistance, or the mobile operators will put up prices to the general user to offset their losses.

Surprising Westminster want them closed though. I would have thought a vast majority of the girls clients come from that area (Joke, tease).

All that will happen is an increase in PC sales, as the girls increase their advertising over the internet. Whatever people do to shut them down, another way will be found.

And finally, why not leave them alone. Dont Westminster have better things to do than go around collecting cards from phone boxes?
