If councils are actively sending out PIs to investigate whether unlicensed shops are offering extras, why are there so many new massage shops opening up rather than closing down? Sounds a bit sus, it's as if some councillors are getting their pockets lined up to keep businesses running and expanding like mushrooms. Mind you that many LGA councillors officially get paid the same salaries as supermarket workers. The previous Ryde councillor had to resign because he was caught in a scandal, and I suppose it's because he can't live on a $50k salary trying to look flashy all the time.

On the other hand these days there's many open minded MLs who bring boxes of condoms with them without trying to conceal it. Only once a Filipino ML wrapped my used condom in a tissue and asked me to take it with me on my way out. I suppose she's quite new to the business and didn't want to risk getting caught. If caught, does the penalty apply to shop only or does it apply to the girl as well?
