You may find my post caustic, but you should also at least acknowledge the fact that some people here are stating that Vaughan should be removed from office solely on the basis of the issue of clubs.
That being said, why should Vaughan make any promise to you to not to close any clubs? First off, he just can't just close a club with the snap of his fingers. Things don't work like that. Many of the clubs that have closed have done so because the owners and managers have failed to live up to their licensing and operating responsibilities. Second of all, Vaughan has a responsibility to the people who live in his ward. If you come from outside the area and demand that he keep clubs open to suit your needs, you shouldn't be too surprised about receiving a negative answer.
The area will probably always have nightclubs - just not as many as now. The ones that persist will probably be smaller, well-run and capable of putting in the effort to make sure that they are not a nuisance to their residential neighbours or other nearby businesses.
