H Bar closed down again

FOLLOWING on from Alex Curran's comments earlier this week that Liverpool nightlife was getting a bit rough (see The Vote), H Bar has been closed down again.

The nightclub, owned by former Atomic Kitten singer Natasha Hamilton, had its licence suspended for the second time in twn months after two door staff received knife wounds during an incident outside the venue in the early hours of Monday morning.

A third man was found with stab wounds and police said they were “thankful” not to be dealing with a murder.

Liverpool council’s licensing committee's decision, made in a preliminary review, will stand until a final verdict next month.

H Bar had introduced plastic glasses and told the committee how it had reduced its opening hours on Sunday nights.

A spokesman for Natasha Hamilton said: “She is incredibly frustrated something completely out of their control, which happens all the time everywhere else, is forcing them to close.

“Natasha is really upset but will work with the police as hard as ever.
