[Tango-L] Club Sunderland closure

[Shahrukh Merchant]

I wouldn't assume that it's a permanent closing (even though the article 
says it's not the kind of temporary one that occasionally is done for 
relatively easy correctable "safety" problems or city permissions not 
being in order, etc.). There may be enough of a backlash or grassroots 
type effort to override the ruling or reach some kind of compromise, but 
lets hope it happens sooner rather than later while there is still 
momentum behind it.

Perhaps someone (no, not I ...) will take the initiative and organize an 
international online petition via change.org or causes.com or whatever. 
If it's just a numbers thing it may not be very effective, but if each 
person wrote a line saying why it was important to him, country of 
origin, etc., and several thousand people did so, it would be hard to 
ignore I think.

I don't think it would be very hard to get pretty much everyone who had 
a Tango Facebook page to publicize it and it would go viral pretty 
quickly, at least in the Tango world, I would think.

Someone?
