The owner of one of London’s most famous LGBTQ venues has said Soho has “lost its vibrancy” and put one of his bars on the market.

G-A-Y Bar owner Jeremy Joseph announced on Friday he was selling the venue weeks after he had to fight to reopen Heaven nightclub, where a security guard allegedly raped a drunk 18-year-old who had been in the queue for the club for over two hours.
