Leeds bar in row with former bouncers 'sacked without notice'

A row has erupted between former Revolution Call Lane Leeds doormen and their management after they claim they were let go en-masse and then replaced.

Rabwanaz Ali, 36, worked at Revolution Call Lane for two years, said: “The whole team is being replaced by all white people, what’s going on there?” Former head doorman Qudratullah ‘Q’ Azizi, 33, who was working at the venue for more than three years, said that he was told not to come back without any notice. He’s worried about how he’ll provide for his four sons, aged one, four, six and nine, and pay for his rent and energy bills with the sudden loss of income.

“It’s almost as if Phoenix had already pre-planned getting a new door team with at least a week in advance that they were going to get rid of us. Nobody had the decency to tell us.'Operational necessity' Phoenix Security insists the bouncers were all offered alternative roles in the same area and that they had been let go due to "operational necessity".
