Closed Decriminalise prostitution for the safety of woman

Closed on

Prostitution is currently legal in the uk however it hasn’t been decriminalised. Sex workers are in real danger from sex traffickers and abuse and the law is not on their side.

No woman should be put in danger by the law. Sex workers are put in a position where they often have to choose between being in danger from perpetrators or risking prosecution. This shouldn’t be a decision any women has to make.
