Rejected petition Make prostitution legal

More details

It's sad that young girls are made to be criminals for being prostitutes. Prostitutes will be prostitutes whether it's legal or not, so why not make it safer for them. Legalisation would allow prostitutes labour rights. Prostitution isn't a matter that is going away any time soon. Prostitution is considered a victimless crime. Porn is a worse form of prostitution, yet it is legal and it has been made safer by regulations. Also, it could bring tax revenue to the economy.
