Fantastic news! #WTUC has defeated Motions 8 and 9, which called for full decriminalisation of prostitution, and which would have fully legalised the sex trade and harmed women.

Brilliant work by women to build the support and achieve this!

So proud that SWU are part of the BFAWU, Rosa’s contribution to Motion 8 was inspirational receiving a standing ovation and many rounds of applause’s throughout it ❤️

Why decriminalising prostitution puts women and migrants at risk Wherever prostitution laws are ‘liberalised,’ the result is a surge in human trafficking and abuse, writes STELLA BAILEY

‘decriminalisation of prostitution will not benefit the prostitutes who are being sexually exploited... it will benefit the consumers, who are mainly wealthy white men, as they will turn it into an industry they can exploit.’
