The UK Home Office and @pritipatel are an absolute disgrace

@Alex_B1971 @NationalUglyMug @NevilleSouthall @BACP BACP should certainly watch this:

[National Ugly Mugs @NationalUglyMug]

If you are a sex worker and wish to access respectful and understanding mental health support, NUM's directory of sex worker-friendly therapists provides a list of practitioners across the UK who have pledged to provide which suits your needs.

[National Ugly Mugs @NationalUglyMug]

People turn to counselling and psychotherapeutic support services when they are at their most vulnerable. To push narratives which stereotype, stigmatise and marginalise even further will only cause more harm. This is unacceptable @BACP.

@RYB_UK @ZaraLuxx @Goddess_Cleo @SarahChampionMP @LabourList Reference to our work makes me uncomfortable.Trafficking & child sexual exploitation are serious issues but shouldn’t be conflated with all sex work/prostitution.I worry this is a sledgehammer of a response that risks endangering & further marginalising those it claims to protect

[Siobhán @WellNowUniverse]

How many sex workers and marginalised people have been subjected to increased violence by your support of the Nordic model and refusal to listen to them? You can't be selective about who you advocate for if you truly want violence to end #NoWomanIsLeftBehind

[SWAT-UK @SWAT_UK_]

Discrimination (and stigma) at its finest here…

['Exited woman' apparently @UK_Cunting]

I had a client who couldn't find his watch & basically accused me of stealing it before he found it 20 secs later in his pocket. When I asked him if he was going to apologize to me he said "well sorry but you can't be too careful when with you know *gestures in my direction*"

[English Collective of Prostitutes ♀️ 🏳️‍⚧️ @ProstitutesColl]

Just 7% of trafficking victims given leave to remain in UK.

We’ve been shouting from the rooftops for years that the police raid sex workers’ premises under the guise of looking for victims of trafficking, yet victims get little or no help from the authorities

[Freedom United @freedomunitedHQ]

ICYMI

Data from the last five years shows a dismally low 7% of confirmed trafficking survivors in the U.K. have been given the right to remain in the country, a critical component to recovery.

I’ve lived in the US for most of my life.
Desperate poverty exists there, how can Aimee not know this?

Yes, sex workers have a choice, but that choice is often to do sex work or go without food and shelter for you and your children.

SWERFism is class warfare.

['Exited woman' apparently @UK_Cunting]

Amazing how many ppl trying to make a point about prostitution are freaked the fuck out when a prostitute speaks to them

@VisaUK @anon_gamble Where’s your handy guide explaining Vis’s approach to Amazon…?

[Gabby - Activism/Author Account @TheGabbyMonroe]

@ncose @DawnHawkins33 I'm still waiting on that debate where you said you can shut anyone down.

I'm anyone. Let's do it.

Shut me down dawn... if you can. 😂🤦‍♀️

You ready dawn? 🤔

This your voice, right dawn? 🤔
