There is no such thing as "supporting" S/x workers while punishing buyers. Punishing buyers typically means policing them. Policing buyers means surveilling workers. Period. You cannot separate the two. Police surveillance IS policing. So policing buyers IS policing workers.

Can everyone please write to their MP and ask them to attend the @decrimnow.bsky.social parliament session. Sex work should be decriminalised. The Nordic model that is being proposed puts SWers at higher risk of violence and exploitation, we need full decrim! decrim-email.netlify.app
