Keir Starmer seems to be confused about who's running the country, calling Rishi Sunak "Prime Minister" five times today. It's a sign he isn't taking responsibility for his Government's decisions, says Laurie Wastell.

That no one would willingly engage in sex work, or travel across borders to engage in sex work. And this is a problem precisely because it both hides the labour of sex workers (and the labour of sex in general) and it continues the stigmatisation of sex work, in effect contributing to the policing of sex workers (and accordingly, migrants)."

In the interview with Ana Lopez, she suggests that involvement by women in the sex industry is laregely a matter of choice. In particular she dismisses the idea of widespread sex slavery among eastern European women. This report suggests that the reality is different.
Sex slavery widespread in England
There is evidence of thousands of children working in the sex trade
Young women tricked into coming to England, often by boyfriends, are being sold off in auctions at airport coffee shops as soon as they arrive. They are among the thousands of women brought into the UK to be sex slaves, usually with no idea of their fate.
The trade was one of the findings of a BBC News website investigation into slavery in 21st Century England.
As the UK marks 200 years since the Parliamentary Act to abolish the slave trade, slavery goes on in another form.
The slave trade, outlawed by legislation introduced in March 1807, saw people from Africa transported en masse to the Americas by the UK and other European countries.
