Tuesday 31 March
2pm at the Eros Fountain, Piccadilly Circus
Bring your red umbrellas

Workers in the sex industry and their allies are speaking out against the Policing and Crime Bill.

This Bill will further criminalise those of us in the sex industry in the UK, whether we work by CHOICE, CIRCUMSTANCE or COERCION. It criminalises our clients, increases penalties for soliciting and imposes measures for forced rehabilitation. It is based on a lack of evidence about the sex industry and without taking the views of sex workers and our organisations into account.

The Bill will make it less, not more, safe for us to work, whether as strippers, escorts, working girls, maids or models. It is crucial that the current climate of fear, raids, deportation and arrests be met with solidarity and a demand for justice. It is time to make sure our voices are heard.

Join us.
