@[email protected] has moved on Nostr: Issuing sex workers with 'prostitute's cautions' which stay on their criminal record ...

Issuing sex workers with 'prostitute's cautions' which stay on their criminal record (effectively) for life, has the perverse(?) effect of trapping many sex workers in sex work;

if they do try to break away, their past is revealed to prospective employers during a criminal records check... other cautions are 'spent' after six years.

Whatever you think about the plight of sex workers, removing a way out looks like malicious policing not 'justice'!
