Yesterday, Scotland For Decrim protested outside Scottish Parliament to demonstrate sex workers opposition to the proposed introduction of the Nordic Model in Scotland.
Nordic Model laws force us to work in isolation, in areas far from public view and w/o our colleagues.

Packed parliamentary launch of the new report from @ProstitutesColl Brilliant speakers making the case for the decrim with sex workers sharing their stories. It’s important their voices are heard in the debate, so often they are silenced #DecrimNow
