What the petition asks
We want government to stop the implementation of the Nordic Model.
Trafficking and consensual sex work is not the same. Trafficking should be tackled as a seperate problem.
Trafficking and consensual sex work is not the same. Trafficking should be tackled as a seperate problem.
Workers all around Glasgow are crying out for parliament to listen to them. We are grown people and should be allowed to work the way we want, and not be penalised for it.
If the Nordic-Model is introduced, criminals will push trafficking further underground.
Please leave us to do what we want.
