Sorry if this has been done but I couldn't spot a thread. A brothel owner from Nevada and his prostitute girlfriend where on This Morning today advocating legalising brothels. They want to speak to Boris Johnson about doing so before the Olympics. He claims that doing so would prevent underage sex trafficking. They came out with all the usual stuff, it's safer for the women (who have to have regular STD and HIV tests as if a 'client' catches HIV the brothel is liable), it's a valid career choice where you can make loads of money in 5 years then retire, legalising it would mean more tax. Apparently we are in the dark ages here.
The woman just made me feel sad.
Holly and Phil did seem to disagree with it but I really wish topics like this were taken seriously and that they would have someone on to voice the downsides rather than just read out statements.
